Tarik “Jazzy T” Thompson
In Jamaica, the world of reggae & dancehall music is a vital part of the culture. And while dancehall artistes and producers make the music, it is the sound system, DJs, commonly known in Jamaica as selectors, who play the music. While dancehall artistes create the music, it is the selectors who often make or break the popularity of the music by the way they mix them or if they play them or not to live audiences. Out of Kingston, Jamaica in the late 1980s, came the mighty Renaissance Disco. It was a mainly dancehall sound system that crossed music genres into hip hop, mainstream reggae, R&B, house, and soca. Renaissance Disco has seen tremendous commercial success with its original members and some additional members who came along a few years later, including Jazzy T who joined the sound system in 1993.
