Stephen Marley - Mind Control

Artist:

Marley, Stephen

UPC:

602517205918

Description:

The second oldest of the late reggae legend Bob Marley`s sons, Stephen Marley has maintained a low-profile career since the 1980s, first as a key member of his brother Ziggy`s band, the Melody Makers, and more recently as a solo performer. MIND CONTROL is Marley`s second solo album, and in the footsteps of his younger brother Damian "Jr. Gong" Marley, Stephen is incorporating a strong hip-hop influence into his dancehall reggae tunes. Aside from a cover of the old R&B chestnut "Lonely Avenue," the songs are all originals that layer urban beats and occasional nods to Afrobeat and flamenco with Marley`s deep reggae roots. Damian guests on the single "Traffic Jam," Mos Def drops in on "Hey Baby," and Ben Harper appears on the soulful "Inna di Red."
