The Music Fraternity Welcomes Mr. Cooper The Smooth Ruler!
The Music Fraternity has welcomed Canada’s Mr. Cooper thanks to the release of his Gregory Isaacs cover “All I Have is Love” along with his original “My God is Real.”
With a voice as smooth as fine wine that sounds just like Reggae’s beloved Cool Ruler Gregory Isaacs, Mr. Cooper has forged a niche in music that has made him both popular and in demand in Canada and across the Caribbean. Performing from the premise that music is the essence of emotions, Mr. Cooper is known for keeping fans in the emotional love zone which comes through in the release of his two new singles “All I Have is Love” and “My God is Real.”
Born in Kingston, Jamaica, Mr. Cooper was influenced by the sounds of Reggae, Dancehall and Gospel which he incorporates in the music he shares with the world. Now based in Toronto, Canada, the majority of Mr. Cooper’s music is produced in Canada while maintaining the authentic sounds of Reggae he was born and raised with.
With the release of his singles “All I Have is Love” and “My God is Real,” fans will notice just how much the artist sounds like Gregory Isaacs. Of this resemblance, Mr. Cooper says “fans tell me how much I remind them of Gregory, so they’re the ones who gave me the name ‘The Smooth Ruler.’ I love them for that, and Gregory is one of my favorite singers.”
Released on the VPAL imprint (a division of VP Records), Mr. Cooper’s music has been welcomed by the global music fraternity. In addition to being an award winning singer, Mr. Cooper is a songwriter and producer and contributes to his label, Cancer Music. He has worked with Maxi Priest, Buju Banton and Sanchez, and is a JUNO Award Nominee for Best Reggae Recording (2003), and a Canadian Reggae Award winner for Best Male Vocalist.
