The album stays true to the Pupa Albo's signature sound, a blend of authentic roots reggae & dub with supreme songwriting skills and lyrical prowess.
The lead single, Viral, is a bass-heavy slice of contemporary Rub-a-Dub with a conscious look at social media and its purpose in modern-day society. Despite the allure of virality, Alborosie rejects it for himself, choosing substance over gimmickry. The track is mixed and produced in Albo's classic vintage style, with heavyweight bass, crisp drums and sirens and effects echoing off into the abyss.
Destiny boasts an impressive list of collaborators with featured guest performances from Kabaka Pyramid, Buju Banton, Jaz Elise and Burro Banton to name a few. Exploring themes of faith, life, love and the power of music, Albo presents a body of work that is relatable and humble, stating "I cannot make music that reflects the non-relevant. My Reggae should relate to the present."
In 2023 Alborosie will embark on one of his biggest tours to date, kicking off throughout May on the West Coast of America before heading to Europe in June, July and August for festival season.
