He-man

<p>He-Man is a ruffneck raggamuffin DJ coming straight out of the Cockburn Pen area of Jamaica's Western Kingston ghettos. </p>
<p>His career started when he linked up with the producer Piper and began to work with other artists from this stable like <a href="http://www.bigupradio.com/artistDetail.jsp?aid=1184">General Degree</a>, <a href="http://www.bigupradio.com/artistDetail.jsp?aid=1924">Reggie Stepper</a> and Joseph Stepper. </p>
<p>Piper had a label deal with Paris's King Dragon crew and He-Man's debut album was released in the early 90s. "<em>Badness and Niceness</em>" saw him teamed up with Joseph Stepper and they shared the album between them. He-Man also voiced some intros on the King Dragon "<em>Dub Story</em>" dub set released around the same time. </p>
<p>After Piper stopped producing, the artists went their separate ways - General Degree to Danny Browne's Main Street, and Reggie Stepper and Joseph Stepper to <a href="http://www.bigupradio.com/labelDetail.jsp?lid=275">Steely and Clevie</a>. He-Man however decided to take a break and only released a couple of other tracks, including one on the Tribute To The Reggae Boyz set. </p>
<p>He-Man decided to come to England in 1999 and teamed up with The <a href="http://www.bigupradio.com/artistDetail.jsp?aid=236">Rootsman</a>. They began working on a number of tracks, and He-Man's specials began to be heavily featured in Rootsman's DJ set. </p>
<p>An EP entitled "<em>DJ Super Clash</em>" was released in November 1999 and saw He-Man alongside <a href="http://www.bigupradio.com/artistDetail.jsp?aid=2513">Daddy Freddy</a> for 2 tracks each on two of Rootsman's tough dancehall riddims (including the bad boy anthem "<em>Killer</em>"). </p>
<p>"<em>Killer</em>" has since been remixed by The Bug for the underground club hit on Razor X 7" single, and also by Al-Haca Sound System on the Different Drummer 12". </p>
