Another Dancehall Icon Beenie Man.
Beenie Man has been on the dancehall scene since the early 1990's.
Beenie Man was under the influence of legendary artist such as Barrington Levy.
Beenie Man was born in the Waterhouse District of Kingston,Jamaica. Beenie Man got his start in the 1990's at the Shocking Vibes studio. His Carrer took off after performing at Reggae Sunsplash festival in 1992.
Beenie Man had his first number one single in Jamaica in 1993 with "Matie", and he won the DJ of the Year Award the same year, the first of eight consecutive awards. Beenie Man dominated the dancehall charts in the late 1990's and claimed himself the "Dancehall King".
Beenie Man released hits like this in the 1990's "Romie", "Who Am I","Slam" and "Dancehall Queen".
Beenie Man is one artist that as time goes by in my opinion never gets younger he evolves as the time changes. Beenie Man has released hits in 2008 named,"Gimme Gimme","Pickney Nuh Hold Yuh Down" and "Wine Gyal" all songs that appeal to his biggest fans women.
Beenie Man is set to release a new album this year entitled" The Legend Returns"
