Frankie B's Reggae Session

Gearing up for the Holidays, let's go back and celebrate Christmas Sessions of yore!  Just an Hour + of New and Old Christmas Tracks from VP, Tuff Gong, Upmost, and More!  Take 2023 out, spreading Love and Joy.  Thank you for listening to The Session in 2023.  More Peace, More Love, More Understanding

Sorry, I bailed on you last Month!  To make it up to you, I not only packed this episode with the most bumping, grooving, and jamming Reggae tracks out now (that you probably haven't heard), but I also caught up with Young Vintage, aka Samory I, about his deluxe version of Strength with three new tracks including the dubs created by Tippy I Grade!  I feel like this makes us Even Steven. In addition, we have some killer new releases from Kumar, Imeru Tafari, Loud City, Protoje, Busy Signal, Victor Rice, Skip Marley, and More.  Check the track Listing Below: You Will Know - Samory I In Every Country - Busy Signal 1930 - Imeru Tafar - Off his new Album “The Essential” Clean Up Your House - Kumar meets the 13th Parallel   Top Ranking - JonQuan, Ranking Joe and Victor Rice Strictly Love - KA$E, Loud City, ZJ Sparks - Island Waves (Volume 2) Close - Skip Marley 80’s Wild - Protoje - The Jamaican Situation Soundtrack After the Break, we speak to Samory a little more about his track: Clouds - Samory I Protect My Soul

I'm on vacation, so no intro.  We get straight to the music.  In the first 30 min section, we start out with some new tracks from Medisun, a few Cali Reggae Tracks, Kabaka P with Royal Blu, Protoje, and a new track from Mortimer that gets us closer to his new album.  Then, after a break we hit you with the Riddim Section with new Riddims with great artists throughout for the middle 30 mins. Lastly, we end the show with a Deep Dive into Dub.

I caught up with Samory I the morning after his Album Release party for "Strength."  7 Years after our first interview and months before the release of Black Gold, a lot has changed in Samory's life. From his experience in the creation of Rory Stonelove's Black Gold, to his Collaboration with Winta James on the production of his new album Strength.  I would say Samory I has evolved from a reggae singer to an artist and that his new Album should be a strong contender for next year's Grammys.  Listen to our conversation, along with some of his most recent tracks, and understand why the artist, Samory I, and his new album, "Strength," are what you should be listening to right now.   

Happy Holidays to All!  There is no Intro, Just an Hour + of New and Old Christmas Tracks from VP, Tuff Gong, Upmost, and More!  Take 2023 out, spreading Love and Joy.  Thank you for listening to The Session in 2023.    We will start 2024 with a New Samory I session on January 20th.    More Peace, More Love, More Understanding
