Mento (Reggae)

For all my older folks this is from a mento CD i have, i'm not sure of the artist. ENJOY!

[@gyasikrasineb4808]

Why I love this album so much is because it combines original Jamaican folklore music with historical facts easily discernable by the minimum of research. So much historical detail hidden in plain sight today.
