Skyjuice Promotions presents Richie Spice
Pumpehuset Studiestræde 53 København K
Entrance fee: 200 kr.-
For the first time, since 2005 when he visited the Roskilde Festival, international reggae artist Richie Spice is coming to Copenhagen. He is the man behind great hits such as: "Marijuana Pon Di Corner", "Gideon Boot", "Ghetto Girl", "Youths Dem Cold", "Brown Skin", "The Plane Land", "Earth A Run Red" so a vibeful concert, with lots of hits an' nuff big tunes is promised
Born Richell Bonner in the Kingston, Jamaica suburb of St. Andrew, Richie Spice hails from a musical family that includes his older brother Pliers (from the deejay/singer duo Chaka Demus and Pliers of “Murder She Wrote” fame), singer Spanner Banner and deejay Snatcher Dogg. It was Spanner Banner, (best known for his mid 90s hit “Life Goes On”) who first brought Spice to the recording studio; the hopeful singer, admittedly, couldn’t manage the rigors of professional recording but the opportunity opened his eyes to the proficiency required to succeed in the reggae industry. “That experience show me that to reach anywhere there is a lot of work to be done,” Spice reflects.
Spice continued working towards gaining a foothold in the music industry and shortly thereafter he met veteran producer Clive Hunt who produced his breakthrough single, the engaging lovers rock tune “Grooving My Girl”, still one of the most popular songs in Spice’s repertoire. “Grooving” was initially featured on Spice’s 2000 debut album “Universal”, as was the song that would make him a household name in Jamaica, “Earth A Run Red”.
Since 2004 Spice has become one of reggae’s most in demand talents and the recipient of numerous awards and accolades. He received the Most Cultural Artist Award at the 13th annual South Florida Reggae Soca Awards in 2005; he was voted the Male Singer/Singjay of the Year at Jamaica’s IRIE FM Awards in 2007 and following his performance at the first annual “Black My Story” concert held in Kingston on Feb. 2, 2008 Spice was honored for his positive musical contributions. His 2004 album “Spice in Your Life” was listed among the year’s best reggae releases by the New York Times; “In the Streets To Africa”, released in 2007, reached number 6 on the Billboard Reggae chart and one of the album’s biggest hits “Youth Dem Cold” peaked at number 59 on the Billboard Top 100 Singles Chart and ranked at number 29 on Vibe Magazine’s Best 44 songs of 2007. Now with the release of “Gideon Boot” even greater recognition is assured for Spice’s talent, as is the expansion of his international fan base.
“I’ve always had a wide meditation of having my music go out there to the world because I know it can go far,” says Spice. “But it is very hard singing of righteousness in the world. When you sing of good you will find that evil rise up and try to dominate good. But I will continue the fight, go out there and have people hear what I am saying.”

Entrance fee: Billetpris kr. 100,-. Medlem af Paletten
Showstoppers Entertainment presents:
Karen Mukupa
Efter en pause på 7 år udsendte Karen Mukupa i foråret 2009 langt om længe et nyt album. "Dreamer" er titlen på albummet, som hun har høstet succes med både herhjemme, men ikke mindst i udlandet. Musikken er et helt specielt mix af reggae, afro og latin med en snert af hiphop tilsat et ordentligt stænk R+B. Et mix som gør udtrykket helt unikt.
