Artist Profile

Eek‐A‐Mouse

Ripton Joseph Hylton, known artistically as Eek-A-Mouse, is a Jamaican reggae musician. He is one of the earliest artists to be described as a singjay. He is known for pioneering his own style of scatting, differing from the-then toasting deejays in the 1980s. Apart from his distinctive vocal style, Eek-A-Mouse has been noted for often wearing flashy and eccentric costumes during his performances. In a 1985 interview, he explained: 'Entertaining is not just singing and rapping to audiences. People want to see you in costume and dancing.'
