Gentleman

Synth-pop
Synth-pop

Gentleman is a Synth-pop act. Their sound grew out of Million Stylez, Richie Stephens, Bob Marley, Alborosie and Diana King. Those roots explain a lot about how Gentleman arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Sizzla, Patrice, Seeed, Alborosie and Collie Buddz, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Stefanie Heinzmann, Afrob, Morgan Heritage, Toots and the Maytals and Ky-Mani Marley, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 35 connections around Gentleman, reaching back through Million Stylez and forward to Stefanie Heinzmann.
