The Birth Of A Music Sensation

Jaswinder was born at Durgapur, Punjab, India on 1st April 1974. His family immigrated to Vancouver, Canada when Jaswinder was 5 years old. As an adolescent, he was focused and perseverant. He worked at a construction site at a very young age. He was distinctively good at sports too, and he was a star player for his school Ice Hockey team. Jaswinder always had an affinity for music. He often used to sing along with his group of friends at parties and Punjabi functions. Seeing his immense musical talent, his friends encouraged him to take on the music world. A close friend and co-worker lent him 5000 dollars to make a plunge into the music industry. All Jaswinder needed was a little push and the support of his family and friends and he sky-rocketed to success in a short span of time.

How He Became The Prince Of Bhangra

With sheer determination and gifted talent, Jaswinder soon got recognised as Jazzy B when his first album came out in 1993. He had Non- Punjabi-speaking folk dancing and singing to his songs. Soon he tore the music charts and escalated to the top ranks with his refreshing change to Bhangra by incorporating a hip-hop and RnB twist to his songs. He took the best of both the cultures he was exposed to and benefitted by merging them together. He soon turned into a craze for the younger generation and a pride for his Punjabi brethren.

Ever since his debut, he has released 14 albums, all of which have been produced by Sukshinder Shinda, a talented international Bhangra record producer and artist known as ‘The Music Man’. Sukshinder believed in Jaswinder’s potential to be the next Bhangra sensation and has stood by him throughout his career. Having a massive hand that trusted his work constantly on his shoulder, Jaswinder was soon crowned the ‘Prince of Bhangra’ by the music world.
