Born of Antiguan parents and raised in London's East End, Mistah Brown is genuinely passionate about playing the music he loves, whether in an intimate club setting or on the scale of the Notting Hill Carnival where the Tighten Up Crew have been part of the Gladdy Wax Sound System Road Show for over a decade. Now in it's 14th year, London's Tighten Up party remains one of the most respected Reggae nights in the world with an international roster of the finest DJs dropping by to spin tunes or take in the vibes when they're in the UK. Mistah Brown remains modest about the achievements and always gives a nod to the musicians and producers who created the music that first inspired him.
Queen Majesty starts out the show with a set dedicated to the late great Marvin Gaye, on this the week of both his birth and passing. The second hour is expertly handled by Mistah Brown, who brought along 45s you wish you had in your collection such as some killer London cuts and ond ones like baby Junior Reid's first tune. Nuff Respect! Big up Tim P., Champion and the whole UK massive! Check the archive.
