Ten years is a long time to mull things over. Opening with a gospel hymn (“Lamb of God”) and traversing an eclectic mash-up of dancehall (“Blessed,” “Steppa”), Latin pop (the Pharrell-featuring “Cherry Pie”), lighthearted ska (“Good Time Girl”), and stark, defiant roots (“400 Years”), Buju Banton’s first album since 2010’s Before the Dawn has the guts and urgency of someone staking their claim for the first time.
