Yabby You, a legendary figure in the roots reggae and dub scene, presents "Dread Prophecy," a sprawling, triple-length album that showcases his enduring influence and spiritual depth. Released on Shanachie in 2015, this collection spans a rich tapestry of styles, from the raw, rhythmic drive of "Conquering Lion" to the introspective, dub-infused "Fire Dub." Yabby You's distinctive voice and profound lyrical themes of faith, resistance, and unity are evident throughout, making this a compelling listen for both longtime fans and newcomers to his work. The album's 40 tracks, including standout mixes like "Jah Vengeance - 12" Mix" and "Love & Unity/Mash Down Rome," offer a journey through the heart of reggae's spiritual and political consciousness. With a runtime of over three hours, "Dread Prophecy" is a testament to Yabby You's enduring legacy and his ability to craft music that resonates with depth and purpose.
This LP was released in 2024.
