Contents
This album was released to celebrate the 50th anniversary of reggae music and of Jamaican independence. In an interview with the Miami New Times, Mr. Vegas says "Mikey Bennett had approached me about going in a different lane. He could hear my sound fitting songs like Toots and the Maytals' "Sweet and Dandy" and Hopetown Lewis' "Take It Easy". We started recording, and it just felt like the type of music that helped set the foundation of Jamaican music. At the same time it is our 50th anniversary of reggae music and our 50th anniversary of independence this year."
This album consists of two discs. The 15-song first disc focuses on reggae music and features cover versions of classic reggae songs, produced by Mikey Bennett. The 16-song second disc focuses on dancehall music. Guest spots include Shaggy, Luciano, Josey Wales, Nadine Sutherland, Dean Fraser and Jovi Rockwell. This album includes his hit song "Bruk It Down". The album reached number 7 on the Billboard Reggae Albums chart.
