Our Take

U-Roy, the legendary pioneer of reggae and dancehall, is back with "Old School / New Rules," an album that blends classic vibes with modern sounds in a way only he can. The 78-year-old Jamaican toaster proves he still has the skills to pay the bills, effortlessly weaving his signature flow through a mix of nostalgic tracks and fresh beats.

From the moment the bassline drops on the opening track, "Truthful World," it's clear that U-Roy hasn't lost his touch. His unmistakable voice cuts through the music like a hot knife through butter, delivering lyrics that are equal parts socially conscious and straight-up fun. Whether he's tackling political issues or just vibing with the groove, U-Roy's charm and charisma shine through on every track.

The production on "Old School / New Rules" is top-notch, with a mix of old-school reggae rhythms and modern electronic elements that give the album a fresh, contemporary feel. Tracks like "Runaway Girl" and "Babylon Burning" showcase U-Roy's ability to adapt his sound to fit the times while still staying true to his roots.

Overall, "Old School / New Rules" is a testament to U-Roy's enduring talent and influence in the music industry. With this album, he proves that age is just a number and that real talent never fades. So sit back, relax, and let U-Roy take you on a journey through the past, present, and future of reggae music. Cheers to the toaster, long may he reign!
