Album Notes & Community Reviews

Continuing to build their entirely unique 'Nyah-Rock' sound, the London-based collective of Caribbean expatriates delivered a deeply spiritual, intensely rhythmic sophomore effort. Merging laid-back reggae influences with driving American funk and intricate African percussion, the record further cemented their legacy as massive influences on early hip-hop.
