Capleton

King Shango, King David, The Fireman and The Prophet. A wise man once said that a prophet is not without honour save in his own country and so it has been with Capleton. While the veteran DJ's words and works long ago earned him the title of "The Prophet", the respect and honor that should rightfully be his have been a long time coming. "Anytime you try to uplift righteousness and upliftment of the people them, then you ah go get a fight", says the hottest entertainer in the worldwide reggae fraternity.

Now in her 12th year of Djing, she has gone from Skunkrock label rep to a known DJ in her own right. Having frequented gigs in Europe for 10 years, and holding a residency at Berlin’s Icon Club for over 9½ years, she’s still finding new places to present her sound every season.
