Given the blazing speed of his flow, you may only catch every fourth word of Animal Man's dancehall hit 'Gal Dem Predator', but this new artist is quickly turning his unique adrenaline-charged flow into a hot global commodity. |

The first time Animal Man held a microphone was when he was thirteen-years-old, after listening to creation sound tapes and dancehall artists like Papa San, Super Cat, Lt Stitchie and many more. However Animal Man's dancehall journey did not begin in Jamaica but in London, England where he was born. It was here that he developed his musical tastes and interests. Animal Man's music would correctly be categorized as dancehall music. Experimenting with tongue rolling and word play on dancehall instruments and on many more instruments led to the development of the unique style and flow he has today. As his confidence grew and his style developed, he soon saw a loyal following begin to grow and he became a popular local hit. Animal Man's debut single‘Gal Dem Predator' and second single 'This Is England' became radio hits and have propelled him into the spotlight.
