Tomorrow (by Sean Kingston, Dancehall/Reggae)

Baby-faced dancehall sensation Sean Kingston is back at it with TOMORROW, his second full-length album. Kingston calls on producer Red One, pop-punk band Good Charlotte, and former Fugee Wyclef Jean for help with the fun, reggae-tinged tunes included in this record. Like his first self-titled CD, Kingston's second album is filled with lots of reggae-tinged songs about the ups and downs of young love. Most of the album's scenarios play out on the dance floor, where the dancing gets hot but most of the remaining action remains cool and clean. As a result, these songs are a good compromise for kids who love dancehall yet are still too young to handle the adult themes included in much of this music.

If this album has one overriding musical theme, it’s just plain fun. The beats are fresh and light, making your feet want to move. While the lyrics themselves, which occasionally discuss break-ups and broken hearts, may not always be as light, they aren’t so dark as to significantly dampen the mood. Particular highlights include the collaborations with both Good Charlotte (“Shoulda Let U Go”) and Wyclef Jean (“Ice Cream Girl”), both of which have a carefree feel that cause you to hit the repeat button more than once.
