Reggae legend Frederick “Toots” Hibbert is back with the first new Toots and the Maytals studio album in a decade. Got To Be Tough is out on August 28 via Trojan Jamaica/BMG Records, and Toots has just unveiled the second single from the album, an urgent message from a voice that has been fighting against social injustice since the ’60s.
“I want to ask everyone to keep their focus in this time of wonders,” says Toots. “Make such focus be of good faith, Love each other take it as a warning and exercise brotherly and sisterly care for each other of all race, religion and creed.”
Listen to “Warning Warning” and the upcoming album’s title track below. We last caught Toots at his incredible show at Montreal’s Corona Theatre back in 2016 — check out our photos and review here. Got To Be Tough is available for pre-order now.
