San Francisco musician-activist Franti has never pulled his political punches (one of his songs, “Bomb the World,” even drew the ire of the FBI). Franti’s latest, inspired by travels to Baghdad, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, is radical stuff, with the singer-rapper calling for revolution on the incendiary title track. But Franti sweetens his message with bubbly reggae rhythms from Sly and Robbie and guest vocals from Pink on the joyous pop gem “One Step Closer to You.” Like Bob Marley crossed with UB40.
