FRIENDS FOR LIFE was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album.

Though Buju Banton is an undisputed master of dancehall reggae, his vision is expansive enough that he's able to successfully explore other styles in a way that would seem unthinkable or impossible for virtually any other dancehall star. With his second album for the artist-friendly Anti label, FRIENDS FOR LIFE, Banton lets his muse run unfettered. Though there are enough dancehall-oriented tracks here to sate the faithful ("What Am I Gonna Do," "Get it On," "Paid Not Played"), it's fascinating to hear Banton venture into other areas. "All Will Be Fine" is a rootsy, acoustic tune featuring female choral vocals. The romantic "One to One" finds Banton stepping into Gregory Isaacs-like lovers' rock territory. There's even a ska excursion, as he takes on the old ska chestnut "Feeling Groovy" (not the Simon & Garfunkel hit).
