Meet Jamaican Entertainer Khristopher

Writer : Caribbean E-Magazine on Sunday, October 23, 2011 | 10:20 PM

Born Mark Wayne Williams in the Falmouth Hospital, Trelawny in Jamaica, he was nicknamed "Khris"  by his mother after his distinctive birth date on December 25th. Khristopher enjoyed listening to all genres of music and at a tender age of 12 years old he relocated to Brooklyn, NY where he continued his schooling.



In 1999, Khristopher met Louis "Flabba" Malcolm in the Bronx where he recorded a cover version of the Backstreet Boys hit “I WANT IT THAT WAY” on Flabba’s HEADACHE RIDDIM.  On the heels of that success, Khristopher recorded another cover of a Backstreet Boys' track, this time being that of “ALL I HAVE TO GIVE”, on the HURRICANE RIDDIM.



Khristopher then made a career shift to move back to Jamaica, as he wanted to further pursue his musical career through working with other Jamaican producers, which included Jeremy Harding on "VEX NOW" with Delly Ranx and Louis "Flabba" Malcolm on “WHO’S HOLDING DONNA”, one of Khristopher’s memorable cover. He also worked with Collin "Bulby" York on the MAD INDIAN RIDDIM with a track called "EVERYTIME IT RAINS" in 2006.



He takes pride in his songwriting abilities which includes original works such as “NO WEY NUH BETTAH DAN YAWD” produced by himself and Andre DRETEGS Hawthorne for Fifth Element Records,HEARTBEAT AWAY” also produced by himself, Paul Platinum and DRETEGS, and “DO WHATEVER” which was co-written by DRETEGS and Reggae singer Tony Curtis. French musical duo, Daddy and Hypa of D&H REMIX, did a club remix of "HEARTBEAT AWAY" which featured David Guetta.



Khristopher is now being booked by Lesley Hayles and signed to Fifth Element Records. A video for "DO WHATEVER" was directed by Deus Beni and released in May 2011.
