Best of the Best 2010 Spotlight: Mr. Vegas

One of the biggest stars of current urban Jamaican music, Mr. Vegas was among young artists leading the charge in the '90s to take dancehall in a more American-influenced direction. His smash hits fused sparse riddims with plenty of hip-hop swagger and R&B melodic flavor, and his recent synth-heavy singles could blend seamlessly into commercial party-music radio. While he briefly announced a retirement from music in 2008, that came to a relatively quick end, and his latest single, "Gallis/Sassa Step," is fomenting its own dance craze.
