Bio of JET
Dwight "Jet" Oliver was born in Allman Town, Jamaica and nurtured a keen interest in music from his childhood days listening to the sounds of authentic reggae blazing like the ever present scorching sunshine in the Woodford Park community in Kingston, where his family later relocated. He immigrated with his family to the United States at age 12 and benefited from the fusion of reggae music and hip-hop, which soon permeated the party scene.
Jet, consistently looked for an outlet for his musical inclinations, while attending high school in New York City. He wrote songs, fiddled with instruments and sought out the underlying meanings in songs produced by Reggae Ambassadors, Bob Marley, Jimmy Cliff and the exciting group Third World, which always left him energized and more determined to make his musical mark. "I started doing music with a band called Rockers United," he says with a boyish laugh. During his college years at Florida Institute of Technology, in Melbourne, Florida, where he earned an undergraduate degree in Aviation Management/Flight Technology, he would play reggae music every Sunday from 12:00-3:00 on WFIT, showcasing a versatility that inspired awe and respect.
"Music is the calander by which I live my life," he explains. "It has always been the road map of my life that I can use to pinpoint what happened at various stages of my journey. I've alawys had a passion to create music because I know that I have a lot to say that people would like to hear."
Jet released his debut CD "Reggae On A Cool Vibe," in 1999 and is currently riding the crest of a succesful wave with his follow up "Hanging Wid Da JETsetterz", which was released in the Spring of 2003 on the UpFlite Music label. With his playful number "Hip Hop Bounce", appearing on the steamy compilation CD "Crazy Crazy Crazy", which also boasts reggae icon Half Pint, Jet has no intention of slowing down. "Reggae has come full circle with hip hop and for that I'm glad," he says.
