Jamaican reggae group Roots Radics was formed in 1978. Their 1984 album Roots Dub Style was released on the Canadian Scorpio label. The uncredited cover shows Ethiopian emperor Haile Selassie I – worshipped as messiah by followers of the Rastafari movement – flanked by four Lions of Judah. The title typeface with heavy tops and bottoms is a version of Mansard, likely Letraset’s Rodeo.
