Released earlier this year, No Stress Express (Half Pint Music/Essential/Universal), is deemed to be a classic and is available now at all leading music retailers. The hot tracks include “Unity” featuring Jack Maness from Long Beach Dub All Stars / Sublime, “Bad Boys” featuring Sizzla, “Just be Good” featuring R&B songbird Mikki Howard, ‘Mind Over Matter,” ”Suzie,” and “Children of His Majesty.”

Half Pint has enjoyed a long history of success dating back to the early 1980′s. He was the first major artist produced by Prince Jammy (later King Jammy), and together they helped establish a lighter, more relaxed, more melodic approach to dancehall that made for an easy transition into the digital ragga era. His first big hit “Winsome” was later covered by the Rolling Stones in 1986 (under the new title “Too Rude”). Many hits followed: “Money Man Skank,” “One in a Million,” “One Big Family,” “Pouchie Lou,” the socially conscious “Mr. Landlord,” and the all-time dancehall classic “Level the Vibes.” The huge hit “Substitute Lover” came in 1992, and in 1996 the rock group Sublime covered another Half Pint classic, “Loving.”

British female pop/R&B star. Estelle, has recorded a new hit cover of Pint’s “Substitute Lover” on her new sophomore CD release, Shine, released on John Legend’s Homeschool label distributed by Atlantic Records. Look for a remix with Estelle featuring Half Pint for the cover version to be released soon.

Additional upcoming Half Pint “No Stress Express” tour dates:

Sat 07/19/08 Tuscon, AZ The Rock
Sat 07/27/08 Toronto, ON, Canada Jamaica Day Celebration
Sun 08/03/08 W. Palm Beach, FL Cruzan Amphitheater (w Freddie McGregor & Wayne Wonder)
