Aidonia

Known professionally as Aidonia (occasionally acknowledged as Idonia), Sheldon Lawrence is really a deejay from Kingston, Jamaica with an instant, festive flow directly motivated by ’80s and ’90s dancehall reggae. Lawrence 1st began composing lyrics after looking at a 1993 clash between Beenie Man and Bounty Killer. He started carrying out concerts at college, and he created a crew along with his close friends known as J.A.G. 1 (Jah HELPFUL INFORMATION One), also called Jag One Productions or J.O.P. Lawrence resided in NEW YORK for a couple years and experienced minor involvement within the city’s dancehall picture, but he was motivated to come back to Jamaica and pursue music-making like a profession. He fulfilled Mr. G (previously referred to as Goofy) and documented the debut solitary “Many a Dem” in 2003. He started performing at every week occasions in 2004, and documented singles for brands like Orize’n Entertainment and Youthful Blood Information. He met maker Skatta in 2004, and both documented “Lolly,” which became Aidonia’s 1st hit. Since that time, he’s documented several singles and presented on countless compilations on VP Information and Greensleeves Information. The full-length After that and Now made an appearance in 2007. In ’09 2009, Federation Audio released Bolt Actions, a mixtape that presented Aidonia rhyming over a large number of traditional hip-hop and dancehall rhythms. J.O.P. (which include MCs such as for example Deablo, Shokryme, and Tanso) became more vigorous being a collective in the first 2010s, with strikes including “All 14” and “Work Street.” Aidonia’s record One Voice made an appearance in 2013.
