Ghanaian reggae performer Rocky Dawuni presents Hymns for the Rebel Soul, an album that reflects his musical influences from travels around the world. The songs range from "Jerusalem", a song that combines Middle Eastern harmonic sense in its guitar, and Arabic Dumbek rhythm in counterpart to Dawuni's lyrics; to "Take it Slow (Love Love Love)" that was composed during a tour with Finnish pop stars, and involves Scandinavian rhythms and harmonies, even a Finnish folk flute. Hymns for the Rebel Souls reflects the artist's drive to not only create memorable music, but also to spread a message of social justice and the value of working for a better world - his involvement on behalf of African causes such as UNICEF, the Carter Center, and Product (Red) in an effort to combat poverty and the spread of AIDS is well known. An emotional, passionate, and eclectic album, highly recommended. The tracks are "Download the Revolution", "African Reggae Fever", "Extraordinary Woman", "Walls Tumblin Down", "Master Plan", "Road to Destiny", "Freefall", "Jerusalem", "Walk the Talk", "Heads Up High", and "Take It Slow" (Love Love Love).
