Review
by Paul Clarke
09 May 2008
From one angle Ride It – Jay Sean's comeback single from last year – saw the Hounslow-born artist in exactly the same place as he was when he broke through in 2003 with Dance With You: Talking about cruising the clubs and making eyes at the ladies. Yet from others he couldn’t be more different, for where Dance With You bumped along on producer Rishi Rich's Desi beats the only obvious Asian influences in Ride It are the Eastern-tinged strings in this smooth r 'n' b groove, whilst cocksure confidence in the lyrical chat-up lines has been replaced by words and delivery that seem more wavering and vulnerable. Indeed, on the evidence of new single Maybe and plenty of other tracks on his second album Jay hasn't spent the four years since his debut Me Against Myself LP fighting off the hordes of females he's charmed with his moves, but rather disconsolately checking his mobile and Facebook for messages from that 'special someone' after she's stood him up agai! n.
The truth is actually rather different of course, for Jay has been building up his fanbase in the UK and India, racking up platinum sales many times over. Not that this was enough for his former record label Relentless, who were apparently unhappy with his new album, My Own Way, now being released on Jay's own label. For if Relentless thought they'd bagged themselves the first UK Asian rap and r 'n' b crossover star with his debut album, the follow-up suggests he's actually transformed into the Asian Craig David instead.
Recorded in New York and London with producers J-Remy and Duro, My Own Way contains not a single nod towards hip-hop save for I Won't Tell, and instead finds Jay singing in a voice so syrupy you could make a cake with it. Individually there's nothing wrong with the songwriting of tracks like Stay, but when everything becomes stuck around the same midtempo bump 'n' grind rhythm whilst Jay warbles about his women woes you might begin to suspect that the reason some girls seem to keep leaving him is simply because he's become a little bit dull.

Little T, London
Jay, it really doesn't matter where you come from or what music you sing, as long as you are true to yourself, doing something you quite obviously love. You will never please all of the people all of the time so just continue doing what you love. And yes btw, the album is fantastic!! Good luck for your future, may it be happy and prosperous. And to all those people out there putting the man down cause you're jealous "What have YOU done lately? Anything that requires guts and courage?" No, I didn't think so!! There's constructive criticism and there's plain old jealousy....
Natasha , Coventry
I Think Jay Is A Really Great Lad His Music Is One Of The Best Atm His Songs Are REally Catchy I Know Most Of Them Off By Heart Now Because I Love Them That Much I Listen To Them All The Time...All You Haters Just Get Gone You Got Nutting Better To Do.

Asif, Birmingham
I think Paul Clarke makes an extremeley good point about Jay Sean's frequent style of "bump 'n' grind" that it's becoming more predictable of his style in each new single. He also continuosly conveys his loss of love through his single's which have become more 'boring' over the time he has released his new album. Maybe he should try a new approach and explore further genre's and explore further themes rather than just 'women'?
Umair, Manchester
Jay Sean "he is the best" he really really has his own style as well as his own way to come out wid...all the tracks are rokin...

SO BAD
Killarmy, London
I am afraid Gay-Sean is really really whack... one of the worst individuals to ever grace a recording studio (possibly with the exception of Neighbours' Stefan Dennis and Scatman John). He is so poor that I feel sorry for him... Bobby Digital, Dazzl'a, Aloo - you are the only people out there with any sense. Who really cares what his ethnicity is ?? Does that make him any good ? Thats like saying the only people who like Mark Morrison are from Leicester ! The stupidest argument I have ever heard. If he was so good, he wouldn't need to attract a mediocre production team from the US to bail him out. You need to hear some proper music.... listen to Lil Wayne... there is a reason why he sold 1 million (A Milli) in a week in the US... he has determination and raw talent. Gay-Sean will be here one minute and gone the next ..... he is not a musician, just riding the Asian wave. Essentially he is an ugly, egotistical Apache Indian-imposter. Weak, Whack, basically, a muppet. Get out of my face.
BOB, Crawley
this is the besy jay sean song EVER

Yeah, he is tunin a bit like dat! Buh wot can ya expect 4rm Jay Sean! Eh? ;-)
Bijal Datta, England
The only good song is Ride It and Maybe and the rest I wouldn't rate at all. He's done well but was expecting more but good luck. Not really a Jay Sean fan, those two songs were good. DO something different Jay Sean because it's getting same old put some different type genre music in and please don't put bhangra in it. If you want different class of people to like your music then you might jiggle around with other genre of music and put in your strongest genre, and think doing this will prove your not based on RnB all time, actually no one done this, you might aswell be first and be successful, just good advice and good luck.
sandeep, coventry
all u peoplez dat fink bad stuff bout jay sean don't no wot u r chattin about! i luv dis album and i got it myself - sighned by jay sean wen i saw him at bordres!! i agree wiv Rahima! i no loads of peoplez luv him out der and i dn't care wot ani1 says!!

