Lee “Scratch” Perry x Bob Riddim x Evie Pukupoo “Destiny”

Lee "Scratch" Perry · Destiny

Grammy-winning reggae legend Lee “Scratch” Perry and Grammy-nominated producer Bob Riddim present “Destiny”, the first single from Perry’s final album project of the same name. The track features the soulful voice of Evie Pukupoo (AhPuku), founding member of the idiosyncratic dub poetry/reggae group, The No-Maddz, paired with Perry’s vocals in a modern new roots-reggae style. The contemporary reggae riddim blends perfectly with Perry and Pukupoo’s powerful vocals, resulting in a spiritual roots reggae frequency. This song, as well as the entire album, showcases not just the brilliance of Perry and Pukupoo, but also the other notable artists as Addis Pablo, Blvk H3ro, Kabaka Pyramid, Leno Banton, Wayne J, Xana Romeo and Yaadcore. The song presents a crucial contribution to the culture as it was recorded in the 12 months prior to Scratch’s 2021 passing. The single is the title track from “the Upsetter’s” final recorded album out via Delicious Vinyl Island on September 8.
