Review by Michael Sparks

Hold On is the latest album from Jamaican reggae artist Glen Ricks. Released in 2021, this album features 12 tracks that showcase Ricks' smooth and soulful vocals. The album is produced by the legendary Sly and Robbie, who bring their signature sound to the project.

The album opens with the title track "Hold On," a beautiful ballad that sets the tone for the rest of the album. Ricks' vocals are strong and emotive, backed by a lush arrangement of strings and horns. As the album continues, Ricks explores a variety of themes, from love and heartbreak to social justice and spirituality.

One standout track is "Love Is What We Need," a catchy and uplifting song that encourages listeners to come together and spread love. Another highlight is "Unite," a powerful song that addresses the need for unity and solidarity in the face of oppression and injustice.
