BIOGRAPHY SPECTACULAR:

Like so many of jamaican Hit-Makers, Spectacular is a product of the ghetto (born January 26th, 1976 in Kingston, Jamaica). He hails from the Kencot area of Kingston and was educated at the Maxfield Park Primary- and Norman Manley High-School.

It was from the street corner that he graduated to start hanging out at the Penthouse recording facility, after school. In 1993 he made his first major stage performance after he had passed an audition for the "Yard and Broad" promoted, StarWave 93, at Fort Clarence/ Jamaica.

In 1996 his first recording, "I Love This Girl", on the Chop Chop Label, was released. Right after this first record, Spectacular was burning more fire on the jamaican airwaves with Hit-Singles like "Melody In Your Voice" for Buju Bantons Gargamel Label and "Push On Though", "Who Hail The Man" an "Love & Joy" produced by veteran engineer "Soljie" Hamilton and Dean Frazier. Between 1997 and 2000 Spectacular performed on countless stageshows in Jamaica and recorded for Producers like Bobby Digital or Dean Frazier.

Within the years Spectacular worked with different european Producers like Ganglords from Switzerland and Pionear from Germaican Records in Germany to built a strong link with the european reggae market. In 2003 he went to switzerland for his first 4 shows overseas.

In 2004 he toured in Austria and Germany together with Lutan Fyah and I-Tal Acoustic Sound. While Spectacular was on tour he voiced for several producers in europe to create enough tunes for his first Album. This succesfull tour created a strong name for the artist in the european reggae-scene and finally leads Spectacular to his first album called "Find Yourself".
