For more than 20 years Squingy, the charismatic DJ of Jamaica?s Bass Odyssey Sound, has captivated audiences with his energetic stage presence and clever toasting skills. His undeniable talent has earned him the respect of his fellow DJs and fans across the world. Now the world-renowned entertainer has decided to permanently relocate to the United States. The decision was not an easy one for him to make; however, Squingy states that he needs to do what is best for his health and well-being. "For years, I've been traveling and entertaining the world. I've given everything to my fans and neglected my own body. I have a terminal Illness and it's time for me to focus on maintaining my health as best I can."
"Moving to the US is going to allow me to receive adequate health care." The decision is undoubtedly going to cause a stir, but Squingy is hopeful that he will continue to receive the love and support he's been getting for many years. One selector in particular has extended his support during this stressful time. Kirky-C, Owner of Poison Dart Sound, Inc. has been instrumental in Squingy?s transition. "He's been a great help to me" says Squingy. "He's given me shelter, he's provided transportation for me; he's offered his unconditional friendship and I will always be thankful to him for that." Kirky-C and others in the fraternity are seeking support from the fans, his fellow DJs and everyone who's enjoyed Squingy's music over the years. "Squingy needs everyone's support right now.
If you're a selector, DJ, soundman, radio DJ, no matter, he needs us! Kirky-C and Poison Dart Sound along with Jazzy T from Renaissance Sound, Bobby Chin from Black Chiney, Father Tek from Tek 9 Movements, Unitec Promotions and DancehallReggae.com are organizing several dates across the United States, including Atlanta, New York and Florida, to salute Squingy.
