I don't think this guy is at all tongue in cheek, but his milieu is reggae, not rap (although there are some elements of a rap vocal style in his work, ja?). My first listening of "King" was like a kick in the musical 'nads for me. Incredibly well done, excellent energy, and all from a guy who was not even remotely steeped in the culture which usually produces the finest reggae. Heck, I doubt if he even uses the sacramental herb, mon.
