Description
TURTLE MAN traveled across Jamaica with sound systems such as Young Gemini Sound, TG Sound and the MXIII Sound. Sleeping in the back of a truck or on the speaker box...often disrespected by selectors. He decided to take a break for a couple of years to farm.
A few years later, while sleeping in the woods, he heard footsteps and a voice telling him to go back to the music. From there on, his talent for writing music and voicing lyrics has been unstoppable.
