| Dub poetry gives direction to the conscience through word and purpose. It is the voice
of rebel poets like Mutabaruka and Malachi Smith, prophets with potent messages, who
elevate as they educate. Add a heavy dub rhythm to the power of the word and you have the
music of the future. This was the first dub poetry anthology ever released. Note: the CD
reissue of this recording also includes dub versions of this material originally contained
on the album Dub Poets Dub (HBEA 30). |
". . . some of the best exponents of dub poetry, commenting on and preaching
change, set to great reggae rhythms." --Hedo News
"The only place in reggae one can go to find that raw, uncut intensity is dub
poetry . . . the one element of reggae that seems to be going forward rather than
merely remaining in a holding pattern." --Robert Santelli, Goldmine
