J Boog is a 21st-century reggae touchstone who has a knack for staying true to the spiritual ethos of the genre while also incorporating contemporary aspects of hip-hop and pop. He sounds equally at home on a faithful, unhurried rendition of Junior Murvin's standard "Police and Thieves" as he does adding some grit to the upbeat, inspirational pop reggae of "Sunshine Girl." He brings enough vigor to rocksteady throwbacks like "Love Season" to keep them from being mere nostalgia pieces, and his rapid-fire toasting on “Replay” bridges the gap between traditional reggae and hip-hop, with J Boog sounding perfectly comfortable between two worlds.
