built 287 days ago
The 33-year-old Kingston native, born Moses Davis, but better know 'round the world as Beenie Man, is the dancehall movement personified. His 2002 set, Tropical Storm only further solidified him in the U. S. with it's brilliant collaboration with Janet Jackson, 'Feel It Boy' and this track Bossman.

Beenie Man rightly proclaimed himself, King Of The Dancehall, a couple years ago and no one in the battle-based culture batted an eye-lash. Why? Because when it comes to chats and riddems, Beenie Man is the alpha and the omega. That is, the 33-year-old Kingston native, born Moses Davis, but better know 'round the world as Beenie Man, is the dancehall movement personified. Releasing his first record, "Too Fancy" at the tender age of 7-years-old in in '81, Beenie has not only been at the forefront of the genre ever since, but has been largely responsible for growing it into the international phenomenon it is today. And it is exactly this legacy which his latest U.S. release, Undisputed, serves to maintain.

Beenie Man (aka Moses Davis) was born in the tough Waterhouse district of Kingston, Jamaica, on August 22, 1973. By the time he was ready for school, the toddler had already decided on a career as a DJ. He wasn't the first tot with dreams of the limelight, but Beenie actually had a true gift for gab.

Reggae star BEENIE MAN has been freed on bail by a judge in his native Jamaica after appearing in court on charges of tax evasion. An arrest warrant was issued for Beenie Man - real name Anthony Moses Davis - last week (24Oct07) after he failed to attend court to answer the charges. The Dude hitmaker owes the Jamaican revenue department $415,000 (GBP207,500) and a further $246,000 (GBP123,000) in penalties. He claims he was unaware he owed the money, and blamed his business managers for the slip-up. But after turning up to his latest court hearing on Monday (29Oct07), a judge decided to release the 34-year-old on $21,100 (GBP10,550) bail. He is due back in court on 3 December (07).
