“They were playin’ Lovers Rock, I got to fold the fingers on her waist,” sang Mos Def. “Lovers Rock Forever/they never stop,” deadpanned Superpitcher. They’re not talking about ZZ Top’s “Pearl Necklace,” I’ll tell you that. Rather, Lovers Rock is a reggae style from mid-’70s South London, known for pleasing the ladies and their dates with largely non-Jah-related content. Not that there aren’t similarities—love done right, in music and in life, is always divine. With DJs King Sound, Zion Gate Sound, Culture Yard Sound. RACHEL SHIMP
