Jah Mason - Wheat And Tears - Greensleeves - CD

The Sizzla style in a singing style. Jah Mason is not the first to

attempt it. Sizzla himself as done a pretty good job - before going to

his DJ style. Jah Mason is a singer though, and its good to hear him

coming along, good songs, and good solid roots production from Byron

Smith. Probably the most remarkable track is 'Now You Say' its a love

song that someone like John Holt could end up singing!! Its got a very

seventies type of feel. Overall its a roots album, very militant - and

one that sets Jah Mason in the right direction. Realistically people

who like this kind of style want to hear these kind of lyrics - and

with the right kind of production it works. The Firehouse crew pop up

on a load of the rhythms. While recording as took place all over the

world, Jamaica, the UK, the US, and Sweden

Jah Mason - Most Royal - Jah Warrior

The bobo form of deejaying is not deejaying at all, its closer to

preaching, and when it gets too fast - an artist could be saying

anything. The solution is to slow the 'DJ' down, its what Kariang did

very successfully with Sizzla a few years back. The same label as

recently released a set by Jah Mason, but failed to employ the same

production technique for him. Jah Warrior thankfully as slowed him

down. The UK built rhythm are good as well recorded at Conscious

Sounds in London. Jah Mason comes up with some good lyrics all

cultural topics - hopefully the set will be successful and other

producers will take note.
