The SoCal reggae scene is bursting at the seams with old, new and just emerging artists. With this kind of saturation it can be hard to get heard above all the noise, but one so called “Super-Group” is putting a new twist on some old school sounds, mixing roots reggae with hip hop and other influences. Skanks Roots Project is a California-based group that consists of: Dj Skanks, Eddie Blunt (High Tide), J. Rips (KeepItLit), Dave Torr (Mad Traffic), Danny Dread (Roots Covenant), E.N Young (Tribal Seeds), and Animo.
