DEVIN DI DAKTA

BIOGRAPHY

 Born Anthony Escoffery Clarke, in St Mary Jamaica, Devin Di Dakta first intended to be a pediatrician but so deep is his passion for music he has made it his life. Music tugged at his heartstrings and he could not resist.


The move paid dividends in 2015 when he became a household name in Jamaica. Devin struck GOLD when he auditioned for a popular Jamaican talent show known as "Magnum Kings & Queens of Dancehall". He stood out from the other contestants with his lyrical style and unique sound. King Devin was just 19 years old. Three years earlier, Devin had won the Tastee Talent Trail Competition at just 16 years old.


He began to further his development by collaborating with musical legends Sly & Robbie, who produced his debut EP Reggae For Her with singer J.L, which was released in September 2016. On December 6, 2016, Devin was nominated for the Grammy Awards in the Best Reggae Album category. This honor earned him the distinction of becoming the youngest Dancehall nominee since the award's inception in 1985.


Following his Grammy Nomination, Devin Di Dakta hit the Billboard Hot Rock Songs Chart with a song called Oh Devil he was featured 

by Los Angeles-based Band called Electric Guest. The song entered the chart at # 47 (Peaking at #45) and has to date garnered over 50 million streams across streaming platforms (still counting).


During all this success, Devin began online schooling where he completed various courses on the Business Of Music. This knowledge led him to create his own Record Label, SAINTkingstonMUSIC, through which he has independently released several projects like BARE THOUGHTS, BARE MEDS, and his chart-topping EPs, FRESHMAN & SOPHOMORE.  


While Devin continues to grow musically, he not only derives inspiration from fellow Jamaican musicians, but he also admires the sounds from international genres, some of which he merges to develop his style.
