MC DT
Known world-wide for his famous hook, ‘We’re loving it, loving it, loving it®’ award winning MC DT is one of the UK Garage scenes pioneers. Exploiting his vocal talent from the tender age of 7, when he used to grab the mic at events such as Notting Hill Carnival and a selection of private and family functions (accompanied by his mum!)
MC DT cites his inspirations as reggae stars such like Yellowman, Professor Nuts and Ninjaman. As MC DT got older he set up a sound system called Leo International with some of his secondary school friends. Such was his popularity he was soon enticed over to a more established sound system called Stereo Mellow, where he applied his skill to reggae, soul and Hip Hop events all over the country. MC DT still does Carnival every year without fail. His second to none reputation also won him guest slots with major players including Saxon Sound, Coxson, Volcano and King Tubby’s who were resident at all major Carnival and festival events. By the early nineties MC DT’s notoriety earned him a slot on one of the main pirate stations of the time, Eruption 101.3FM, which was strictly Jungle, the sound of the moment, and was to meet drum and bass legends like Brian G, Groove Rider, Ash Attack, Jumping Jack Frost, Navigator, Skibadee, Shabba D, Moose. Major promoters including Roast, Thunder and Joy and London Sumting were falling over themselves trying to book this new blood and MC DT became a very busy man. He has been inundated with requests to feature on various tracks – the most successful of which is the massive club tune ‘Do You Really Like It?’ in which he was responsible for the famous line, ‘We’re Loving it, Loving it, Loving it®’ This record went straight to number one in the charts.
