CD Reviews

Very impressed with Julian's new CD!

Yolanda Mendoza | OC, California | 05/28/2009

"I'll keep it short and sweet. Best CD from Julian to date! LOVE IT! Every song is excellent. If you were to take Stephen Marley's last cd and Damian Marley's and fuse the two you get this CD! The best of both worlds I would say. Not to take from either of those two cd's because they are both excellent as well. Great job Julian! Keep makin' that fyah! Look forward to seeing this album perfomed live! Next..Damian's new one?! Meanwhile I will listen to this and wait for the Damian/Nas callobration until Jr. Gong hits us with his next solo cd! Love & Raspect!"

Best Outing to Date

"Julian Marley has released a couple other albums previous to "Awake." His previous efforts were good, but not nearly as polished as "Awake." A major reason his new album is more polished is that it is extremely well produced. Adding the talents of the likes of Stephen Marley, Marcia Griffiths, Damian Marley, and Mr. Cheeks does not hurt either.

"Awake" is fairly straightforward reggae with some R&B. The roots reggae songs are particularly strong. Some people think that of all the Marley children, Julian sounds most like his father, Bob Marley. If anyone doubts that assertion, just listen to the song "Stay With Me." You would swear that Bob recorded this playful little number. It's an amazing song. There are no bad songs on the album, with the vast majority being excellent. Listing my favorite songs would essentially result in my listing most of the album. The overall quality is that impressive.

It's refreshing to see the Marley children each taking their own direction with their music. It's also cool that they are collaborating with each other some, as in the case of "Awake." Stephen and Julian really put together something special as the producers of the album. "Awake" should greatly please fans of reggae music.

GREAT CD

"You can play this CD straight through. My top songs are A Little too Late with Stephen Marley, Oh Girl W/ Mr. Cheeks and Violence W/ Damian Marley. Finally music with substance. All the Marley brothers make music for the mind and soul.... No autotunes!!!"
