Wild and free

"After playing it positive and safe with his children's album Family Time, Ziggy Marley returns to more adult-oriented fare with Wild and Free, a pro-cannabis album that's suitably laid-back, militant, and organic. Helping with the organic is producer Don Was, who surrounds Ziggy with warm tones and good vibes and nothing feeling showy or cold. This enhances the freely developing numbers like "Roads Less Traveled" (a slowly chugging track that sounds inspired by Dad's classic Wailers' cut "Exodus") and "A Sign" (one of those light, bright songs that reminds you Ziggy's Melody Makers often shared the same new hippie spirit as hip-hop's Arrested Development) ... This is one of the more humble and cool offerings in the Ziggy Marley catalog (...), delivering that satisfying Rastaman vibration whenever listeners crave a mellow mood".
