• 475 page views

The highly awaited second album Love and Affection from Pressure is released on Don Corleon records. It’s true to say that Love & Affection is a little bit disappointing compared with his debut album The Pressure Is On released in 2005 on Tsuni Records. Nevertheless this set is complete and highlights collaboration between Pressure from US Virgin Islands and the well known jamaican producer Donovan "Don Corleon" Bennett. Some of this songs have already been released on singles this year on Don Corleon's label as the hit titled track, great Ghetto Life -based on Sly & Robbie’s Baltimore riddim- featuring King Kong voice samples, Hear My Cry on Far Away riddim or So Appealing on Love Potion riddim.

You should have understood, fans of Don Corleon’s ‘one drop’ rhythms should appreciate most of the 16 tracks. Love & Affection indeed presents various sides of VI singer from lovers rock to dancehall with Personality to roots with Africa, No Fight and Be Free and even hip hop vibrancies with the good ganja tune Most Wanted. One thing is sure, the biggest surprise of this album is the heavyweight Boogey Man showing Pressure in top form.
