Dancehall Got Talent First Round of Auditions Kicks off to Rave Success & Meet The Judges
New York, U.S.A (MPR Consulting) - Reeling from the overwhelming success of the first taping of Dancehall Got Talent, the organizers are gearing up for the final auditions process of this unprecedented televised dancehall competition.
Hosted by media queen the Diva Nikki Z, the judges dancehall star Timberlee, reggae legend “Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door” Ed Robinson and fashion maven and entrepreneur Dougie Platinum were on hand to give their honest, constructive criticism and expertise to the budding artists.
Judge and fashion Maven Dougie Platinum stated "It was great to see the talent displayed at the NYC auditions. Quite a few Contestants came out on their "A"game with the hopes of securing a YES from the judges. The diversity in performances only has me on the edge of my seat waiting on what to expect next in the later auditions and rounds."
"I was impressed to see the passion the contestants had for their journey. Many of the contestants displayed a passion and love for dancehall that at times it's like you just didn't want to say "NO". They were prepared for the most part, and I was quite impressed that many contestants came out with originality in their song choice, instead of singing already released songs."
Executive producer LA Wright echoed the sentiments "A lot of great talent was in attendance, the female talent was a lot more heavy than expected, it was a pleasant surprise. We can't reveal too much but I'd like to tell everyone to make sure to tune in when the show airs. It is a MUST see!"
Each live show broadcast of Dancehall Got Talent will welcome various dancehall, reggae and hip hop celebrities. To the delight of audience and hopeful artists, the first audition welcomed dancehall star Spice and Agent Sasco aka Assassin.

Meet Dancehall Got Talent Judges!
Born Timberlee Heaven, this Gemini princess grew up in the cool parish of Mandeville where she spent much of her free time pumping gas at her father's gas station.
Although Timberlee indulged in modern contemporary dancing and playing the piano, the closest she thought she would come to being an entertainer, was when her high school class at Bel-Air High, voted her most likely to be in the limelight. In 2003 she, by chance, recorded her first single Prada Gucci (Independent Gal) on Don Corleon's Trifecta riddim. Even then, while still in school, Timberlee had her hopes of becoming a veterinarian or a chef; certainly not an entertainer.
An encounter with Ed Robinson is an encounter with one of Reggae music’s most consistently great contributors. Throughout the course of his over twenty year career Mr. Robinson has blessed the music industry with his talent both before the mic and behind the scenes.
Having started his career as the drummer in a school band, Ed Robinson gave hints of his versatility from the very beginning. Over the years he found himself becoming a key player in the diverse genres of Reggae, Rock, Hip Hop, and R & B. His tremendous production talent has found him at work with industry greats. While constantly at work in the studio, Robinson still found time to perform in such great stage shows as Reggae Carifest, Irie Jamboree and Sunsplash. It was during a performance at Sunsplash concert that he caught the attention of MCA Records. Continue reading here..
