While not quite as strong as his debut album, So Many Things, Universal Struggle makes for a solid sophomore effort from reggae DJ Anthony B. Again, Rastafarian themes dominate, as the roots rhythms provided by Richard Bell serve as the perfect backdrop for intense spiritual reflection.

With the brunt of "damage already done," the conscious bobo advises all to "Seek Jah First."
