Album Notes

Spreading a message of greater proportions than many of those who have gone before him, Jermaine Cowan comes strong with the truth and is primed to be the conscience reggae desperately needs. This Jamaica-born young artist sends off stellar vibes by fusing elements of hip-hop, pop, and soul into the classic reggae and dancehall sounds.

Jermaine developed an early appreciation for music while growing up and he accredits his
father for inspiring him to passionately develop his gifts and talents in singing and songwriting. Jermaine has been influenced by distinguished veterans such as Michael Jackson, Kirk Franklin, and Luther Vandross. The impact of reggae artists such as Sanchez, Dennis Brown, and Bob Marley is evident as he builds upon some of the common elements developed by these legends. Jermaine pairs his sound with genuine lyrics as he shares personal experiences and puts life into an insightful perspective.

Gaining his first major break as an emcee for the award-winning reggae group, “House of David,” Jermaine has already caught the eye of various industry professionals. While gracing international stages in Canada, United States, and Jamaica, he has shared the company of renowned artists such as Papa San, Carlene Davis, Frankie Paul, Half Pint, Luciano, and Stitchie.

Now, Jermaine is busy preparing his debut project entitled “Timing” . The premiere will be comprised of body-grooving cuts and inspirational pieces including the hit single “So” produced by the Positivibes Productions team. This work will also feature special guest artists including hip-hop sensation Promise. Slated for completion and release in mid-spring 2006 it is definitely going to be some of most upbeat and positive entertainment any soul has yet to partake in.

This bright artist is intending to make a lasting mark on society. Through the use of innovative lyrics and reflective tones he establishes a reality that many consider to be a mere fairytale. His heart to reach youth shines through as he encourages listeners to overcome struggles and ascend from the ghetto. Jermaine Cowan is the phenomenal voice and blissful sound that the soul of a reggae fan craves.