Kirsty Liverpool
Listen Jay dont put ur standard down just because some people are chatting shit about you yeh cause we simply know that they aint got a life ur tunez r siick!
Vik, California
Jay is doing pretty well and he hasn't lost the courage to just keep doing it. The way he got up with Rishi Rich and Juggy D few years ago was a good start, me against myself and now Ride it. The approach to be consistent it what takes to grow up. Jay hasn't seen much success yet but with the way he is growing, he "slowly" will get there. Someone mentioned about only young silly girls liking him, that's not true. Also he is no longer a "UK representative". There is no representative in music, music is not politics where someone is presenting any voice. Music is good, style is good. I can find faults in 50 cent, Michael Jackson and Ludacris, anyone can but that's not the point. You have to enjoy what's out there and ignore the negatives. Live, enjoy and let others do it too.

Who the HELL moderates these comments? A thousand imbeciles stating 'jay sean iz buff!!" isn't exactly BBC-quality copy...
Jasmine London
I think Jay is gr8 but I dont accept he is the best artist out there, I think he is probably the best asian artist out there altho its not very hard to do consider some of the awful talent Im hearin on the waves these days (with the exception of M.I.L.A.D but hes not asian asian so der u go) His album is gr8 reminds me a lot of Massaris album, fav song I wont tell, keep it goin.

Everyone is intitled to their opinion so stop going mad- RAVEENA. Bhangra music is da best music!!!stay true to ya roots if your punjabi!! oh balle balle

Wickedd album.....it's sooo different to his first album, but just as good. Absolutely love the track Waiting: it's a sick tuneee. Even if it is rubbish........the pictures of him are niceeeeee ;)
Anita London
Loved the first half of the album, not so keen on the 2nd half. too slow.... but love Jay Sean anyway. when do you ever buy an albm and love every single song.....
Raveena, Hull
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but honestly I think this is a very unaccurate review. Jay's done incredibly well with this album, he's made it into mainstream, charts all on his own. His own company and used his own money on the videos. And you can't say the videos are rubbish, cos he's one awards for them. They're worth sitting down to watch, and his albums are definitely worth buying, as Me Against Myself proved. Living in a mostly english soceity, I think it's great when I'm walking down the street and people have his songs as their ringtone. It's about time his music was appreciated by everyone! Why do people not talk like this about Ne-Yo or Chris Brown? If you don't like his music, fine. Shut up, no one asked ya. If you haven't got anything good to say, don't say anything?! Just because he's asian, doesn't mean he should just go into Engineering Or Law. Bobby Digital?! How stereotypical! Jay Sean's put a platoform out there for British Asians who want to be in music. Ok, so you don't like his music. Okay, but you don't have to say crap about him not getting into clubs or being forgotten in about 4 years? You haven't got mushc of a right, really. He's really popular all across the world, so why don't some of you lot give up and accept that he is and will always be. He's got talent, and there's no need to be jealous. The front cover is great btw, I like it - and besides it's the music that matters. Jay Sean delivers great music, with some great lyrics. This album's been in the top 10 , so how can anyone say it's rubbish? His singles have been recieved really well! Doesn't seem like most people agree with him being rubbish then, huh? Atm, he's the best r&b singer around and he deserves a few number 1's in the future ;)

Don't hate.. appreciate jay sean's voice + gud sound effects makes the perfect music!nyc album
sham, Herts
U people are haters...i agree to some that his first album was better but the second album is a little versatile still. I think he should have included abit of the asian flava in there coz thats what made him big and gave him a bigger fan base.
INDIA, UK
AMAZING.
Saira, Manchester
hmmn....I luv his songs 'n' all bt i kinda agree with the chad guy the cover of the album put's a buyer off buying it. He should perhaps think about advertising.Also, the fact that his lyrics actually have true meanings behind them it's a incredible thing.I think we need a few more singers like him.Anyways, hope he keeps up the gud work.
katie, waterbeach

