The much anticipated Because I Love You was released in Spring 2009, following Billy's 15 year hiatus in which he spent time with his family and built a studio in Grenada. The album is a culmination of his unique pop style and his Caribbean background sounding fresh and soulful with an eclectic mix of ballads, reggae tunes and soca beats. The tracks are a fusion of the old and new sound of Billy Ocean. Aqua Music. Produced by Billy Ocean & Greg Assing.
