January 19, 2011, New York City – What do you get when you put French superstar DJ/producer Bob Sinclar in the studio with prolific reggae legends Sly & Robbie? Answer: A Grammy Nomination for Best Reggae Album 2010!

Known to American dance music fans–including Paris Hilton and Madonna as the man who had us whistling and singing along to five #1 Billboard Dance Club Chart hits including “Love Generation” “World Hold On,” and “Sounds Of Freedom,” Bob Sinclar may not be the most obvious name when it comes to Reggae, but earlier this year, he flew to Kingston to re-work his biggest dance hits for his eighth studio album, “Made In Jamaica.”

Slowed down and mellowed in the warmth of Caribbean sunshine, feel-good club anthems like “Love Generation,” “Word Hold On,” “Jamaica Avenue” and “I Feel For You” where reborn; transformed through the prism of old school reggae into brand new songs. Welcomed with open arms by critics and fans alike, “Made In Jamaica,” is now one of only five albums basking in the glow of the coveted Grammy Nomination.

Teaming up with Sly & Robbie–the legendary reggae duo known for bringing their sparse, funky, dubby sound to everyone from , and avant-garde singer –“Made In Jamaica” features guest spots by top reggae vocalists like Gary “Nesta” Pine (of The Wailers), Tony Rebel, Dollarman and Queen Ifrica. The current single, “I Wanna” by Bob Sinclar & (Romanian duo) Sahara features yet another reggae superstar, Shaggy. [continued next page]
