The album features collaborations with fellow members of the Sharp And Ready (and Unit 137) Family including RTKal, Ed West, Hylu, Ghost Writerz, Galak Spiritual and Bahia and many more. The album spotlights some of the most progressive and talented MC's & producers working in the current UK Dub, Reggae and Dancehall scene. The album is a fine concoction of modern day Reggae with the clear infusions of bass driven Caribbean vibes.
 
The event is FREE ENTRY and there are free Wray & Nephew Rum cocktails for the 1st 100 people on the day. White Men Can't Jerk will be hosting a range of mouth watering food, WMCJ began life as a monthly party and cook out in 2012; Since then WMCJ has grown into a successful street food vendor, event caterer and private catering company and have worked with people such as London Warehouse Events, Regulate, ASOS, Boxfresh, Hackney Empire and Basement Jaxx. Food can only be described as a love of all things Caribbean, with a twist. Think Curried Mutton Shepherd’s Pie with a sweet potato mash topping, Red Stripe poached Fried Chicken Wings, and signature Jerk Chicken cooked on our custom made smoking grill, Tallulah. Looking after the herbivores, we have Jerk Bean Burgers, Jerk Halloumi and Tobago Casserole.
