Gyptian Joins Damian Marley and Nas for House of Blues Show

Just days after being recognized as the most popular dancehall artist in North America, based on online searches according to data from search engine Google, Gyptian has been added to the Damian “Jr. Gong” Marley and NAS Distant Relatives 2010 Tour, which makes its local-area stop this Friday at The House of Blues in North Myrtle Beach.

Gyptian has been enjoying chart success with his new album, Hold You, which continues to hold the #2 spot on Billboard’s Reggae Albums Chart. The title track, “Hold You,” has become a multi-chart hit worldwide and deemed a “2010 Summer Anthem.” According to Billboard Magazine, “not since Wayne Wonder's ‘No Letting Go’ has an underground reggae artist garnered as much attention in the United States as Jamaica's own Gyptian.”

SPIN Magazine gave Hold You “3 Stars” while The Washington Post named Gyptian “the owner of the summer’s most compelling dancehall hit.” The second single to be released from his album is the infectious “Nah Let Go;” the video has been completed and will premiere next week.
