Dub man Peddy D is one of the Caribbeans most original singers. Singing in a uniquely Bajan style his lyrics have a strongly positive and conscious message. He has performed with many international artists including Sizzla, Capleton, Culture, Fred Locks, and Bounty Killer. He is part of the conscious dancehall movement generation of dub men that includes Sizzla, Richie Spice, Capleton Chuck Fenda, Luciano and Jah Mason etc.



Peddy D was born in Queens Street, Speightstown in the 1970s. He honed his vocal skill playing local sound systems with other Bajan artists including Shuga Shawn, Twinman, Shaky Ranks, Brownman and Simian. Peddy felt a High Calling and adopted the Rastafarian faith through the Twelve Tribes of Israel who have a strong reggae presence on Barbados. Plans are to go and record in Africa in 2010. Africa being the spiritual home of the Rasta. Peddy stands against all forms of oppression or slavery. Music is a vehicle for his message. Peddys' combination of Rasta principles and up-to-the-minute dancehall rhythms makes his hard line approach more palatable. A brilliant and passionate performer, Peddy is breaking boundaries, appealing to those looking for something new, music with depth. He remains a mysterious figure, having little or no contact with the media. Music is a vital means of delivering his message. His rare live appearances are always sold out. Like Bob Marley and Sizzla before him and the Conscious hip hop artists of today, Peddy stands for truth through music. A principal figure in the Bajan roots and culture revolution, he is inspiring dispossessed Bajans and newcomers to reggae music alike. Peddy D recently toured the UK in summer 2007 and is looking to play the European Festival circuit in 2008. Please get in touch if you would like Peddy D to perform at your festival. Bless.
