More billboard success for Serani

Serani

Jamaican singer Serani has scored his second successive billboard hit with She Loves Me, the second single from his upcoming album.

Debuting this week at number 82 on the Billboard Hot Hip Hop/R&B Chart, She Loves Me is in heavy rotation on the station that breaks dancehall records in the United States - New York's HOT 97 - as well as at other urban and crossover formats across the country.

"It's a great time for Jamaica right now," said Serani. "Our athletes are on top of the world and we're continuing to make huge strides like Usain with our music! 2009 has been a great year for me and for Jamaican music, now I am just readying up to drop the album and try to move some units!"

Video shoot

The video for She Loves Me will be shot in New York over the next two weeks, which will propel the song further into the realms of mainstream America. Serani, who self-produced the song, also has a hot track bubbling on US radio with rapper Webstar.

Serani is slated to appear on Miami's POWER 96 FM's Beach House show on Saturday at the Deauville beach resort on Miami Beach, alongside T-Pain, Flo Rida, Kid Cudi, Trick Daddy, Trina, Jagged Edge and more.

He will be hitting New York on Friday, September 4, with fellow Alliance members Bounty Killer and Mavado for HOT 97's On Da Reggae Tip at the Hammerstein Ballroom.