Frank, Middlesbra
wiked album be jamin to dis daily basis na' mean

First I think it is important to say everyone is entitle to their own opinion. And whether you slate Jay Sean or rate Jay Sean you have to admit he is has done very well for himself. He is probably one of the first Asians to play at Hammersmith Apollo (which may I add has had many many huge stars play there) and play at massive gigs such as Glastonbury and ‘Love Music Hate Racism’. Give him credit where it is due that is a great achievement before the age of 30. So to the new album. Well there was a lot resting on this album, first album in four years, own label E.C.T. And well I have to say it is a good album and I do love some of the songs on there. It is defiantly up there with some of the great R’n’B artists at the moment; Chris Brown, Ne-yo to name but a few. Love the songs stay:):), cry and good enough. Keep up the good work Jay.
Bobby Digital, London
Dazzl'a - you are a genius ! I have to agree that Jay Sean is a loser and is giving hard working British Asians (like myself) a bad name. What is there to like about him ? His music is whack and he looks like a dodgy Apache Indian !! He's so 'British' that he's enlisted the help of Ken "Supa Engineer Duro" Ifill to bail him out... Duro is an ENGINEER, not a producer !! Someone should have told him that. Jay - stop singing and study medicine or law (or ENGINEERING !!) Rus'pek.
Jen, Coventry
The best album I've heard this year and it will probably be a top one for 2008! I love all his music and this album just shows how much potential he really his. Met him today and we have to appreciate that even though he is so up there with his musical talents, he remains very down to earth and loves his fans! Great singer and great person too!
Tasmina london
jay sean is a sik artiat hiz gonna go a long wai hiz realli gd ppl jus need 2 give him a chance hiz songz aint typical n ave a wide range of meaninz a waiz of lukin at it i love jay sean n im pround 2 sey it ppl dat lub him r gonna be wid him 4eva haterz luk at him luberz luk at hiz music + him xxxxxxxx
Importshowoff.ca, Canada
This is an amazing album and it could easily compete with Ne-Yo, Chris Bornw & other Tier 2 rnb singers. No where close to JT or Usher, but definetly a top 10 rnb singer. This is an amazing album and any true fan of rnb will enjoy it.
Aloo UK
What kind of music is this. A cross between rnb, hip hop and pop it really is nonsense. He should of given up ages ago, a very bad influence on youths and promoting all sorts with videos like "ride it". It really is dull, nothing is very appealing, he has not made it into the mainstream like he wished he had. Its bad enough we have the likes of money grabbing, attention seekers like Shilpa Shetty people are idolising but come on Jay Sean has to be the lowest of the lows. I think the only fans he has are silly young girls who are mad about his apperance or ghetto style how buff he is. This is shambles a really bad album, hopefully give it a few months and it will all be forgotten about another 4 or something years..........
Alan, Reading
c'mon guys support this upcoming british artist. i think he is up there with the best r'n'b artists. I seriously hope he gets recognized world wide for his talent.
Rupinder, Wolves
Jay seans album is wikd!!! I love ride it n maybe n i fink ny1 hu says he is crap is jus stupid. He's done reali well for himself n i jus fink he's wikd. Keep up the gud wrk n keep the gud sngs comin!!!!!! im a big fan!!!
Bles - London
why do ppl come on here to hate.uk music is goin nower, not cos its weak but cos too many ppl hate on it n dis stops it blowing internationaly.jay sean is a good representative for the UK, with the proffessional sound, and sellable music, we have to support UK music and stop hating. cs if our own ppl dont like it, how can we expect da world to?
Hello, Hello

Brad, Manchester
Rubbish review. Probably one of the best R&B albums of the year. Album you can play from start to finish. Loving Cry and Runaway. Sounds like American R&B and could battle with Ne-Yo...
Jammy,london
i think Jay is great but i dn't lk it wen he tries 2 rap at da end of da song ride it but i lk everythin else...keep up the gd work Jay!(don't rap)
Kiran Wolvo
Those of you who are talking badly about his album obviosuely havent heard his songs, some maybe a bit crap but they are better than most UK and American artists. And at least he is a gentle man in his songs and doesnt treat women in the wrong way. AND you have to big him up for being SOOO BIIG in the UK and being asian at the same time.
Afy Edinburgh
You hate him because you ain't himLet someone at least put British Asians on the stage. Keep it up jay
Dazzl'a, London
Mafz and Rahima - where did you learn to write English ? Can't take you seriously and what has being famous got to do with anything ? You can't really say he's famous outside of Hounslow. Oh, and I probably have more cash than he has.Ride It (and Jay Sean) is mediocre at best... I remember seeing an interview with him once and he 'claimed' that he was best mates and used to rap with Ludacris in the US !! Hahaha ! Jay Sean talks about "Mo'Vida" in one of his songs.... he probably couldn't even get in.... he should go to a proper club like Bungalow 8 (NYC/London) or Opera / Crimson in LA. Forget this talentless loser and cop some Ghostface Killah, Lil' Wayne or Jay-Z for some real lyrics.
jess, barnsley
jay sean had gt the best tunes they're well mint i lv him n ppl hu think he's crap well they dno wht real tunes r .....:]...xx

Singh, London
I agree - the first half of the album is much better than I thought it would be, but the second half loses the plot, and gets dull quickly.
