 | FEATURE: Sting International - Tha Sound |
DJ/Music Producer/Arranger/Writer/Composer/Co-Executive producer for the multi-platinum, diamond selling international performing artist "Shaggy". I've produced the hit songs of Shaggy "Big Up", "Oh Carolina", "Boombastic", "It Wasn't Me", "Angel", "Strength Of A Woman", "Wild Tonite" (feat Olivia from G-Unit", "Church Heathen"(co-produced with Tony "CD" Kelly), "Bonafide" feat: Rik Rok & Tony Gold, and the lates release, "Bad Man Don't Cry". I've also produced songs with artists Red Fox & Screechy Dan "Pose Off", Rayvon, Maxi Priest, "That Girl" feat: Shaggy), Beres Hammond "(If I Didn't Call You) Sweetness", Daville, Barrington Levy, Olivia (from G-Unit), Chaka Khan, etc...mixed & remixed songs with/for Shabba Ranks, Super Cat, Machel Montano, Sean Paul, Elephant Man, & Will Smith to name a few. These are mostly Reggae, but I do Deep House & Dance Music as well.
"Sting International".... originally known as a "DJ crew/sound system" since the 80's playing in local dancehalls and night clubs throughout Brooklyn...(Biltmore Ballroom/Tilden Ballroom/Love People One/Village Hut/ & Club Illusion...now known as Caribbean City, etc.) eventually moving up into mainstream nightclubs throughout the 5 boroughs...mainly Manhattan, (Bentleys, Silver Shadow, Red Parrot, Red Zone, The Latin Quarter and the most legendary of all, The Underground a.k.a. Union Square, Act III in the Bronx). Soon to follow was the great success of the radio show on 98.7 Kiss FM Sunday nights ("Hip House Reggae" w/ Dahved Levi as the announcer/host....and 'Sting International' as the music programmer / DJ / selector)... a major attribute to the success of reggae and caribbean music being broadcasted Citywide on the FM airwaves, now globally.
Another notch was added when I was welcomed into DJ'ing for the roller skating world in the 90s. The home base EMPIRE ROLLER RINK in Brooklyn was another leap in my musical journey along with the kings of the skate world, "DJ BIG BOB" & long time friend from "The Rink" in Jersey, DJ Mario (Sound Haven). Despite the success of my music production for Shaggy, my first love is and always will be DJ'ing. Nowadays you can catch me spinning Deep House and Classics, of course with assorted flavors added to the mix! ....here's some of my work in the music production world:
