Kedon Whyte, more popularly known as Hitmaker hails from Kingston Jamaica, where he started his dj career at the age of 16. His style, lyrics and flows can be identified with the likes of the new era dj’s such as Aidonia, Busy Signal, Vybz Kartel, Movado and many more artists who are often described as the sons of Bounty Killa, the generation educated with lyrics of the warlord..

When not in the studio or busy with music, Hitmaker is either hustling to get through day by day, or writing more songs. He puts in a lot of work in the music an he is still working hard to do a lot more. He has recently finished his pro tools studio and he is also a qualified studio engineer. He has worked with a lot of well known “top”acts in the reggae/dancehall industry.

He grew up in the Hughenden area of St. Andrew where he attended Clan Clarthy Primary school before moving on to Donald Quarrie High school. He did a one year crash course on the performing arts at the Exced Community College. After leaving college, he recorded ‘Cock Up Is a Ten’ for the UIM/Digital One label for Richard Roache. However, it was not until he did ‘Pray For Dem’ in March on his own Hitmaker Muzik Label that producers and radio disc jocks began to sit up and pay attention.

Rohan Perry from Rohan Perry Publicity and Booking has taken over his PR and Booking, also with the development side of his career and right now and his future is so bright, he’s got to wear
shades.

“My first love is recording and being an artiste. I am a fan of music, so I know what people like, so I try to make music that I like
and people around me can relate to, so I focus on getting the right
melody and mix of lyrics out there to please them,” he said.

Hitmaker is also a talented engineer and has a song with Konshens on
one of his rhythms which appears on his Hitmaker Muzik Label. He is working with the his own label right now to get his voice out there.

In 2004, he also had a video in rotation on RETV, Hype TV, and Music called ‘Cock up is a ten’. Recently he is working on his own Mix CD and voicing for various producers, which is creating a buzz a yard and abroad. Also he is making his appearance on various underground Mix Cd’s and his tunes are getting exposure on local radio and television stations..

He has his two singles ‘Pray For Me’ & ‘Nuh Fren”,that have seem to pushed his career in 2009 and is back again with his latest single “Tell Yuh Bout Life” which is getting heavy rotation on some of the top radio stations in the island….2010 seems to be his year to shine….

..so through his self-resilience and determination he is working on making himself a success….so…
