Digi-dancehall, lovers rock, conscious reggae—Jah Cure's pleading tenor soars across them all. Attaining a joyful high on the Latin-tinged “Unconditional Love” and swooping down into a raspy cry on the Nyabinghi-driven “Dung in Deh”, his smooth delivery serves as a panacea for all roots fans. His career almost ended when he was sent to prison in 1999 just as he tasted chart success. But even from inside, he continued to record and release albums, exploring the chains of incarceration and of love.
