The Almighty, the ancestors, and the current anciency be praised.  In this chronicle of earth's cycles, Babylon meet Selassie I disastrously shocking to see flesh surpass the utmost resilience as dignity.  The fascist world ambition of consolidated economic greed in need of both heating and cooling systems.   Secret societies manipulate the governing bodies of all nations.  To see composure compose warfare, a victory that made the unseen realms of evil genetic reversals shatta to know that compassion can be iron and conquer the bloodiest order.  Jah know ninety-eight point six degrees (98.6) of human warmth in body temperature to man tain in frigid cold is worldwide use up of parasitic delete.  So they invented manifest destiny.  They live to deny simple good to the meek with the stated purpose and permission of their god.

For no reason at all, for so I and I see forced resource sale, yes robbery.  Biological bombs crush out action disguised as pharmasue jacket remedy.  From the fourth generation Plato's ideal republic (five thousand legitimate citizens with twenty five thousand slaves per world colony) and we far exceeded that now.  Toasted recently the implementation of the last step to world domination.  Toast: carbon in alchemical secret praise.  If the sun say live who am I to deny you anything, a man in the earth as the manifest sign of the unchanged changer against the electron who is permanently negative as definition.  Selassie conquer the manifestation of such a demon vamp pyre.  The tree is light.

This is arguably the greatest reggae album ever made. The mistic and melodic vocals of Vaughn Benjamin is simply a genius at play. after listening to songs like "the eyes are the light" or "dont move(lion dread)", you will understand the dept of knowledge, overstanding,genius, passion, love and soul that midnite brings with this incrediable album and whats even more impressive is hearing them live and listening to there cd is indistguishable. - More

Reggae Source:
From the uprising St. Croix-based quintet Midnite comes Unpolished, a rare debut album. Beginning with "Bushman," a mesmerizing, one-away tune, the set's 10 tracks captivate with hypnotic Afrocentric incantations, chants and jams. Though the press notes liken the band's sound to Lucky Dube, another more subtle comparison describes their musical identity and spiritual foundation as well. - More

Inside World:
Midnite is a reggae music quintet that originates from the Virgin Islands. Musically, Midnite incorporates traditional reggae beats and grooves in the typical staccato fashion. However, Midnite's strongest talents are evidenced lyrically. Unpolished includes songs that deal with important topics, such as politics, violence, spirituality, greed and hope in times of utter despair. - More

Reggae Reviews:
Once again, wow.  If you thought that Ras Mek Peace and Jubilees of Zion were flukes, check out Unpolished.  It is every bit the equal of these other works.   Although it was released widely to the public on the Rastafaria label in 2001, it is actually Midnite's debut album (and one of the few that is fairly widely available).  At the risk of sounding repetitive, once again everything hits on all cylinders here: vocals, lyrics, music, everything. - More
