Listen...this is real praise caribbean style.. sherwin has it locked. The reggeae/soca feel of this track will have any christian rocking... check out "I Worship You". Real hard core roots reggae rock. This is a good CD...

Being from the Virgin Islands, reggae/dancehall/soca riddims are all part of daily life--except when you're a Christian. Then, the constant lyrics dealing with "gun talk", "slackness", etc. are no longer options. But then you have an album like this which gives you the BEST of both worlds: powerfully uplifting lyrics and the "wikkidest chunes" to back them up!

The best part of this project is Sherwin's VERSATILITY!!! He goes from [mostly] dancehall, to hip-hop and even throws in a techno track! He is truly a blessed vocalist, though you can easily hear liknesses to Capleton, Anthony B and Sizzla.

ANYONE who loves Caribbean/ reggae music should check this out! God bless!

Thanks Bro. Sherwin for your Bold testimony of who Jesus is and who Jesus is in your life. Sherwin's music & lyrics wanna make your dance & shout for joy of this exciting life as a Christian. I'm a big fan of Christian Carribean music and Sherwin is a must have, even if you're not familiar with this style of music.

This is a very good album. Even though the style of music is from Jamaica, Reggae/Dancehall. Sherwin does well to use this style of music and sounds very Jamaican although he isn't.
The Lyrics are very conscious and positive.
However, although i give it 4 stars i would give his latest one, 10 stars out of 5 ("Anointed"). Out of the 19 songs i listent o 17, all the time. Most people you think would decrease their number on their next album or the quality, however Sherwin Steps it up a BIG Notch! Amazon.com should get that album, that and PapaSan God and I are an excellent combination, that would expose anyone to the wide range of styles within Reggae and Dancehall music in Jamaica.

I have bought this album for at least ten of my friends and everyone loves it! This is an album that you can listen to from beginning to end and enjoy it all. Lyrics are thoughtful and provoking and minister to the heart. The music is pumping and gets you moving and brings you into the presence of God! I wish I could tell the world about this project - definitely a winner! My brother who hates Reggae has to admit that Sherwin knows how to get it done!
