May 30,
1969), is one of Jamaica's most famous
Deejays. He began his career around
1991.Once known to his friends as Spaghetti (tall and slim) but later shortened to Spragga. The Benz in his name comes from the sound system for which he used to work for, L.a. Benz, and it is through this that he found his way into the music business at a
Dubplate recording session with
Buju Banton. The famed elder DJ was slated to do 4 tracks for L.a. Benz but only
voiced two and suggested that Spragga do the other two. Since he was new to recording, he
freestlyed a couple of lines of what would then beome
Love Mi Gun, a popular tune.
