Meet Smiley!



Smiley

Meet Smiley! Call him the latest 'next big thing' in a seemingly never ending stream of Reggae artists from out of the Netherlands and the Dutch Caribbean Smiley has slowly, but surely, been blowing up in the Reggae world, pushing out some very nice vibes. Smiley now lives in The Netherlands, but was born and raised on the island of Aruba (biggup all Aruba massive) and joins artists like Ziggi representing the Dutch Caribbean on the large scale.

Currently, Smiley is riding high with a single, Dem A Wonder, which features longtime Jamaican Reggae veteran Junior Kelly and was produced by Taffari and co. at Al.Ta.Fa.An





The tune has been attracting quite a bit of attention and spinning throughout the islands and has made it to the point where there was enough demand for the tune that he has released it as a single along with a WICKED next tune, Crazy Mind, also produced by Al.Ta.Fa.An.



(Available at iTunes, Amazon, Emusic etc.)

Stylewise, Smiley is a chanter much in the same style of the Junior Kellys and Jah Masons of the world. There's also a SOLID promo floating around online and an album (with more production from Al.Ta.Fa.An) is expected to come later in the year.

So keep an eye out for Smiley, another nice Dutchie on the Reggae scene.
