Mikey Spice is a Jamaican reggae singer.

Born in Kingston, Jamaica, in 1965, Mikey Spice began singing in his father's church at age seven. He then became a dazzling multi-instrumentalist, learning guitar, bass, drums, trumpet, piano, saxophone, flute, harp and clarinet before age 13. Seven years later, he decided on a reggae career. After working with several bands, Spice (whose voice has been compared to Lou Rawls) began recording in 1991. A successful live date at 1993's Reggae Sunsplash sparked his Ras Records debut, Happiness (1995), followed the next year by Born Again. Jah Lifted Me appeared in 1997. Harder Than Before was issued in early 2001. ~ John Bush, All Music Guide With the chart success of "Born Again" following his summertime hit, "Practice What You Preach", Mikey Spice has proven that his distinctive musical flavor is certain to remain with us for many moons. As a singer/songwriter/musician (proficient in 22 instruments), Mikey Spice is the embodiment of that rare musical phenomenon traditionally referred to as the "one man band".

Blessed with a uniquely broad, rich and resonant voice, Mikey was raised on the rousing spiritual music of the Church of God, in Kingston, Jamaica, where his father served as bishop. As a youth, Mikey picked up musical instruments the way other children picked up toys, and learned to play them one at a time. Inspired also by international singers such as Lou Rawls, Barry White and Teddy Prendergrast, Mikey took up residency on Jamaica's north coast in 1984, and quickly established himself as a leading vocalist and guitarist for many of the bands on the cabaret circuit. The late '80s also found Mikey Spice making a name for himself as a studio musician and harmony singer for many of Jamaica's leading artistes, including Gregory Issacs, Dennis Brown, Toots Hibbert, Freddie McGregor, Frankie Paul and Tiger. In early part of 1991, Mikey teamed up with engineer/producer Barry O'Hare at Grove Music Studios in Ocho Rios, and began recording his own compositions. In Jamaica, Mikey continued performing and producing tracks with other artistes, including Jack Radics, Capleton and Garnet Silk, with whom he recorded "Mama". In 1993 he performed with Gregory Issacs and other artistes at Jamaica's annual Reggae Sunsplash and he roused a notoriously discriminating audience with his solo act at Sting '93.
