From Jamaica Observer:
Veteran Dancehall artiste Shabba Ranks who hasn't had a hit in many moons might just be on the verge of scoring an international hit. He is featured on French record producer, remixer and house music DJ Bob Sinclar's latest single "Love You No More".
The song has been released on Sinclair's Yellow Productions label.In 2005 Sinclair scored a hit with the single "Love Generation," which reached #1 on the Australian ARIA Singles Charts and the German Media Control Single Charts in 2006. The song was a huge success throughout Europe, also peaking at number two in the Dutch Top 40. It featured the vocals of Jamaican singer Gary Pine. Pine had replaced Bob Marley as lead singer of the Wailers.
The follow-up hit was "World, Hold On," which featured Steve Edwards and also managed to chart in the top ten in most European countries. "Rock This Party (Everybody Dance Now)" was another big hit in Europe and it featured Jamaican deejay Dollar Man.
Shabba, who jockeyed a string of hits atop several mainstream charts in the 1990s, has over the years collaborated with a slew of heavyweights on the American and international music scenes.In 1991 he was featured on the Top 20 UK hit a remake of "She's a Woman" by Scritti Polliti. He later teamed up with US R&B singer Johnny Gill for the Top 10 R&B hit "Slow and Sexy." Later on he recorded hits with rappers KRS-One and Queen Latifah, actor-turned-singer Eddie Murphy and R&B singers Terri and Monica.
