Reggae
One-half of ragga/hip-hop duo Born Jamericans, Notch played a key part ushering in dancehall to American urban radio in the '90s with singles like "Boom Shak-a-Tak" and "Send My Love." He served as the sultry, smooth-singing counterpart to Edley Shine's rugged, toasting rhymes. After the group disbanded in 1998, Notch began tapping into his Latin roots and re-emerged in the 2000s as a hot reggaeton newcomer. Singing in English, Spanish, and Jamaican patois (sometimes all at once, which he coined "Spatoinglish"), he adds merengue, cumbia, and bachata in addition to urban pop and hip-hop to his interchanging medley of reggaeton and dancehall. ~ Cyril Cordor
Notch has also released music as a member of Born Jamericans.
