There are many kings in the Dancehall world, but in the realm of the dance culture, there are also a few kings, and Ding Dong is one of them. Since the 2000s, he has made his name in the streets as a Creator, and helped to advance the culture. With his rising fame, he delved into the music aspect, and scored a number of hits along the way. It all paid off for him as his brand became International, in recent years, a mainstay in Corporate Jamaica. With the success he amassed, there was something still missing, an album. Today, the Man born Kemar Ottey introduces his debut album, “From Ding Dong To World Ding“.

Consisting of 13 tracks, Ding Dong crosses a new milestone with the release of his 1st album, “From Ding Dong To World Ding”. The Deejay steadily built his catalogue over the years to get to this level, and he delivers a project that showcases what made him a legend, and has something for everybody to enjoy. The album’s energy was made possible in part to the production by the likes of Khalfani Records, Ricky Blaze, Felva, DJ Mac, Dunw3ll, Romeich Entertainment, and Bassick Records, and guest appearances by Skeng, Skillibeng, Kaka Highflames, Vanessa Bling, Stalk Ashley, Govana, Bravo Ravers, Popeye Caution, Afro B, and Busta Rhymes. Ding Dong’s musical journey had a few bumps in the road, but he has experienced the glory, and will write more chapters to the story.
