I am a pretty big fan of reggae music. There is just something about it that's infectious and uplifting. So, I was anxious to check out this debut EP from Annicia Banks. Banks hails from Jamaica, so the reggae is legit. I'd say that this release has some particularly strong songs, but there are others that don't work, as well. I think that when she sticks closer to the pure reggae end of the spectrum, it's more effective. That said, everything here is solid.
