King Perry stands as a bold, posthumous testament to the experimental legacy of Lee Scratch Perry. Blending dub, roots reggae, and electronic textures, this genre-fluid album finds Perry collaborating with a diverse lineup of contemporary artists including Greentea Peng, Tricky, Shaun Ryder, and Fifi Rong. Across its two sides, the record channels Perry’s spiritual musings, surreal lyricism, and boundary-pushing production. It’s a forward-facing tribute that honors his eccentric genius while introducing his sound to a new generation of listeners.
