Ras designed Ras Portraits as a concise introduction to a particular artist's recordings for the label. Since the information behind Ras releases is always shady, it's difficult to discern the origin of tracks on Ras Portraits, but the disc is one of the better collections of Cocoa Tea material that Ras has released, and listeners curious about his albums for the label should start here. It should not, however, be seen as a definitive introduction to his music in general. Among the featured tracks on Cocoa Tea's Ras Portrait are "Rocking Dolly," "Bust Outta Hell," "Gotta Know Rastafari," "Jah Made Them That Way," "Kingston Hot," "Dancehall Night," "I Lost My Sonia," "I'm Going Home," "Louisiana" and "No Wanted Man." ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi
