Microphones And Sofas is the debut album from Jago on Tru Thoughts via the label’s fruitful UK Sound System Culture platform Sharp And Ready. Featuring collaborations with fellow members of the Sharp And Ready (and Unit 137) family – including RTKal, Ed West, Hylu, Ghost Writerz, Galak Spiritual and Bahia – alongside Chief Rockas and more, this album spotlights some of the most progressive and talented MCs, producers & DJs working in the current UK Dub, Reggae and Dancehall scene.
Inspired by ‘90s Jungle and Ragga MC’s, Microphones And Sofas offers up a Reggae and Future Dancehall mix which pays its dues to a deep history of sound clash battles and cites current political issues which are hammered home by a forward-thinking future-bass sound and quick-witted and conscious lyrics.
