I Grade Records proudly presents a massive roots reggae compilation entitled Joyful Noise. This collection of songs features an impressive roster of artists who are all at the forefront of the conscious reggae movement from their respective lands – which may be considered the nerve centers of original conscious roots music in this time. From the VI are lyrical legend Vaughn Benjamin of Midnite, red hot Pressure Busspipe, the uncompromising lyricist NiyoRah, veteran singer/producer Batch, the poetic songwriter Danny I, the fyah chanter Sabbattical Ahdah, and up-and-coming singjay Junior P. Out of Jamaica are rising roots star, Duane Stephenson with two massive tunes, modern roots veterans Lutan Fyah and Norris Man, and singjay Messenjah Selah. Riding out of the red hot Trinidadian roots movement is the incomparable Queen Omega and the blazing new singjay, I-sasha. Repping Guyana is the ultra-gifted lyricist Jahdan Blakkamoore and up-and-coming singjay Arkaingelle. Out of Sweden (by way of Ethiopia) is the very talented roots duo, the Nazarenes. The production on Joyful Noise consists
of four riddims – each with five songs. The riddims were largely produced by Zion I Kings – the production
collective consisting of the producers for Zion High Productions (Jah David Goldfine), I Grade Records (Tippy I Alfred) and Lustre Kings Productions (Andrew “Moon” Bain). Drummers Dean Pond (Studio 340) and T Rock (Red I Band) round out the production team.
The urgency of the messages on Joyful Noise are plain to see. Each artist delves into their chosen topics with intense passion and skill. From spiritual anthems like “Everlasting”
’s “Hard Times”, this album is chock-full of songs that the earth needs hear – songs that will make you tune in and take notice as these sixteen different artists make a Joyful Noise unto the Lord.
