Bio
Chrisinti's way of conveying the raw emotion of a lyric, whether romantic, spiritual, or political has garnered comparisons to iconic artists from Dennis Brown to Sam Cooke to the late great Marvin Gaye.
Today, as reggae enjoys a renaissance of young conscious artists and producers like I-Wayne, Richie Spice, and YahBreeze, Chrisinti is definitely a sign of his times. Heavily influenced by the faith he embraced in 1995, Chrisinti is uncompromising in saying, Rastafari is everything to my music, and through this medium I have gained all my inspiration..
Born Paul Christopher Hudson in a place called Drewsland (a humble neighborhood on the outskirts of Kingston), Chrisinti, as he is now called (a name taken on by himself and given meaning Selassi I Child) had early dreams of becoming a star. Chrisinti participated in school fetes and concerts in his community from the age of 6 right through high school.
After graduation, he began to travel from studio to studio hoping to catch the ear of a producer. His first real opportunity came from Richard Bell who produced his first recording entitled Aware of Drugs for Star Trail Recording Label. Chrisinti was now on his way to realizing his dream. In 2003, Kings of Kings released his debut album entitled Comfort My People. This album featuring the popular cover No More Rain heralded the entrance of a young artiste set to make a difference in reggae music. This well-loved artist released his highly anticipated sophomore CD, Again (Eight76 Records) in June 2005. Again was produced by Chrisinti and Eight76s Kenroy YahBreeze Archibald. The first single Oh Sheila has proven to be his biggest chart success to date, climbing to #2 on the X-News South Florida Reggae Singles chart; reaching the Top Ten on the New York Reggae Singles Chart and the Top Five in Jamaica. The follow-up single and video, Runnings Run, crossed over to adult r&b and blues chart in early 2007. His duet with reggae superstar Nadine Sutherland (Action, Anything For You) entitled Cyan Tek It has reached as high as #2 on the South Florida singles chart and continues to be in rotation on reggae programs all over the world. Currently, Chrisinti is working on a new album to be released in 2008. Meanwhile, upcoming singles from some of reggaes hottest producers continue to keep him in the mix at radio.
This cultural music messenger is poised to take music to the four corners of the world and uplift the minds and hearts of many.
