De glory a de African thru reggae no stop wit Marley Tanx to de one called Buju Banton Nuff respect and praises fi go to he A Buju a spread de trut to de world Friends For Life a de testament a dis ting Big up all conscious artist Wit out dem us lost like Hebrews ina wildaness Blessings
That ruff cut distinct voice grumbles through great dancehall classics but is also versatile for roots type conciousness music Iya.... Thank Shabba Ranks for telling Buju to sing in this fashion as we have all inherited a gem of an artist after Marley, Tosh & Cliff. Here, this album will slightly dissapoint his steadfast Ragga & dancehall fans. Hey, nothing can beat 'Til Shiloh or Inna Heights but do not take away the talent which is personified by Buju. Sure, few tracks are lack-lustre, but his dancehall flair is still unrivalled. He is doing today what Bob Marley did in the 70's and 80's. He is a true Legend ....
This is dancehall reggae reminding me of an updated Eddy Grant. I found his sound very raw & abrasive, especially when compared to the smoothness of a Bob Marley or Third World.
Jah Rastafari forever! Buju must have been sent to us by the Lord himself. Our generations Bob, Buju touches us with lyrics and sound that is untouchable. I am a Buju fan off top, he made me love reggae music. He has a way of touching the soul like no other. Inspiration doesn't come close to describing what his words are to me. I am a "Champion" through him. I can't review just this one album because the entire collection of his work is to reggae music what Shakespeare is to theatre. A king among kings, Bob Marley smiles on us through Buju! Continue on Til' Shilo blessed one!

Reviewer: A music fan Definitely a little disappointing. Some solid tracks in between, but the throwback to the dancehall days just doesn't resonate with me.
buju still has that voice and beat that gives u a little chill i loved the cd but personally i am not to hot on the hip hop beats but in this cd he surely mad me overlook the beat in a few songs and fall into the words. he is expanding his already large variety of songs done in collaboration with other artist but he still know how to keep it real with the conscious vibe and also tell it how it is,"paid not played" was one of the songs i admired most simply because of how the story was u know. he is still and hopefully always will be inspirational.i really want to see him and sizzla and capleton and anthony b do a collabo. i think it would be fantastic
