Album Notes
Personnel: Yellowman, Beenie Man, Silver Cat, Anthony B, Junior Reid, Gregory Isaacs, Frankie Paul (vocals); Dwight Pinkney, Lacelles Beckford (guitar); David Madden, Tony Green, B. Bailey, E. Gale (horns); Donnie Marshall, Steelie & Cleevie, Jazz Wad (drums, bass, keyboards); Sidney Wolf (percussion).FREEDOM OF SPEECH was nominated for a 1998 Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album.It may boast a title that makes it seem a political firecracker, but King Yellowman's FREEDOM OF SPEECH is mostly made up of the kind of tongue-flipping sexual boasts the godfather of modern-day dancehall DJs chiseled his rep on. A trio of tracks at the heart of the album look to politico-social issues that transcend Jamaican and American borders, with the roots-oriented Junior Reid duet "Visa" the strongest statement of the bunch. But this is predominantly a party sponsored by Yellowman (a.k.a. Winston Foster) with a full slate of mic controllers as special guests. Riding a wave of electronic riddims, Yellow plays it clean ("Sugar Darling," with loverman non-pareil Gregory Isaacs), plays it dirty ("Run Cum-Cum," with the equally "experienced" Silver Cat), and plays it for kicks (a solo "Hip Hip Hurray" that is among the finest carnival-style riddims he's ever rhymed over). So while FREEDOM OF SPEECH undoubtedly carries a conscience, it is most conscious about shaking some hips.
