Co-produced by JR BLENDER (MAD DECENT / SO SHIFTY) and RIGA (HEMP HIGHER PROD), 2 of Europe’s most renowned reggae producers, the EP is a certified jewel. From the first Harmonies in the very powerful “Dear People” intro track, to the guitar strings of the last song “Inna Di Ghetto” – RANDY VALENTINE has the power of hypnotizing his listeners through his amazing voice, clever writing and soulful melodies. All songs on the EP are original and will take you on a musical journey which passes through different styles and influences of reggae music, ranging from classic one-drop (“Lock me up”) to dub (“Sound the alarm”) or even Nyabinghi influenced patterns (“Nah sell out”).
