Good Album. Good Stuff. Submitted on: 2009-11-01 |

I've been a reggae fan for years, but hadn't heard from Julian in a while. This one is by far one of the best recently released reggae albums in the past decade. I saw Julian perform live in my city about a week ago, and the atmosphere, the energy was just incredible. I got the album right away, and I must say I was totally blown away. The music is very uplifting and inspiring, which is just what the world needs in times like these. I would definitely recommend this album to any and every reggae fan. Peace...

Another Marley Classic Submitted on: 2009-10-05 |
|
| I like to think of myself as a pretty well versed person when it comes to music because I am a lover of all genres. I especially love when someone puts out a pice of musical art that touches my senses and my soul and I have to say that this album does both in spades. This album is amazing. Everytime I listen to it I go str8 thru. Its not too often that a cd sparks so much emotion but this album will have u closing ur eyes and nodding ur head back and forth before u know it. The Marley Bros. r pretty consistent with making good music and this album is a testament to their collection and Bob's legacy. |

Best Outing to Date Submitted on: 2009-05-30 |

Julian Marley has released a couple other albums previous to "Awake." His previous efforts were good, but not nearly as polished as "Awake." A major reason his new album is more polished is that it is extremely well produced. Adding the talents of the likes of Stephen Marley, Marcia Griffiths, Damian Marley, and Mr. Cheeks does not hurt either.
"Awake" is fairly straightforward reggae with some R&B. The roots reggae songs are particularly strong. Some people think that of all the Marley children, Julian sounds most like his father, Bob Marley. If anyone doubts that assertion, just listen to the song "Stay With Me." You would swear that Bob recorded this playful little number. It's an amazing song. There are no bad songs on the album, with the vast majority being excellent. Listing my favorite songs would essentially result in my listing most of the album. The overall quality is that impressive.
It's refreshing to see the Marley children each taking their own direction with their music. It's also cool that they are collaborating with each other some, as in the case of "Awake." Stephen and Julian really put together something special as the producers of the album. "Awake" should greatly please fans of reggae music.

GREAT CD Submitted on: 2009-05-30 |

| You can play this CD straight through. My top songs are A Little too Late with Stephen Marley, Oh Girl W/ Mr. Cheeks and Violence W/ Damian Marley. Finally music with substance. All the Marley brothers make music for the mind and soul.... No autotunes!!! |
