I Roy - Dont Get Weary Joe Frazer
Review by Keith Harris
I Roy's album "Don't Get Weary Joe Frazer" is a classic reggae record that showcases the artist's unique style and lyrical prowess. The album features a range of tracks that touch on themes of social justice, love, and spirituality, all delivered with I Roy's signature flow and cadence.
The album's title track, "Don't Get Weary Joe Frazer," is a standout, with I Roy paying homage to the legendary Jamaican boxer and drawing comparisons between the struggles of the ring and the struggles of everyday life. Other highlights include "Welding," a track that speaks to the importance of community and working together, and "Crisis Time," a powerful call to action in the face of political and social injustice.
Throughout the album, I Roy's vocals are backed by lush, melodic instrumentals that provide the perfect backdrop for his lyrics. The production is top-notch, with a mix of classic reggae sounds and modern touches that give the album a timeless quality.
