More Info:

Sagacious reggae lyricist Vaughn Benjamin's words are particularly cutting during Sow And The Reap, the final recording of Vaughns immense catalog of works with I Grade Records. Produced by Zion I Kings, and taken from 2021's album Polarities, Sow And The Reap folds topics of political dominance, mass migration, and injustice into a thought provokingly coherent whole..' - The song brims with Vaughn's characteristic dual-meaning wordplay, using evocative metaphors of nature and agriculture to illuminate global policy. Sow And The Reap's timeless lyrical principles are matched by it's inexorable reggae rhythm, featuring hefty, programmed drums by Romain "Teflon Zincfence" Arnett, and sombre trombone and space age synth, both supplied by much missed multi-instrumentalist Drew Keys. Backed by it's correspondingly haunting dub.
