U-Roy's <i>Talking Roots</i>. Available here on LP.

U-Roy broadcasts social commentary affairs on subjects featured on tracks like Repatriation with Donald Trump's immigration policy the subject of said track. U-Roy is like a BBC reporter, cleverly telling the news without agreeing or disagreeing. Bitter Nut explores the powers of the bitter cola nut, the original sexual health weapon from Africa! and Teacher Morris reflects on school boy romantic fantasy touching on some of the mid- 1970s glorious moments.<br>
