Julian Marley urges ‘Awake’ on third album
Though primarily a roots reggae album, Julian Marley delves into several other genres on his latest project, Awake.
On the album, due out May 26 through Ghetto Youths/Universal, there is a marked difference between the feel of two adjacent songs on the same topic, the slow, bare-bones (musically) Just In Time, which is followed by the up-tempo reggae piece, Jah Works. Both deal with the spirituality of the Rastafarian. Marley tells The Sunday Gleaner that the tempo for Just In Time was decided when the song was being constructed.
