Don't Call It a Comeback: Tony 'CD' Kelly






It seems like all the greats are making their presence known again. Starting out in the 80s as an engineer Tony 'CD' Kelly became one of the great Jamaican producers and is known for top riddims in the 90s such as the Bookshelf,  and Buy Out to name a few.  Kelly is touted as the producer with the most crossover hits, bringing artistes like Sean Paul, Wayne Wonder, Shabba Ranks, Mad Cobra and more to the mainstream.  He wrote and produced Sean Paul's "Deport Dem", TOK's "Money To Burn" and Mr Easy's "She Drives Me Crazy". Recently Kelly has been producing gospel with greats like Bebe & Cece Winan, as well as Jamaican artistes like Chevelle Franklin, Crissy D and more.  Kelly is also back on the scene producing the popular chart-topping hit "For Your Eyes Only" featuring Shaggy and Alaine.  Kelly is working on future projects with Shaggy as well as the production of riddims to be released later this year.
