damian marley halfway tree album download Halfway Tree. In Kingston, Jamaica, the neighborhood of Halfway Tree is seen as a meeting place, a junction between the rich and poor parts of town. Damian Marley, the youngest son of reggae icon Bob Marley, wants his music to do the same thing, to be a bridge between the rich and the poor, the new and the old. For the most part, he succeeds as his North American debut offers enough social consciousness to keep his father's fans happy while still dabbling in newer forms of dancehall and hip-hop. North Americans may be familiar with Marley's work from his cameo appearance on Eve's album Scorpion. On Halfway Tree, Eve returns the favor as she appears on "Where Is the Love?," one of the funkiest tracks on the album. Another highlight is "Stand a Chance," which features some funky harmonica as well as the rhymes of Treach of Naughty By Nature as well as the sweet vocals of dancehall legend Yami Bolo. Tracks like "More Justice" and "Give Dem Some Way" feature the kind of social commentary you'd expect from a member of the Marley clan. The family influence is also felt throughout the album -- his brother Stephen Marley, produced much of the album and they even sample their father's classic "Could You Be Loved" on their track "And Be Loved." But Marley also strays away slightly from family tradition, dealing with love and sex in a raw, direct way on tracks like "Mi Blenda" and "Cool and Dandy." For the most part, Marley does an excellent balancing act. He handles his legacy and his future flawlessly and what's more surprising is that he makes it look easy. Halfway Tree.

Посмотреть сведения об участниках альбома, рецензии, композиции и приобрести альбом 2001 Vinyl от Halfway Tree на Marley's sophomore offering, Halfway Tree, bridges the gap between several disparate Jamaican sounds. Where Is The Love-set to a slinky American R&B rhythm-juxtaposes the youngest Marley's roughneck toasting against Ruff Ryder Eve's assertive feminist rap. His posh uptown pedigree can be observed in the smooth grooves and salsa- infected vibes of the Sly & Robbie-produced She Needs My Love, which also showcases graceful vocalization by Yami Bolo. This album like Damian Marley's other albums are top knotch. The beats are full or bass, lyrically he is exceptional and the compilation is blended skillfully. Without doubt this album is worth its five stars. Damian Marley was only two when his father died, but the youngest of the Marley sons must have learned something.
