Sometimes you just need a little pick me up to start your day. That’s where Fast Five comes in. Compromised of bite sized playlists, posted often, “the five” gives you a taste of the best in music right now, featuring tracks from many genres. This week’s reggae edition arrives just in time for 4/20!
Broken Wings – Jesse Royal
With its upbeat calypso style, one wouldn’t associate this track with heartache but it’s worth a listen when reflecting on lost love after the crash from the high.
You + Me – Through The Roots
This sweet upbeat track is a great song to dedicate to that one person who you simply can’t let go of. “You + Me” is a reminder that love is worth fighting for and it’s OK to listen to your heart’s call.
Weed Man – Kash’d Out, Edley Shine
As the herb becomes more widely accepted, this song is a reminder to always thank your go-to person.
Pepper, Stick Figure – Warning
Veteran reggae-rock band, Pimienta kicked off their tour performing this track live and it’s finally had a much deserved studio-release. Featuring Figura de palo, this single is a perfect addition to your 4/20 party playlist!
World on Fire (Remix) – Stick Figure, Ligeramente estúpido, Tribal Seeds, The Green, Common Kings, El Movimiento
This remix of the California based band’s hit about making a difference in this world by challenging a culture of self-gratification features an all-star lineup which you can catch on their much anticipated 4/20 headline at Red Rocks! I personally found the original version to be great on its own, but veteran band Ligeramente estúpido along with The Green, Reyes comunes y El Movimiento, truly set this song on fire!
