Dirtsman - Acid

The brother of Papa San, Dirtsman was a similary inclined dancehall DJ until his brutal killing on december 21 1993. He was shot on his veranda by four gunmen, being pronounced dead on arrival at Spanish Town Hospital. His first chart appearance came with 'Thank You' in 1990, preceding 'Borrow Man' on Steely & Clevie's label. Later he teamed up with Philip Smart in New York, wich offered him further success with 'Hot This Year'.
Thanks to Crucial B for the contribution.
