Beenie Man "Anthony Moses Davis" was born on August 22, 1973 in Waterhouse Kingston St. Andrew.
He is also known as "Ras Moses, The Doctor, The Girls Dem Sugar" and King of the Dancehall.
He started out in the music industry from a tender age of 10 years old. He was encourage by one of his uncle who was a drummer for the world renown Jimmy Cliff. Research are showing that he is one of the youngest dancehall artiste to have entered into the dancehall and reggae musicindustry.
From an early age he was out selecting and toasting on sound systems.
His first break came when he entered the Tastee Talent Contest in 1981 and came out the winner. But he would also have to give much thanks to veteran radio personality Barry Gordon (Barry G).
He was the one who introduce him to some of the major sound systems operator in the business at that time.
Beenie man's first recording came in 1981 for producer Henry "Junjo" Lawes, the track was titled "Too Fancy". He continued working with Junjo resulting in the release of his first album titled " The Invincible Beenie Man".
In the early years of his career he work with producers such as "Winston Holness, Barrington Levy and Bunny Lee".
The 1990's was the big years for Moses. After teaming up with Patrick Roberts together they formed "Shocking Vibes" recordingstudio and label.
Roberts was the wind behind his career which help to launched him into the spotlight. This also help him to appear on big shows, such as Reggae Sunsplash, Ghetto Splash, Sting, Teen Splash amongst many others.
With everyone now talking about him, he was the artiste to do collabs with. Artiste such as Dennis Brown, Triston Palmer, Mad Cobra and
Lady Saw
did some work with him. He had a monster hit with lady saw titled " Healing".
In 1996 Beenie man release his debut album titled "Maestro" for Roberts and Shocking Vibes. The album was a huge success in Britain and Europe. His Single “Who I Am” also did very well in Canada, United States and UK.
