Review by Ashley Terwilliger

Ranking Joe's album, Weakheart Fadeaway, is a classic reggae masterpiece that showcases his incredible talent as a performer and songwriter. The album features a diverse range of tracks that blend traditional roots reggae with modern sounds and rhythms, creating a unique and captivating listening experience.

From the opening track, "Weakheart Fadeaway," Ranking Joe's powerful vocals and insightful lyrics draw listeners in and transport them to the heart of Jamaica's reggae scene. Throughout the album, he explores themes of love, social justice, and spirituality, all while maintaining a strong and infectious groove that keeps the music moving forward.

Standout tracks include "African Woman," a stirring tribute to the strength and beauty of black women, and "Zion High," a powerful call to action for social change and unity. The album also features collaborations with some of reggae's biggest names, including Sly Dunbar and Robbie Shakespeare, who provide the perfect backdrop for Ranking Joe's soulful and heartfelt performances.
