| X | | X |
| X | It's not often a singer or deejay records their best work more | X |
| X | than twenty-five years after making their debut, but that's | X |
| X | exactly what Tippa Irie's done here. The UK mic veteran's latest | X |
| X | album is a tour-de-force. It's at once personal and universal, | X |
| X | containing songs for dancehall and reggae fans, as well as the | X |
| X | crossover market. | X |
| X | | X |
| X | Tippa always did possess an uncanny instinct for hit songs and | X |
| X | catchy hooks, except he's now discovered an extra gear - one that | X |
| X | reaches all the way back to his days on sound-system, whilst | X |
| X | embracing a raft of fresh musical ideas and rhythms. His | X |
| X | collaborators here are Germany's Far East Band, and the chemistry | X |
| X | between them has resulted in a dizzying blend of styles, anchored | X |
| X | by superb musicianship and production. "Just My Lady" deserves to | X |
| X | be a worldwide smash with its loving message and irresistible | X |
| X | melodies, just like "Hello Darling" once was. | X |
| X | | X |
| X | Tippa's renowned for his all-inclusive, easy-on-the-ear lyrics | X |
| X | except he's no pushover, and battle tunes like "Big Talk" and | X |
| X | others are among the most hard-hitting of his entire career. "The | X |
| X | race is not for the swift, but who can endure," he chants on "In | X |
| X | My Way," whilst "One Of Those Days" is a warning to promoters who | X |
| X | praise him as "the English Godfather" (which he most certainly | X |
| X | is) but want him to perform for little or nothing. He's not | X |
| X | saying this out of greed, but from a desire to see his profession | X |
| X | treated with more respect. Tippa's legacy is second-to-none of | X |
| X | course, as you'd expect of an artist voted Best British Reggae MC | X |
| X | for a record three times, but that still won't prepare you for | X |
| X | the lyrical walk on the wild side that's "Wine It," produced in | X |
| X | conjunction with fellow German band Seeed. | X |
| X | | X |
| X | Tippa still doesn't use profanities, and never has. Instead, | X |
| X | he'll put the competition to flight with lyrics full of truth and | X |
| X | reality, and that audiences from around the world can understand. | X |
| X | It's the same message that reggae pioneers like Bob Marley and | X |
| X | Jimmy Cliff spread to the four corners of the earth and Tippa's | X |
| X | no less of an ambassador, despite having made his breakthrough as | X |
| X | a dancehall artist. He too, believes that "reggae music is the | X |
| X | heartbeat of the people," and proves it on tracks like "Horns Man | X |
| X | Blow," "Truth And Rights" and "Only Jah Jah." Also the | X |
| X | unforgettable title track, on which he pays tribute to reggae | X |
| X | icons such as Lee "Scratch" Perry, Sly & Robbie and King Tubby, | X |
| X | to name but a few. Tippa's father ran a sound-system in Brixton, | X |
| X | London, and so when he talks about "feeling the music from | X |
| X | birth," he's not kidding. His mic skills date from childhood, and | X |
| X | he's now a master craftsman. Listen to "Me And This Mic" for | X |
| X | proof, and then consider how many late night sessions on sound- | X |
| X | systems like King Tubby's and Saxon it took to transform him into | X |
| X | a legend! | X |
| X | | X |
| X | Some of his biggest records since then have been either chirpy | X |
| X | dancehall numbers, or love songs like "Hello Darling" and that | X |
| X | wonderful run of hits he enjoyed with Peter Hunnigale and Lloyd | X |
| X | Brown throughout the nineties. This was before distinguishing | X |
| X | himself on records by Jurassic 5 and the Black Eyed Peas, and | X |
| X | then returning to dancehall action with a vengeance, just as a | X |
| X | new generation of reggae labels and producers came of age in | X |
| X | Europe. | X |
| X | | X |
| X | This album tells us a lot about where Tippa's at right now and | X |
| X | whilst his art and lyrics are steeped in old school mastery, it's | X |
| X | thrilling to hear him push back the boundaries and explore new | X |
| X | possibilities just as surely as any youngster. | X |
| X | | X |
| X | Enjoy! | X |
