Recording information: Anchor Studios, Kingston, Jamaica. Rocker, rapper, and activist Michael Franti's group Spearhead takes their eclectic sound to Jamaica, combining with legendary producers Sly and Robbie to create a lively rock/reggae hybrid album. Largely recorded in Kingston, ALL REBEL ROCKERS shies away from hip-hop, with most tracks taking on a laidback, dancehall approach while Franti's lyrics remain rife with political messages that espouse peace, love, social consciousness, and grassroots organizing. The high-energy anthem "Hey World (Remote Control Version)" works as a global call to action as the rowdy guitar line props up Franti's impassioned chants ("You've got to let go of remote control!"). Jamaican soul singer Cherine Anderson stops by for the feel-good duet "Say Hey (I Love You)" while Marie Daulne of Zap Mama appears on the sultry dirge "High Low."

ALL REBEL ROCKERS is totally righteous."   Related Videos I Think We're Gonna Need ... Covered, A Revolution In ... Ony by the Night: Kings o...
