New York based record producing giant, Johnny Wonder has been busy executing all elements of a current production timeline, set for the shooting of Volume II of his famed Dancehall Draft Picks DVD series.
With more than 20 years experience in the dancehall business Wonder initiated the Dancehall Draft Picks series to give an in depth look into the world of dancehall.
Equipped with his camera and vivid imagination Wonder is in Jamaica to capture what is commonly thought of as the mystifying dancehall underground.
Dancehall Draft Picks Volume I was an immense success that saw Wonder move more than 10,000 copies worldwide. That DVD featured stellar dancehall rulers like: Busy Signal, Mavado, Aidonia and Tony Matterhorn.
The DVD series captures the raw deal, as it unfolds on the dancehall scene with engaging interviews and hot performance clips from some of the most popular studios and toughest stage shows. Volume II will mimic the first DVD in the series with video cuts that feature some of the latest hot shot artists in the dancehall.
Wonder projects that this upcoming full length documentary to be released in 2009, will give the viewer a unique perspective of reggae in Jamaica; captured by a lens that tracked some of dancehalls hottest artists through their daily and nightly activities.
Dancehall Draft Picks Volume II will include: Serani, Bugle, Konshens, Stephen "Da Genius" McGregor, Tarrus Riley, Etana, Queen Ifrica, Pamputae, Chino, Andrew and Wadah *lo**, Mad Ras and many more. Mavado, Bounty Killer and other established artists also make appearances, giving their opinions on the current state of Dancehall and the new recruits.
