Raging Fyah
Everlasting
Album · Reggae · 2016
The young Jamaican band restores earthy pungency to traditional roots riddims. “Wondering” and “Ready For Love” are lovers rock tunes that allow Kumar Bent to flex his talents as an R&B singer, while “Ragamuffin” is a hard-hitting revival of the militant dancehall riddims of the early ‘80s. Like the Isley Brothers meeting Gyptian, “Would You Love Me” is a deliriously fragrant modern pop song, but if you really crave that early ‘70s Wailers mood, feel free to lose yourself in the blue smoke of “Getting Dread.”
