LAST year, American rhythm and blues singer Giveon scored a minor hit with For Tonight. The song was produced by Sevn Thomas, a Toronto-born producer whose parents are from Jamaica. His uncle is popular 1980s deejay Rappa Robert from the duo Tippa Lee and Rappa Robert.

Singer D Major’s reggae spin on For Tonight has resulted in his first charted single on the Foundation Radio Network (New York) Reggae Chart. It entered at number 28 last weekend.

His version is produced by Donovan Germain for Penthouse Records, who has produced countless hit singles including Just Don’t Wanna Be Lonely, a top 10 British smash for Freddie McGregor in 1987; and One Dance Won’t Do by Audrey Hall which peaked at number 20 on the British chart in 1986.

D Major (real name Damion Codlin) was once lead singer of Q-T (Quality and Togetherness). His hits include a cover of Bonnie Raitt’s I Can’t Make You Love Me, Real Know Real, and Party Like It’s Your Birthday.
