Because that is an introduction to Kymani and the music is just great, hip hop, reggae, and more. The album opens with "I'M Back" and that song will bring you up to date with Kymani.

BUJU BANTON

TOO BADD - GARGAMEL MUSIC INC.

Too Badd-

The best Dancehall cd release for 2006-2007. Buju's Too Badd has taken the world by storm. From the first singles, Nothing, Too Badd and Fast Lane there has been no stopping for this album. And I most say when I first listened to the album and got to number eleven I was stuck..and kept playing "Driver A" over and over again.

Buju Banton. Too Bad. Pure. Uncut. Cop yours now!

LOVE IS GONNA KEEP US TOGETHER- Lyrics

Love Is Gonna Keep Us Together/ Through any stormy weather/ Love Is Gonna Keep Us Together/ Through any stormy weather/ Verse: Be happy my love/ Though sometimes it’s rough/ Be happy and trust/ This magic in us/ Some say this- they say that/ We’re gonna make them take it back/ Time will tell – we won’t fail/ New beginning let’s exhale/ Chorus / Verse: All the girls could never be/ Everything you are to me/ Celebrate the life we live/ All the love we have to give/ Now they see – far we’ve come/ We made love – made a son/ Lonely days won’t last for long/ There is love for everyone
