Synopsis

Album Description
Born and raised in Arima, Trinidad, Sherwin Gardner began singing at a young age and quickly learned to integrate his faith with the contemporary music of his Caribbean island. The result is a uniquely woven tapestry of various urban sounds and Caribbean cultures with no-compromise lyrics and sound doctrine. A bestseller in Trinidad and Tobago, Sherwin is by far the most proficient and versatile deejay/vocalists in the Caribbean gospel arena. This diverse album kicks off the boiling pot with a hard hitting soca tune, then transitions smoothly into roots reggae, hardcore dancehall, hip hop, soca, jamoo, and techno ventures. Each song includes a signature style and sound that is undeniably Caribbean and unquestionably Sherwin. In his powerful songs, whether in a relaxed mood or over his riddim-driven tonic, Sherwin's sweet melodies and ballad bubblers are guaranteed to encourage and uplift your spirit. On LEANING, Sherwin comes correct with his versatile Midas voice, sailing against the edgy musical tracks with sweet soaring lines that compliment his oft raucous deejay vocals. An amazing freestyler, this potent lyricist dips skillfully in and out of his raspy deejay voice with absolute precision. Get ready to jump up to these rhythmic jams packed with carefree energy and sunshine melodies, all while tackling serious spiritual matters. As a proficient stage performer, Gardner knows how to keep an audience in the palm of his hand and get any crowd moving. With LEANING, Sherwin is sure to move both your body and your soul.

Hotness!!!
V I gyul 4 Jesus | U.S. Virgin Islands | 11/28/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)

"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!"
