Billed as the late Lee “Scratch” Perry’s final studio album, King Perry comprises tracks the dub legend worked on until days before his death in 2021. As well as Perry’s collaborator in the studio, producer Daniel Boyle, the album features vocal contributions from Tricky, Happy Mondays’ Shaun Ryder, and Greentea Peng, among others. On album closer “Goodbye,” the last song Perry recorded, “his lyrics have him musing about going back to being a baby and being reborn,” Boyle said in press materials. “When the music stops, he just says ‘goodbye.’”
