Over the last four year Massive B has ever increased
it presents with its latest recruits Chutney shotter and
Big Dawg (a.k.a Bling). Chutneyand Big Dawg have
both contributed to sound bringing there own flava and
experience. Big Dawg, getting his start on the collage
scene (Stern School of Business, NYU graduate) brings
big sound vibes to the dancehall behind the turntables,
behind the amp rack, and behind the keyboard. Selecting
alongside Jabba, Big Dawg also engineers the massive sound
system for Massive B and recently manages updates to Massive
B’s website.
Under the vision of original producer
and founder Bobby Konders, Massive B has been a leading
independent label putting out a variety of music with
a concentration on reggae, hip-hop, and dancehall. Over
the years (since 1991) Konders has produced and remixed
recordings from such diverse artists as Shabba Ranks,
Aswad, Buju Banton, Supercat, Ziggy Marley, Herb Alpert,
and Caron Wheeler (Soul II Soul). Massive B is an
urban based label with roots in Brooklyn, New York and
Kingston, JA. Being based in these communities, it was
a natural breeding ground for reggae hip-hop hits including
the Bounty Killer/ Jeru the Damaja combination, "Suicide
or Murder". Rap sensation Blazhay Blazhay got their
start on Massive B as well under the name "Hostile
Takeover".
The Massive B catalog consists of such
established artists like Half Pint, Ini Kamoze, Nicodemus,
Beenie Man, and Shabba Ranks. However, Massive B
also takes pride as providing a forum and place for young,
previously unsigned, talent getting their first break.
Many successful New York based reggae artists such as
Red Fox , Mad Lion, and Grammy winner, Shaggy have been
voicing for Massive B since early in their career and
continue to do so such as.
