As the only European to enjoy worldwide success with authentic riddims, GENTLEMAN has been writing music history for over 20 years. After touring Europe, South America, Africa and the US, collaborations with the likes of Sean Paul, Aloe Blacc and Pink, as well as a first ever “MTV Unplugged” production for a reggae artist, his new album “Gratitude” drops in August and opens a brand-new chapter in his career.
The first track, LION, sets the tone: “It’s about things we can’t explain. About something greater than all of us. When I look to the stars from the studio, I feel there is a presence in which we can consciously let ourselves be small and give space to serenity. By being amazed and surrendering to the flow. This emotion resonates in all the songs on the new album: My personal appreciation and the awareness of transience.” With glowing reggae vibes LION unwaveringly celebrates the small things in life and the rare joy of being completely in the moment:
What is life without purpose? Never fit in nuh join circus – find your roots and know your truth.
With gold and platinum-certified #1 albums such as “Confidence” (2004) and “Diversity” (2010), 20 Top 100 singles, 1.2 million monthly Spotify listeners and another 1.5 million followers across all platforms, GENTLEMAN is a globally recognized genre superstar. “Gratitude” is an ‘anti-concept album’ made of pure reggae that references his early releases while casually blending tradition and modernity. The 18 new tracks featuring Queen Omega, Capleton, Collie Buddz, Nico Santos, and Michael Patrick Kelly were recorded in Mallorca, Jamaica and Miami, and produced by Donovan ‘Don Corleon’ Bennett, among others, who was already involved in “Intoxication” and “Diversity” and is also known for his work with artists such as Rihanna, Sean Paul, and Cardi B. LION will be released March13 and announces the pre-order start for GRATITUDE on March 27, 2026.
