RAZZ & BIGGY A BIG HIT IN EUROPE

“It was pleasantly surprising that people so far from us in Jamaica can be singing the songs that are playing in the dancehall locally”

(A.I.M Inc): With the summer in full swing and the appeal for good quality reggae/dancehall music on a high, the dynamic duo known as Razz & Biggy continue creating waves of memorable performances. Locally they have already been booked and represented well at many of the ‘must go’ events for what is the ‘high party season’ in Jamaica.

On the international scene they have been equally as busy representing dancehall/reggae music with international reggae star – Serani. August 1st saw them at the XS Nightclub in Toronto, Ontario rocking the stage one last time; holding the brakes on what was a two month long tour which saw them going across various venues in and around Europe and Canada. While Razz stayed in Jamaica to carry on the duties of the duo locally, Biggy found himself playing in front of twenty five (25) Jam Packed venues for the duration of the tour that saw him thrilling crowds at events/venues such as ‘Summerjam’ in Germany, DA SHAKE in Belgium, Club Ice in Cyprus, Majestic Club in Paris and The Green Bottle, Colossal Nightclub, Hungarian Hall in Canada amongst others.

After a successful tour in March of this year (2010) which saw Biggy, Serani and the team delivering fun-filled and energetic performances across Europe, the word quickly spread about their vibe filled sets and soon requests were being sent for repeat performances and also for visits to new locations/events. Events like Summerjam which is easily one of the largest and well supported reggae/dancehall festivals in Europe saw thousands of enthusiastic supporters flocking to Germany to enjoy music from some of the more highly requested Entertainers representing the Dancehall Genre. Though Biggy did not share the main stage he played and supported Serani on his set on the smaller stage to much satisfaction from the patrons in attendance. “It was pleasantly surprising that people so far from us in Jamaica can be singing the songs that are playing in the dancehall locally”, Biggy commented about his experience at Summer Jam 2010.

With just a few weeks left before summer officially ends, fans are gearing up for another mini-tour featuring Razz & Biggy touching venues across Europe once more, to date five events have already been confirmed and promoters are pitching to add other events that will adequately satisfy the thirst of the Europeans for music straight out of Jamaica. Summer 2010 continues to one of the more eventful ones for the Dynamic Duo.
