Black Spyda born Fredrick Wright is currently a DANCEHALL/REGGAE producer who is making his name known to dancehall by his works. He hails from humble beginnings in the Old Capital, Spanish Town. During his early years while attending St. Jago High he dreamt of becoming one of Jamaica's greatest cricketer and was the Captain of his high school team. He was also on Jamaica's Under 19 Cricket team but several years after leaving school he found his true calling to be music! He started out as a disc jockey on News Talk 93 FM playing daily for thousands of listeners. In his drive to excel along with natural talent he also began to compose remixes.  From the recognition gained he got the opportunity to spread his wings in Guyana, Brazil, Suriname and St. Martin. While in Guyana, he played on the country's top sound system Slingaz International, as well as on one of Guyana's top radio stations, NCN but he wanted more out of music and came back to Jamaica. On his return he and his uncle started Close Range Sound but unfortunately this did not satisfy his heart.
