The year 2009 was very good one for reggae artist extraordinaire Richie Spice as the prolific singer and songwriter continued in his usual hit making form; last year he scored several hit singles that topped reggae charts world wide such as Street Life, King and Queen and More Life. He was also very busy performing all over the world. His hectic international schedule saw him touring the USA, Europe and Australia. He also did several shows in Bermuda and throughout the Caribbean in countries such as Trinidad, Surinam, Guyana, Dominica, French Guiana, the Bahamas (Abaco, Freeport and Nassau) and Barbados.

Richie Spice closed out 2009 in fine style with a spectacular performance at the recently held Original Dancehall Jam Jam showcase which was held at the Jamalco Sports Club in Halse Halle, Clarendon on December 31st. The following night he began the new year on a high note with an equally impressive performance at the Trelawny Family Fun Day, which was held at the Trelawny Multipurpose Sports Complex.

Richie Spice is expecting even more success this year as he will be releasing his fifth official album early this year. He is also slated to do a six weeks tour of Europe and the UK which will begin in February. Throughout the year he will also be touring the Caribbean in an unconventional way as far as tours are concerned as he will only be doing weekend events across Caribbean. He is very keen on doing these dates in the Caribbean as they are a part of an unofficial Caribbean tour that he embarked on a year ago. It is his intension to perform in every country in the Caribbean country before the end of the year as he wants to connect with all his fans across the English speaking Caribbean and French and Dutch Antilles.

Richie’s next big local performance will be at the prestigious Pepsi Rebel Salute event. It is widely known that for many years he has been one of the favorite acts of patrons who travel from all corners of the earth to witness this event annually. Therefore he is planning an extra special performance for the patrons who will be attending this year’s staging of Rebel Salute.
