The Energy God AKA Elephant Man is back with his third album Higher Level. I have been following Ele since his first album Comin 4 You. And with each album he gets better. Higher Level surprised me because Log On was a hard album to top, But Ele tops it. The album is filled with about twelve prior riddim releases. But that doesnt hurt the album at all. Each of the 23 tracks is of the Highest Grade. Ele is at his best on tracks like Elephant Message, Run for Your Life, Give her it Good, Bumper and truthfully all the rest. Ele shows that he is poised to take over the Dancehall world with his Energy, Talent, and Wicked Rhyme style. The album does l se points on the tracks Bad Man A Bad Man and Bring Di Sittin Come because I could have lived without hearing Ele doing his R Kelly Impression and on Bring Di Stttin Come He is just a little too repetitive. But still this album is a Must BUY!!!! Ele defiantly is Taking Dancehall to a HIGHER LEVEL.

9.5 Out of 10. Final Judgment : Blazin.

i don't think ele has reached a higher level with producing this cd. it is definitly not as good as log on and ele's coming 4 u.
u can't compare it with these two, the beatz aren't that good, often even too nervous and almost similar to others on the same album. actually it's still a good dancehall cd, but you don't find these typical elephant man anthems (like "elephant man", "e-l-e-p-h-a-n-t", "shizzle my nizzle", "log on", "jamaica" etc.), exept "manabadman" and maybe "ele message" ... on the other ele-albums there were so many songs that u loved when u first heard em, but on higher level i don't feel like that. so i'm a bit disappointed, cause i expected something else. perhaps i hav 2 hear it (over) again, but my first impression is that i don't like it that much an that i can't see ele's higher level.

This is one artist that deserves to be in the lime light with the same parallelism of Sean Paul. Elephant Man has been producing hits or years, and it's time that he gets the exposure that he so much deserves. From his cathcy hooks, tongue-twisting lyrics, and desire to break the molds in reggae, he is the complete package of what a reggae artist should be composed of. Definitely get this CD. It's worth every penny. Yuh dun know, fa shizzle my nizzle.

When I first listned to this album i was a lttle disappointed because I was used to the "log on" sound but this is more party music. but the 2nd time I was listening to it it immediatly grew on me it definnatly makes u wanna dance even I wanted 2 dance and I hate dancing. This album has a much happier feel to it there's no gay-bashing or annything like that, not that i have a problem with that or sum this is just real party music but i have 2 say LOG ON is better.

But Anyway if ur a dancehall fan GET THIS!

This is definately the best dancehall cd out right now. I just got it and I would say elephant man is better than sean paul. The best song on this cd is "nuh come fast". If you liked Log On or Scared from the Crypt youll like this a lot more.

I went out to get his CD after he performed at my college...I loved the CD the minute that I listened to it. He presents a lot of new dances in this CD. It is a dancing type CD...Love da songs and what not....It doesnt have much gay bashing like the previous person said, but Elephant Man is a gay basher nevertheless...Its all good Love da CD...HOLLA
