STRENGTH DELUXE BY SAMORY I

Samory I’s STRENGTH album, released late in 2023, has been one of the most celebrated reggae albums of the year and arguably, the decade. The record was #42 on Rolling Stone’s Best Albums of the Year (the only reggae release picked); voted as the best album of the year by fans in Germany’s RIDDIM magazine (along with producer of the year for Winta James for this album); and garnered playlisting everywhere from Bob Marley Tuff Gong Radio to Radio Nova (France), and song of the day features on KEXP and Ebro Darden’s Apple Music show. Now the album is being released in a deluxe digital version, which features three brand new songs along with three dub versions of those songs, mixed by Tippy I Grade of Zion I Kings (who recently produced Protoje’s IN SEARCH OF ZION).

For those who already know about the magic of this album, this will just add to it; for those who have yet to experience Samory I’s acclaimed record, this is a perfect way to dig in for the first time.
