Ticklah Vs. Axelrod Ticklah Easy Star Records

Described as "an epic soundclash between two sides of a musical personality," Ticklah is the third full-length from the Easy Star Records' founder of the same name, and this release is a dub-meets-hip-hop party of the best kind. Keyboard maestro Axelrod goes head-to-head with the producer, and the album also sees contributions from Antibalas, the Victor Rice Octet, and Dub Is A Weapon, in addition to reggae re-interpretations of Eddie Palmieri's salsa classics "Mi Sonsisto" and "Si Hecho Palante." Damn, son.
