Dancehall Queen, Lady Saw (Marion Hall), has announced the release of her first album since 2007, My Way, due out on September 7th, 2010 through new partnership with Toasting Music, alongside her label Diva Records, distributed by Fontana/Universal. The lead single, Party Till December, is available digitally on August 10th, 2010.

Jamaican-born Reggae singer and “Queen of Dancehall,” Lady Saw was the first female DJ to win a Grammy Award, and the first female to be certified triple platinum as a result of her work on No Doubt’s Underneath It All in 2003 after reaching #3 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 Chart. Saw also received gold certification for her work on Smile with Vitamin C. Previous releases Lover Girl, Give Me A Reason, and Passion, paved the way for her best-selling album, Raw, the Best of Lady Saw in 1998, which received four and a half stars by AMG.

With the release of My Way, Saw brings back her famous Dancehall beats and gritty lyrics that first gained her acclaim and widespread popularity at Dancehall shows. The album features fourteen tracks including lead single, Party Till December, which will also feature a music video due out in late August. Other tracks include He Is At My House (feat, Eve), Every Way Mi Go, and I Can’t Wait (feat. Ding Dong).

“Lady Saw exudes a strength and determination in her music both lyrically and melodically that resonates with her fans. My Way continues that sound, and will likely permeate through not just the dancehall and reggae communities, but to Hip Hop and Dance fans as well. That makes her a perfect fit for Toasting Music,” says Steven Weber, President of Toasting Music.

Lady Saw will be playing a number of shows throughout the late Summer and early Fall, including appearances at Montreal Reggae Festival August 8th, Hot 97 ‘On the Reggae Tip’ in NYC September 3rd, and at Miami Carnival on October 9th.

BFM Digital, a leading digital music aggregator and distributor of independent music, has partnered with leading independent publisher The Royalty Network, to launch Toasting Music, a new label focused on Reggae content. The first release, 18 & Ova, a riddim featuring some of Reggae’s top talent, is out now everywhere music is sold.

Toasting Music was created as an outlet to allow new and quality Reggae releases to be properly marketed and promoted. Together with BFM’s digital reach and The Royalty Network’s vast experience in the reggae community, Toasting Music’s artists will have physical and digital distribution, a full service creative department, and the opportunity for film and TV licensing. With such valuable assets available and long-standing relationships within the music industry, 18 & Ova is sure to be only the first of many successful releases.

Produced by Troy McLean, 18 & Ova features some of the World’s top Reggae artists. For years, producer Troy McLean has been a major influence in the Dancehall and Reggae Riddim styles. Along with partner Garfield Hamilton, McLean was one of the primary producers of the legendary Dancehall series “Riddim Driven.” 18 & Ova features unreleased tracks from such renowned artists as Maxi Priest, Lady Saw, Buju Banton, Sizzla, Peetah Morgan (from Morgan Heritage), Pressure and Tami Chynn & Wayne Marshall who, combined, have sold millions of albums worldwide.

Sizzla Kalonji is one of the most prolific leaders of the conscious Reggae dancehall movement. Emerging in the latter half of the 90s, he helped lead dancehall back to the musical and spiritual influence of roots reggae and heavily Rastafarian subject matter.

As she prepares to introduce her new material to the world and embark on her debut performance with Akon, Tami Chynn returns to the place where she first found inspiration to be a star. At the age of fourteen, Tami moved to London where she spent the next three years absorbing the culture and sights while attending school for performing arts. It was during this time Tami realized that her dream of becoming an artist could in fact be her reality, and when she returned to Jamaica she set out to establish her “roots.” Taking lessons from Jamaican artists such as Beenie Man, Sean Paul and Lady Saw, all of whom she’s collaborated with in the past, Tami realized early on the importance of catering to her core audience before spreading abroad. Soon after the release of her first video, “Rock U,” Jamaica was all abuzz with talk of this fresh new female artist who’s hot sound was rivaled by her even hotter look.

Pressure is a native of St. Thomas and an original member of the Star Lion Family. With a foundation strongly rooted in the levity of Rastafarian, Pressure comes forward with the full spectrum of vocals – poignant conscious lyrics that touch the soul and some wicked chants. This artist has recently emerged from the Star Lion Family to demonstrate to the world that, without a doubt, the pressure is on in these times.
