Customer Reviews
Pick it up!
This Cd is above average but not a classic. Half the tracks are skip-worthy but the ones that are good are GREAT. That's why I gave it four out of five. I-Wayne is very talented and he's got something we don't see very often..ORIGINALITY. He has a very unique voice and has well written songs. He doesn't compromise his Jamaican patois but at the same time it's easy to pick up on what he's saying. Best Tracks- Can't Satisfy Her(good message, good song, Living In Love and my personal favorite, More Life. One of the better songs in concious reggae in quite some time. CHECK IT OUT!!!
Awesome Album
Roots and culture artists have long been a constant in Jamaica, from the influence of legends like Bob Marley to conscious roots dancehall singers like Garnet Silk. However, in the summer of 2004 a new and powerfully distinct voice emerged on the reggae music scene. With a fresh timbre, substantive lyrics, and a passionate performance, this artist has almost single handedly lead the new wave of roots and culture reggae music that has swept the island of Jamaica.
I Wayne, born Cliffroy Taylor in Portmore, Jamaica, has officially hit the international scene with his ..1 hit Cant Satisfy Her. This humble, 24 year old, singer has been the first cultural reggae artist to be added to Hot 97 in New York, a station notorious for its hip hop influence. Since then the track has caught on in several markets and has entered the Billboard Hip Hop/R&B Singles charts. The firey tone of the track describes the desperate reality of prostitution, poverty, and sexually transmitted diseases in Jamaica. His follow-up single has once again taken the reggae world by storm. Riding on the top of the New York and Florida reggae charts for more than 7 weeks and counting, with Living in Love on the Hard Times Riddim (VP2272) produced by Stephen Gibbs and Errol Thompson, I Wayne has already proved himself to be a consistent hitmaker.
Although he has seemingly burst onto the scene, this young artist has been refining his craft since age 7. Coming from a musical family, I Wayne had first made his venture into performance as a student at Greater Portmore High School, joining a local group Vibes Machine. The group, consisting of singers and DJs, used to perform afterwork parties at popular clubs like Cactus and Asylum. One night, the artist was forced to perform alone due to the fact that the rest of his bandmates were running extremely late. The response was tremendous, and I Wayne was motivated to perfect his solo act. He later moved on to chant with local sound systems like Diamond Cruise and The Legend, and has contributed significantly to the annual event in his hometown, Garveymeade, held on December 24th for the past 10 years. With an admitted affinity for love songs that highlight his ethnicity, I Wayne has a unique ability to compose and commit to memory all material without ever writing down a word for the recording session.
In November of 2004, I Wayne signed a record deal with VP Records to release his debut album Lava Ground, which will be in stores summer of 2005. The album will include the two hit singles Cant Satisfy Her and Living in Love and the title track Lava Ground (which has already started to show up on some charts). His rise to the top of the reggae world is unprecedented, and has sparked a wave of enthusiasm among the industry for the next generation of roots and culture singers and songwriters.
lava ground
I am not one to write a review about a song but damn....Lava ground is a song that kind of made me have tears in my eyes and I don't really understand why it did that; I don't even understand the lyrics. I guess it just put me in a mood to reminisce or just think about the past. I guess its the melody and the beats that put me in that kind of mood. I would definetly buy the album just on the strengh of the song.
Lova This Album!
I Wayne is a unique singer. When I first heard him, I was taken by his smooth delivery and ability to ride the melody in the songs. Purchase this CD and you will not be disappointed. "Living In Love" is a masterpiece with profound lyrics. However, the whole CD is great, but has room for improvement. Real reggae lovers will appreciate this one. Yeah,Mon! Lava!
Great CD from Start to Finish
I Wayne's voice......the music, the stories. It is genuinely a start to finish CD. So very smoothe. The infamous hot track "Can't Satisfy Her" is a true reflection that this album has many great songs such as that one.....It's far from a "ONE HIT" album. It's a must for your reggae collection.
