His name nods to the great reggae deejay Big Youth's tribute to John Coltrane, but Jimmy Screech's blend of hip hop, soul and dancehall is straight out of the London melting pot. The singer-rapper's warm baritone dominates this fairly standard collection of sampled and programmed beats, and while his voice is not dissimilar to Roots Manuva (to whose Banana Klan label he's signed), it has an effortlessly melodic style of its own. He may be pushing it with his claim to be 'the most talented Jimmy since Cliff', but In This Life is an engaging and accessible debut.
