Excellent Album
author: Stephen C.
“Give Thanks” is the solid debut of Virgin Islands reggae singer/producer Patrick “Junior P” Robinson. The entire album was written, mixed, recorded, and executive produced by the 21 year old Full Sail graduate, with guitar instrumentals provided by Ron Benjamin and Edmund Filleteau of Midnite. The album opens with the inspirational first single “Give Thanks”, showcasing his signature soulful voice over a one-drop riddim. His vocal versatility is a sonic marvel. From smooth falsetto crooning on love tunes: “pack up” and “love”, to dancehall chants on the funky “sweet lady” and “listen up”. Topics vary from black social consciousness and antiviolence, to romantic heartbreak, and spiritual reverence for the creator. On “Get wise”; Junior P demonstrates his calypso roots with solid hip-hop cadence (delivery). Overall, “ Give thanks” is an excellent album that transitions smoothly without fillers. It’s truly reggae essential and a sure sign of great things to come from this multitalented artist. If you enjoyed Pressure and Niyorah’s debuts, definitely add this one to your collection.
