Contributed-Tony Anthony

Tony Anthony, the multi-award-winning Jamaican reggae singer who resides in Toronto, Canada, is living his dreams as his song Torn topped the Jamaica Music Countdown Top 25 Reggae Singles chart on hot 102FM.

Torn, is the first single released from his debut album, Million Chance, and for the past few months has been on regular rotation on radio stations across the island and around the world. Torn is presently number three on the Caribbean Top 30 music charts and debuted recently on the South Florida reggae music chart. It spent eight weeks at number one on Canada's Rebel Vibez Top 10 charts.

Tony Anthony's Million Chance album is also creating a huge buzz worldwide, and it recently went to number one on the Jamaica Music Countdown Top 10 album charts. It is currently number six on the South Florida reggae album chart and number five on the New York reggae album chart.

The second single released from the album, titled Bad News, is already receiving regular airplay and has just debuted on the New York Top 30 reggae chart and the Jamaica Music Countdown Top 25 reggae singles chart.

Tony Anthony was born and raised in Grove Farm, St Catherine where he began singing at church when he was eight years old. He migrated to Canada about 20 years ago and has developed a reputation there as a great singer and musician.

It is no surprise how well Torn has been doing locally. In fact, this is the second time in the past two years that Anthony has produced a single that has done well locally. In 2008, his song Yuh Nuh Simple went as far as number five on some local charts.

At the recent 2010 Canada Reggae Achievements Awards, Tony Anthony won the award for Best Reggae Vocalist in Canada. His Million Chance album is available on iTunes, Amazon, Napster, MP3.Soundquake.com, Juno.Com and all leading online stores.
