Ed Lover, Power 105.1 (NYC)

"T.O.K. is one of the most innovative groups in the last decade."

With the continued success of dancehall and its influence on pop music worldwide, the buzz is on: Who are the next superstars to rise from Jamaica's bottomless musical well? Hailed by the New York Times as 'the world's greatest dancehall-reggae boy band', T.O.K. - the quartet of Alex, Flexx, Bay-C and Craig T. - combine sweet melodic crooning and R&B harmonies with hardcore ragamuffin toasting for a sound that is truly unique and powerful on this their sophomore effort.

T.O.K. is without question one of the most talented reggae groups in Jamaica. From start to finish, this album, Unknown Language, is "solid as a rock". The songs are all well written and the vocals are of course impeccable. Pound for pound, I think T.O.K. will be the next reggae act to make it big internationally just as Shaggy, the Marleys, etc.
There are certainly no space fillers on this album. My favorite joints from the album are:
*Hey Ladies
*Solid As A Rock (this should have been the album title!)
*She's Hotter (this remixx with Pittbull is blazing!)
*Tell Me If You Still Care (nice laid back song)
*Footprints (maybe the biggest song on the album internationally; the new video is well done too)
*Wah Gwaan (a conscious tune; I really like the sound of the piano in the beat (Ihope every Jamaican takes heed to this one!))
*Survivor (one of my favorite songs on the album; I feel uplifted when I listen to this one)
*Music is Pumping
*Weak (my second favorite song on the set; well written/produced)
*No Way Jose
*High (my favorite track on the album; best weed tune I've heard in a while! I pulled it ap about 20 times!)
*Neck Breakers(this song is so simple it eventually becomes sweet to listen to!)
*Gal You Ah Lead

5.0 out of 5 stars So Refreshing!!!, October 3, 2005

T.O.K. continues to break new boundaries. Their melodies and lyrics are hard hitting on every level. I recommend this not only to reggae fans, but anyone intereseted in good music. Everyone can relate. That is probably why Footprints is blowing up all over the radio airwaves. I think you can check them out on Myspace as well. Google them! The buzz is true. T.O.K.'s is on point!!!
