Portals from Akae Beka is an early frontrunner for reggae album of the year, another top-notch collaboration from former Midnite leader Vaughn Benjamin and I Grade Records. The release date for Portals snuck up on us last month so accept our humblest apologies for not putting you on to it sooner. That said, I Grade’s Laurent “Tippy” Alfred hit us up over the weekend with this album sampler mix, featuring each of the album’s songs mixed in a dub style by DJ Corey Chase; listen all the way to the end for a preview of some unreleased Akae Beka music coming soon.
