Review by Holly Cote

Album Review: "Higher In Love" by Roy 'Gramps' Morgan If you’re into reggae with a dash of dancehall vibes, Higher In Love by Roy 'Gramps' Morgan is one of those albums that sneaks up on you and sticks around. Released in 2008 under Gargamel Music (props to Jamaica for keeping it real!), this project feels like a warm breeze on a summer day—calm but full of flavor. Produced by Mark Myrie (you might know him as Buju Banton), the album has that authentic, rootsy touch we all crave when diving into Caribbean sounds. Let’s talk tracks, shall we? First off, “Gold Mine Instrumental” hits different. It’s smooth, almost hypnotic, with layers of rhythm that make your head nod without even thinking about it. The bassline? Chef’s kiss. You don’t need lyrics to feel the vibe; it’s one of those instrumentals that paints pictures in your mind. I remember listening to it late at night, staring out the window, feeling like life made sense again—even if just for three minutes. Then there’s the title track, “Higher In Love.” Man, this song is pure magic. Gramps brings his A-game here, delivering vocals so soulful they could melt ice. The melody lifts you up, literally taking you higher, while the lyrics remind you what love should feel like—no gimmicks, no overthinking, just pure connection. This tune stayed stuck in my head for weeks after hearing it. Like, who doesn’t want to be “higher in love”? Sign me up! What makes this album stand out isn’t just its catchy beats or heartfelt messages—it’s how unapologetically Jamaican it feels. There’s no trying too hard to fit some global trend. Instead, it stays true to its roots, letting the music speak for itself. And honestly? That’s refreshing AF. So yeah, Higher In Love may not have blown up mainstream charts back in ’08, but it’s the kind of album you rediscover years later and think, “Wow, why didn’t everyone talk about this?” Maybe it’s underrated because it doesn’t scream for attention. Or maybe it’s just waiting for people like us to give it another spin. Random thought: If this album was a person, it’d probably chill in the corner at parties, quietly vibing until someone finally notices how cool it really is. Just saying. Check it out—you won’t regret it.
