Tiger Albums (12)
What The Critics Say
Produced by "Papa Biggs" McCarty, this album by Tiger continues in his trademark style. While nothing on the album quite measures up to his 1986 hit "No Wanga Gut," Brand New Style shows Tiger as one of the standout artists in '90s reggae. ~ Jonathan Ball, All Music Guide

What The Critics Say
A dancehall toaster with an infectious sense of humor, Tiger has a ball on the loose-knit Claws of the Cat, a patchwork of bouncy ragamuffin music produced by Sly Dunbar, the Brand New Heavies, Steely and Clevie, and others. The standout track is "Who Planned It," a duet with Q-Tip of A Tribe Called Quest. ~ Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide
What The Critics Say
Peripathetic toaster/DJ Tiger first began attracting attention on the international circuit with this 1988 release. It featured frenetic verbal thrusts, quips and commentary, performed over a skeletal musical framework with authentic drums rather than rhythm machines, both acoustic and electric keyboards and occasional guitar/bass support. Harold "Papa Biggs" McLarty and Doctor Dread stripped down the backgrounds and let Tiger's verbal acrobatics carry the day on such tracks as "Carbon Copy," "Bam Bam," "Nominee" and "Presto." ~ Ron Wynn, All Music Guide
