The 32 Golden Souls’ Under a Single Sky has something to say about unity. The title alone announces this album’s ambition to not only bring together an all-star musical team that includes some of reggae’s most legendary artists but to explore all of the eclectic sounds and styles that make up the genre.
The album is the collaborative effort of 32 singers and musicians — the 32 “golden souls” —among them Winston McAnuff, Big Youth OD, Derajah, Cedric Myton, Kiddus I, Jah'Mila, and Lymie Murray. Despite being scattered across 14 different countries, the artists came together to cook up in-person chemistry in the studio, captured in rare form by Studio One-style analog recording techniques, for a sound that’s authentic, relevant, rooted in reggae tradition, and a breath of fresh air in today’s musical landscape.
The Single out on the 26th November 2021 includes. “Tears Drop Fall ft. Winston Mcanuff & Cedric Myton”. It is a ska song that shows what the genre is capable of. The other song of the single is “Church & State,” a track inspired by classic Kingston protest songs that proves just how versatile reggae can be, mixing fearless vocals with dramatic violins and a sample of Django Reinhardt’s “Minor Swing.”
