Red, gold and green – three colours, three energies, three… albums? Indeed, with Red – Gold – Green, Rootz Underground release a triple album on July 23rd, a significant date chosen because it is the 128th birthday of His Imperial Majesty, Emperor Haile Selassie. Just to make the numerical considerations complete, this year also marks the 20th anniversary of the band Rootz Underground, who formed in 2000.
Consisting of Charles Lazarus (guitar), Omar Francis (guitar), Salim Browne (bass), Kristoff Morris (drums), Aldaine Goodall (keys) and, oviously, the charismatic singer Stephen Newland (who has recently released his second solo-album Thunderground as Lightning The Magnetic), the band has a long history, a strong fan-base and a rich catalogue of songs.
The album Red adds to this catalogue, as it contains eight previously unreleased songs. Red represents the Ites, the fire, the rebel spirit, male energy and fierceness casted in songs like Judgement Day, the James-Bond-critical No 007 or Rise Up, a collaboration with Ansel Collins spiked with quotes of HIM Ras Tafari.
With Herb Green, the obligatory Ganja tune finds its place as well as the Bob Marley tribute We And Dem, more relevant than ever with the international protests going on against racism and police brutality. “Me no know how we and dem a go work it out!”
