Details: Product Description On the heels of "Gimme The Light" by Sean Paul (One of the biggest street records of 2002), "No Letting Go" by Wayne Wonder is heating up dance floors and crossover radio airwaves across the United States. A huge international hit on the core reggae circuit, the track began to get mix show and full time radio rotations late last year, for its distinctive sound and R&B feel. Wayne's smooth tenor has delivered hits in the past ("Saddest Day", "Bonafide Love"), but "No Letting Go" has positioned Wayne on a whole new level. With the growing number of crossover radio success stories, the mainstream audience for reggae acts is growing quickly. "No Holding Back" from Wayne Wonder is the album to usher in the new phase in reggae music. The tracks have a contemporary urban appeal that is as fresh as it is infectious. The album is the soundtrack to Wayne's life, loves and ambitions, building on his lover boy appeal of earlier material with solid songwriting and co-production by Wayne himself. Amazon.ca Thanks to the VP Records label, Wayne Wonder, one of the most convincing reggae singers from the 90s generation (alongside Richie Stephens or Sanchez), is finally offered the opportunity to reach a larger audience. What he largely deserves, as his art, refined over the years, is at least as subtle as that of the best R&B vocalists. This sudden success, he owes it to "No Letting Go" which touched dancehall lovers, and whose titles like "Nobody But Me" and "Friend Like Me" take up the essence there. Produced with finesse, No Holding Back will delight fans of R&B and contemporary reggae. --Hervé Comte
