This new studio album incorporates an array of musical influences over consistently hot reggae riddims and is aptly titled "Ready For The World" released Tuesday May 10, 2005. The singer known as Tony Curtis is rated among reggae fans for the 2002 anthem "HIGH GRADE" (from the album "Stronger") which placed top 10 in Jamaica and abroad. In 1997, the singer had a Jamaican number 1 hit, "MISSING YOU", in combination with ARP and Beenie Man and partnered with deejay Jigsy King for the smash hit "BUTTERFLY" which later evolved into a popular dance-move during the early 90s. This dance still ranks as an all time favorite alongside dances like "Bogle" inspired by the late dance pioneer "Gerald Levy/Bogle a-k-a Mr Wackie." http://www.tonycurtismusic.com "Ready For The World" http://www.tonycurtismusic.com/albumready.jpg Boasting performance stints with Roof International and Stone Love Movement, Curtis has developed a following with the dancehall fraternity among singers like Lukie D, Thriller U and Singing Melody who have combined their talents (and initials) to form the dancehall quartet L.U.S.T. On his own, Tony has toured Europe and Japan and plans for summer '05 include a US tour. Feature tracks from the brand new album&;include "Jungle George", "Follow Me" featuring the legendary Johnny Osbourne and the title track. Classic ballads include: 'Sleep With Me", "I Want You More" & "All the Way". Once again Tony Curtis has delivered another classic with something for everyone!

Ruckus is a mid-tempo electro bounce, spiced with flute, guitar, turntable scratch and a rhythmic drone that sounds like African hand drums. This riddim also features: Capleton, Lexxus, Buju Banton, Bounty Killer & Others. Tony Curtis TOP 20 HIT SONGS "Ready For The World" http://www.tonycurtismusic.com/mic.gif 1. High Grade 2.
