Lyttle, meanwhile, with his smash single Turn Me On, soared to No. 2 on the British charts and stayed in the top ten for seven weeks. His single was also No. 1 in Denmark for ten weeks and made waves in the United States.
“I have been working very hard and trying my best to keep an international focus with my music. I believe in what I am doing, and the Caribbean will always be a part of me and my music,” he was quoted as saying.
Rupert âRupeeâ Clarke, who rocked dancehalls and clubs around the world with his recent hits like Tempted To Touch, What Happens In The Party and Hands, has called his Sunshine Awards nomination “a blessing”.
“It’s an honour to be a part of such a prestigious event that certainly uplifts and helps Caribbean music on so many levels,” he said. (Barbados Nation Newspaper)
