Clifford Smith, also known as Mr.Vegas, developed an affinity for music at an early age. But it was the moment he voiced a track on the Playground Riddim for producer Jeremy Harding, despite a serious injury to his jaw, which sealed his fate in the business. Unfazed by the injury and ambitious, Mr. Vegas laid his one-of-a-kind vocals and created “Nike Air†- an instant hit!
Ever since Mr. Vegas catapulted his way to the top in 1997 with “Nike Air†and the follow up smash “Heads High,†the thriving artist has never looked back. This singjay clearly has the Midas touch when it comes to producing hit songs. Respectfully, “Heads High†became Mr. Vegas’ biggest selling single, receiving heavy rotation on mainstream media outlets including MTV. And the single graced the Billboard charts for quite a few weeks.
Just like the single, the album Heads High of the same name on Greensleeves, made the world stand up and take notice. This exciting debut album took Mr. Vegas and dancehall to another level. With hit songs like “Jacket,†“Sweet Pineapple†and “Everywhere I Go,†Heads High was a chart topper. To top it off, the singjay earned a coveted British Music of Black Origin (MOBO) award for Best Reggae Artist. This honor symbolized that Mr. Vegas’ fan base had expanded way beyond America and the Caribbean.
To prove that the success of his first album was no fluke, Mr.Vegas followed up with a sophomore release on Greensleeves, Damn Right. Laced with a strong R&B and hip-hop flavor, this album contained a myriad of favorites including “Girls Time†and “She's A Ho†and the monster hit “Hot Gal Today†on which he collaborated with Sean Paul. Overall, this album was quite a success for the artist.
Incidentally, the “Hot Gal Today†single was voted one of the all time best collaborations by Vibe Magazine. With his move to the Los Angeles-based independent label Delicious Vinyl Vegas, Mr. Vegas released his third full-length release Pull Up. The title track, which was recorded on Scatta Burrell's hugely popular Coolie Dance riddim, entered the Billboard Charts and again thrusted Vegas to international status.
Later, Mr. Vegas recorded and released the sizzlin’ album Constant Spring. The lead single and title track topped all the major charts in Jamaica. The single was backed by a very creative video that captivated the interest of the dancehall community.
In between releasing well-crafted albums, this dancehall sensation has appeared on all of the Reggae industry’s major shows each year including Guinness Sting, Red Stripe Reggae Sumfest, Fully Loaded and Reggae Sunsplash. In additional to blasting his way through the Caribbean, Mr. Vegas has also thrilled fans in Europe and the U.S. with highly rated performances. He even caused havoc in Japan with his energetic performance. Mr. Vegas is in world-wide demand.
In August 2007, Mr. Vegas released his latest album Hot It Up, distributed by Delicious Vinyl/Fontana in the USA, Five Man Army in Japan and Cargo throughout selected countries in Europe. The critically acclaimed effort includes the fiery tracks “Tek Wey Yuhself,†“Lean Wid It,†“Nuh Friend From Dem,†“Hot Wuk†and many more.
Mr.Vegas has maintained a steady presence on the music scene with chart toppers such as “Hot Wuk,†which dominated all of the major American, Caribbean and European charts. The single even made an entrance on Billboard’s Hot R&B/ Hip Hop Singles chart. For Dancehall artist Mr. Vegas, every day provides new opportunities. As entertaining the massive with quality Reggae music is his passion, Mr. Vegas will continue to be a dominant force in the music industry.
