A MATTER OF TIME
| Protoje
A MATTER OF TIME
Protoje first gained notice for his 2005 mixtape Lyrical Overdose Volume 1, featuring mostly hip hop-influenced songs. With a guest appearance by Busy Signal, however, his future career was leveled as a reggae and dancehall artist. In 2010, Protoje began working with Don Corleon Records, run by his cousin and popular Jamaican producer Don Corleon. After releasing "Dread", "JA" and "Roll" in 2010, Protoje's debut album, entitled The Seven Year Itch, was released on 25 January 2011. The first single off the album, dubbed "Arguments" (2009), was responsible for his early popularity in Jamaica. In 2011, he released another single off the album entitled "Rasta Love" featuring Ky-Mani Marley.-Wikipedia

Reggae Vibe
He brings his Hip-Hop infused lyrical Reggae flow backed with some of the most creative production from a few of Jamaica’s top producers. Right now Protoje’s brand is one of the most notable in the industry. A very good album overall but will it get the recognition it deserves is left to be seen.

Reggae 360
A Matter of Time is an excellent album that should stand out as one of the better albums of the year. Start to finish, there is hardly a weak moment and this one will definitely be on heavy rotation for me for quite some time.

A Vaild Review
he knew the whole world was waiting for this off-the-wall album. Protoje will spark conversations with his subtle wits from “ A Matter of Time”, an album of the decade for me.
-
Rebel Base
an album you have to listen to a few times before you really start appreciating it for what it's worth, and that from then on only gets better every time you put it on
-
The Canary
another groundbreaking piece of work to come out of Jamaica. Its complexity is far more subtle than some of its contemporaries.
