Through all the ups and downs , success' and failures, i am thankful i found a way to continue loving myself.. I am an artist for the most parts; singer/songwriter, music producer, entertainer, i paint and i love Art . I dabble in all styles, like the practicality of acrylic but i prefer oil. I am challenged to stay with one style, for an artist this is not good. Thank goodness for music! Art is therapy and something deeply reassuring for me . I am always moved and inspired by a great piece of work, be it sculpture, paintings, fashion, photography, interior decorating, architectural designs, acting, dancing, etc.etc..I also love gardening with a passion..complete silence nature, beauty and my fingers in the soil. I constantly strive to cultivate, be aware of, and maintain the behavior that will enable me to be a better person. But bwoy do i fail a lot!!! Spiritual discipline; my greatest challenge!!! The other thing is i studied music at Bronx Community & Lehman College.....I am very luck having experienced a great career thus far..and i am not where i want to be...but the journey is sweet...... Have been on the reggae scene since the 80's....Opening shows for Wailers, Toots, Jimmy Cliff, and many more..Long island city, Queens-early 90's....I was a part of a great rock band called "Strange Indeed" ( Randy Lee, Ray Lowie, James Liebow, Tony Gracci, oh and Ari Friedman)..I will always love and respect you guy for teaching me so much and putting up with my insanity..I left the band scene and went solo. But it would be years later, before i landed a major record deal for Germany as a solo artist. My management in Germany was more interested in my budget (money) at Edel Records than my development...Crooks disguised as management, using me(artist) as their decoy to rob the record company...I fought for what they agreed to pay me, got it and exited their burning building.....Germany was the best thing that happen to me in my adult life and career...Now i see that the record deal was just a vehicle to Europe. After 25 years in NYC, this is where spirit placed me and i am humbled and thankful...Now in Germany, my band is the One Drop reggae band. In Jamaica my band is called Raging Fire.....With One Drop Band , we opened for Buju, Toots and Alpha Blondy in Bern Switzerland, 2006 and in August i performed at Reggae sunslpash with my band Raging fire...
In the 90's while with the rock band strange indeed, we shared a warehouse called Exile with filmmakers ( The don himself) - Rich Ardino and Andy Watts...as house mates...I was instantly fascinated with the film world. ....The later part of the 90's i worked with Passport film (Michael Ellenbogen and Ms Illia Chakin with Margarita Happy hour, full length feature. The film debuted at Time Square Virgin mega store.It was a proud moment for all involved but especially for Ms Chakin..I was happy to be a part of the genesis.. ........Is it any wonder that i am soooo excited about the potential of the film industry in Jamaica....For now i will flex my little film muscles with music videos...but i am itching, watching, listening, and planning for my say in this great possibility for the Jamaican film industry....We are a small island but we have so many great STORIES to tell....If you doubt me...Ask PERRY HENZELL...with sincere and appreciative love-May he rest in peace......THE HARDER THEY COME; THE HARDER THEY FALL..*RAY DARWIN* ..PEOPLE'S CHOICE Add to My Profile | More Videos

Ritmi ragga/hip-hop e liriche ben più che esplicite, sono gli ingredienti alla base del nuovo lavoro collettivo della tribù pugliese per antonomasia. Gli mc’s, cantanti e musicisti “apulici”, in un lavoro che conserva l’immediatezza delle dance-hall e la genuinità delle mix tapes, si esprimono senza mezzi termini sul microcosmo culturale e sociale della penisola nella penisola: la Puglia. E’ un viaggio che dalla loro regione si apre al mondo, trasportandoci in un universo di precarietà esistenziale, antiche e nuove crisi economiche, stati normativi di eccezione per i migranti della Terra rinchiusi nei Cpt, gioia di vivere, resistenza civile e amore per la propria terra. Agli esponenti storici della Tribe si aggiungono nuove e originali voci, dalla Terra di Bari al Salento, dall’Altopiano delle Murge alle sterminate coste ioniche e adriatiche, per una tradizione musicale che si rinnova nel presente e nel passato.
