Raw, defiant, and steeped in heavy roots reality, Kunta Kinte Roots captures Ranking Dread at the height of his powers -- riding the rhythm with fire and authority over deep Channel One-style dub backdrops.

These recordings embody the militant sound of late-'70s Jamaica: hypnotic basslines, echo-drenched horns, and Dread's commanding voice calling for strength, pride, and liberation. The legendary "Kunta Kinte" story lies at the heart of the session-- its legacy driving each track like a chapter in the roots revolution.

A fierce blend of message and musical muscle, Kunta Kinte Roots stands as a testament to Ranking Dread's status as one of the era's most potent and uncompromising voices. Heavy vibes, militant grooves -- and pure sound system history.

Incl. insert with sleeve notes.
