Justin Chong aka 'Dappa Yute' was born October 21st, 1984 in West Palm Beach, Florida. Adopted to a Jamaican father and British mother, he was raised in Kingston, Jamaica. He went to school, played sports and loved listening to music, like any other teenager. He was in and out of schools, and he eventually realized that there were things he wanted to say but didn't know how to say them; so he turned to writing music as a creative outlet. He started recording with his friends at a home studio soon thereafter. The artiste fondly recalls, wasn't that serious at first, I just made music for fun. But after recording a few songs, people started to take notice. Dappa Yute has performed at Reggae Sumfest '92, the biggest live reggae show in the world, where he opened for Lionel Richie and Kanye West
Throughout the making of his first album, he had ups and downs, and in the process, he grew tremendously, but he..'s ready for the next level. He says, I've been making music and doing my thing for years now, but I feel like I haven't gotten the respect I deserve. Now I'm going all out. Dappa Yute is poised to take the world by storm. His style is unique as is his vocal ability, and with 'Jamaican Whiteboy' being his second album to date, Dappa is more optimistic than ever.
