Oh Yeah. . .:
I was pretty surprised to see this one available on Amazon.com. Queen Omega for the last few years has been absolutely blazing a trail for female roots reggae artists. 3 albums into her career and I have yet to hear a tune from her that I just absolutely did not like. Queen Omega probably is best desribed as a female version of a Luciano or maybe even a Sizzla as she mixes (but not so much) her standard singing with djaying, and is equally efficient at doing both. Her first 2 albums (Queen Omega and Pure Love) were both spotless, couldn't say a bad thing about them, Pure Love was the single greatest album that I heard in 2003. The best tune here is the flat out awesome Deliver Me, followed closely by the opener Jahmazing Grace, the title track and Looking For Love. Also check More Joy, De Youth and Know the Business. Perhaps the oddest track on the album is the adapted 22 Questions, which is Queen Omega's take on US rapper 50 Cent's 2003 hit 21 Questions. Overall, can't reccomend this one enough, this 23 year old singer from Trinidad is well on her way to creating a sort of consistency the roots side of reggae has never had from a female. Artists like Angie Angel and Queen Majeda have seemingly come and gone, and this woman has enough presence, voice and devastating ability of writing lyrics that she might be able to take this to the next level. AMAZING! GO GET IT!
Oh Queen..:
I have heard some tunes by queen omega before, so I decided to buy this CD..The sistren is real blazing up de fire.. I have enjoyed the CD. Her mellow voice,to the point message and some fine riddim makes this CD above the rest. I would ALMOST say she is a sistren version of brethren Anthony B. Reggae fans out there, the queen is no joke,she's really blazing it up..It's hard to find a perfect reggae CD these days but this one it's almost to perfection, it won't disappoint anyone..Go and get it and you'll enjoy it believe me..
