     ▓     Many are called, few are chosen. Singer, songwriter Army,     ▓
     ▓     is soon to be the choice of many. His debut CD, entitled      ▓
     ▓     "Yesterday's News", currently re-released by        ▓
     ▓     Dub Rise Records in conjunction with DSP Music, along         ▓
     ▓     with his follow up CD, entitled "Struggler"         ▓
     ▓     also released by Dub Rise Records, could both be best         ▓
     ▓     described as refreshingly original. Try to remember what      ▓
     ▓     pure, real, reggae music sounds like. This is the sound       ▓
     ▓     we've been missing. It's been a long time since we've         ▓
     ▓     heard it, some of us may have forgotten. But it's back,       ▓
     ▓     in the form of "Yesterday's News", and              ▓
     ▓     "Struggler". They both explore a variety of         ▓
     ▓     spiritually conscious lyrics that take you on a journey       ▓
     ▓     in the lives of all people. While his debut CD is a           ▓
     ▓     classic, his follow up CD gives you a variety of flavors      ▓
     ▓     that shows how much the artist has grown. You immediately     ▓
     ▓     feel what reggae music is all about. While fulfilling a       ▓
     ▓     deep desire to communicate positive messages to others,       ▓
     ▓     Army brings his vision to life through his music. His         ▓
     ▓     unique ability to use poetry allows him to simultaneously     ▓
     ▓     send clear and subtle messages that will touch any heart.     ▓

     ▓     Army was born Fritzmaurice Williams and raised in St.         ▓
     ▓     Croix, Virgin Islands. At the age of five, he began his       ▓
     ▓     musical journey in the youth choir at the church his          ▓
     ▓     family attended. Little did he know that he was laying        ▓
     ▓     the foundation for what would become a very promising         ▓
     ▓     career in music. Determined to explore a variety of           ▓
     ▓     musical styles, he played the saxophone, became a member      ▓
     ▓     in a jazz band and sang in various local bands. Inspired      ▓
     ▓     and influenced by artists such as Nat King Cole, Dennis       ▓
     ▓     Brown and Freddy McGregor, Army couldn't go wrong. The        ▓
     ▓     Greats all played their part in shaping the well-rounded      ▓
     ▓     singer. He later migrated to the United States and            ▓
     ▓     attended New York's School of the Performing Arts. After      ▓
     ▓     high school, he enlisted in the US Army, and attended         ▓
     ▓     military tech school. Later he trained and worked in the      ▓
     ▓     HVAC industry. But music soon found it's way back into        ▓
     ▓     his life in a big way.                                        ▓
     ▓                                                                   ▓

     ▓     After completing his education and venturing off to           ▓
     ▓     pursue other goals, he went back home to where it all         ▓
     ▓     began; the Virgin Islands. He began singing background        ▓
     ▓     vocals in the Front Line band and various other bands.        ▓
     ▓     His friend, Jahole, who also performs on the CD,              ▓
     ▓     encouraged him, became his mentor and showed him the ways     ▓
     ▓     of music and performing with various reggae bands. When       ▓
     ▓     the time was right, Army took his place as lead singer of     ▓
     ▓     the X Factor Band, a promising band making their mark in      ▓
     ▓     the Virgin Islands. It wasn't long before the word was        ▓
     ▓     out about the obvious talent Army and X Factor had to         ▓
     ▓     offer. Here comes Abdul Williams, CEO of Dub Rise             ▓
     ▓     Records, Inc and Dean Pond of DSP Music who had teamed up     ▓
     ▓     to form a winning partnership.                                ▓
     ▓                                                                   ▓

     ▓                                                                   ▓
     ▓     Army's mission is clear and he believes we are all            ▓
     ▓     mutually dependent on each other. "I want to send        ▓
     ▓     positive universal messages to people through my music,       ▓
     ▓     without the commercialism we see so much today." He      ▓
     ▓     accomplishes this with great ease and feels he has only       ▓
     ▓     scratched the surface of what he plans to contribute to       ▓
     ▓     the world of music. Dub Rise Records and DSP Music no         ▓
     ▓     doubt share his vision. It is evident when listening to       ▓
     ▓     any project with their stamp on it. For Army, the future      ▓
     ▓     holds only one thing... Music. He plans to continue           ▓
     ▓     writing songs and would like to study the piano. He will      ▓
     ▓     not be venturing off to write screenplays, produce sound      ▓
     ▓     tracks, direct movies or dance videos. "Fortunately      ▓
     ▓     for us, he will remain true to himself and continue doing     ▓
     ▓     what he does best ...... sing. Sit back, relax and enjoy      ▓
