Representing UK Roots/Reggae Artist SKiBU

About Me

Representing UK Roots Artist SKiBU:

First and foremost, I am the FEMALE in the profile pic, and the man behind me is not SKiBU, he is my Lion, my very SO (Significant Other) from the only place truly ever felt like home to me, my beloved island of Barbados. I enjoy photography and my page background is a shot of a beach on the south coast. It's our lil spot we call "Base".

I represent UK Roots Artist SKiBU. I handle all enquires and public relations on his behalf, and generally try to raise awareness of our many other quality UK acts along the way. Many feature on 'Friends' and I encourage you to visit their pages and show some support. My theory is the more we all network and support each other, the more we can succeed as a genre - backstabbing and territorial behaviour won't get you nowhere.

Samples of SKiBU's music are on my page for you to enjoy. There's more of his music, slideshows and Bio on his own MySpace page - just click his pic above to go there:

SKiBU has a firm belief in KEEPING MUSIC LIVE. He loves live performances and tours. His preferred band :

The Reggae Revolution

Since moving to the Cayman Islands, I also have the privilige to work with Mr Notch, who is one of the hottest solo artists to emerge on the reggae scene over here. He has taken the Jamaican roots of the reggae sound and expanded his music into a complete range of melodic, conscious reggae. This Caymanian has gained international recognition while sharing the stage with acclaimed reggae artists such as Shaggy, Maxi Priest, Beres Hammond, Third World, UB40, Morgan Heritage and Natural Black.

Mr Notch

Currently Mr Notch performs live in Cayman as lead vocalist for reggae band LocalMotion 345.

My current track listing is as follows:

1. Call On Me - From SKiBU's debut album 'Surround Me With Love' Humal Records, Birmingham, UK (1999/2000)

2. I've Got A Feeling - The Reggae Revolution band featuring SKiBU - from the Pure Promises EP by The Reggae Revolution on Zenith Records, UK (2004)

3. Kiss You Goodnight - SKiBU & Charmaine - YUSH Records, UK (2003)

4. Cool You by Mr Notch

All music featured on my page is by permission of the artists who are MySpace members, and in my top friends list so you can easily link to their pages if you'd like to hear more
