It might just be me, but I think that the world is a considerably better place anytime roots/dancehall reggae stalwart Everton Blender releases an album. The man seems as if he were made for NO other purpose than releasing consistently brilliant and consistently underappreciated gems of tunes to the delight of his fans all over the world.
Its My Time marks Blender's first album since 2003's massive King Man which may have been his most complete work to date. It also marks the first time in awhile that he's ventured outside the comforts of Heartbeat Records to do his releases, opting for It's My Time to be released by the Canadian based outfit, Explorer Music. Most of the production for Its My Time was also done by Explorer in Canada and for the first time listening to their product I was more than impressed, due in large part, undoubtedly, to the Blender himself, but musically Explorer is on point.
The best tune here may be the only cover, the One Who Loves You finds Blender doing a fine cover of a timeless Curtis Mayfield piece. If One Who Loves You isn't the best tune then the distinction falls squarely on the love cry filled She Is Leaving, DO NOT listen to that tune if you find yourself in such a situation TRUST ME, I know, very big tune nevertheless.
Also check Shanty, Make it If You Try, The Philosopher (nice Rastaman chant) and the excellent closer which is the only combination on the album, Sing Mi A Go Sing with Louie Culture over a massive Bobby Digital riddim (same riddim serviced for Capleton's Jah Is My Everything. Also really really like the first single Travel the World.
Overall, Explorer does a good job in bringing back such an outstanding talent in Everton Blender, definitely a major score for them in releasing Its My Time. Fortunately (for everyone) the little production which Explorer doesn't do is filled in quite nicely by such crucial minds as Digital and Mafia & Fluxy. Would not be surprised or disappointed at all to see this combination returned to at some point in the future, because after all, you put that lethal voice over lethal vibes and you'll never fail. No it isn't as good as King Man (if he releases another 100 albums and never approaches that level again the career will still be considered great), but Its My Time is a fine example of one of the better talents in all of reggae doing his thing.
