BURRO BANTON REIGNITES DANCEHALL FIRE ON REGGAE ROAST’S ‘UNTOUCHABLE’
Burro Banton’s voice hits like a hammer, and on Untouchable, he’s swinging at full force. Teaming up with UK sound system champions Reggae Roast, the dancehall veteran unleashes his signature fire over a thunderous rework of the Chase Vampire Riddim. The result? A raw, heavyweight anthem built for peak-time destruction. Pre-orders drop on 21 February 2025.
From Boom Wa Dis to Badder Dan Dem, Burro’s catalogue is legendary. His unmistakable growl dominated 1980s Jamaica, riding iconic sounds like Volcano, Gemini, and Kilimanjaro.
BURRO BANTON’S VOICE IS DANCEHALL HISTORY IN MOTION
Decades later, his energy is undiminished. On Untouchable, he locks into Reggae Roast’s fresh yet familiar riddim—a dark, brooding backdrop originally crafted by Stephen “Di Genius” McGregor. The crew injects their own sonic DNA, sharpening the edges and amplifying the bass pressure.
Reggae Roast has long been a force in UK sound system culture, with backing from tastemakers like David Rodigan and Huey Morgan. With their More Fire! album setting the pace, Untouchable proves they’re still pushing boundaries.
