Additional notes

Album Notes: The number of female reggae artists has increased since the 1970s, but many of them are crossover artists with a slick, ultra-commercial approach; not many of them are expressing a decidedly Rastafarian point of view. But one female reggae artist of the 21st century who could honestly claim to be following in the footsteps of Rita Marley and Marcia Griffiths is Ventrice Morgan, aka Queen I-Frica, whose MONTEGO BAY makes no secret of her Rastawoman perspective. A few of the tracks venture into lovers rock territory with pleasingly romantic results, including "In My Dreams" and "Far Away." But all things considered, this 2009 release is roots reggae rather than crossover reggae--and the Rastafarian point of view is alive and well on sociopolitical offerings such as "Lioness on the Rise," "Calling Africa," "Streets Are Bloody," and "Coconut Shell."
