Album Notes: Despite being frequently pigeonholed as simple 'reggae-pop', 'Man Like I' is a suprisingly eclectic debut from London's Natty. Collaborations with artists as diverse as Razorlight and Mos Def ensure that this is a varied and thought-provoking album. Although it does contain its share of summer pop, songs such as 'Revolution' and 'Say Bye Bye' give the album depth, while 'Cold Town' is a social commentary in the vein of the more traditional reggae figures.
Advantages: unique version of Talking Blues Disadvantages: some poor sound quality, some early dull tracks

1. Lively Up Yourself
2. No Woman, No Cry

I would now like to talk one of the songs within this album, now been a big Bob Marley fan this was one of the latter albums I bought as I was under the impression that I had most of the tracks on it.
How I was wrong, one track on this album is far better than other material I have ever heard, no its not No Woman No Cry, it is in fact Talkin Blues.
This version is completely different...

...Mani hate your band!
Mani hate your band is the brand new single from the new break through band called little man tate.
Mani hate your band is currently the 4th single which they have released and it is of the same high quality as their previous releases.
The band( little man tate ) has only been together for about a year and already they have made into the uk top 40 with their single House Party At Boothy's. This is an amazing achievemnt for a band which shows that they are very talented and are very original to get the chance to make this far in the music industry.
I gurantee this is a must buy for any indie rock fan or o anyone who just likes to listen to some good music....

Advantages: Nice guest rappers like Ghostface and Raekwon turn up at AFTERPARTY and THE TURN respectively. Disadvantages: The lyrics from Method man are disgusting and the musical production is revolting! SAY WHAT?
