At a smoky bar in 70s Kingston, Jamaica, music pulsates from the speakers. A five-year old boy, in the company of his grandfather, suddenly feels the music and spins in circles as he dances. This is the day Prince Mydas discovers rhythm lives in his soul. This is the moment that births his intense passion for music, a passion that one day will lead him to script and sing the songs he hears in his head. By the end of his schooldays, he will have made the first step towards a career in music a self-produced single featuring the ballad So Lost Without You. The song is accepted by Jammys, Jamaicas most successful record label.
With the exposure gained from airplay of his single, Mydas was asked to become lead singer for the acclaimed reggae band, Ruff Kutt. For several years, he learned the art and business of music first-hand as the group opened for Shabba Ranks and Patra on international tours. After a professionally unfulfilling move to Miami, Mydas decided to give the New York music scene a try. Past discussions with the acclaimed producer/manager Robert Livingston led to Mydas appearance on Shaggy's multi-platinum album, Hotshot. The song "Hope" was featured on the soundtrack of the Kevin Costner movie, For The Love Of The Game and work began immediately on a collection of songs that would showcase Mydas sensual, silky-smooth voice and writing talent. One of them, Still The One - an ode to a time-tested love, was featured on the soundtrack of the 2002 Eddie Murphy/Robert De Niro big-screen release "Showtime".
The result is a tantalizing mix that introduces many facets of the Mydas sound an enticing blend of R&B, hip-hop, and reggae. The tracks are built around the familiar themes of love sweet love, spiritual love, and a touch of love run amok. Like many an emerging neo-soul artist, he skips the booty calling and sings to the heart. It wasnt hard to open up, says Mydas. I decided long ago that I would put everything I have into every word and every line, so what I sing is what I feel.
The release of Mydas first album was railroaded by the folding of former record label MCA in 2003. Mydas, however, formed his own label with longtime pal and writing-mate, Rik Rok from "It Wasnt Me" fame. The album is now set for release under the new label MOBA Entertainment. With Mydas now in full control of his destiny, it seems the listening public will finally be able to put the voice with the face and electric performances that Prince Mydas has been known for in some circles. "Just Imagine", "Real Hardcore" and "I'd Rather Sleep Alone" are just a few of the taste-bud-teasing titles to be featured on the upcoming album.
Hey Prince. Just stoping by to tell you that you are oh! so very talented, I love you and wish you all the best. May the Lord give you all that you want and more of what you need. Peace and Love
