Elephant Man, also known as The Energy God, (born O'Neil
Bryan on September 11, 1975 in Kingston, Jamaica) is a
dancehall musician.
His stagename stemmed from his large ears, which led to
the nickname Dumbo in his youth. "Ele" started out his
musical career as a member of the Scare Dem Crew, later
continuing as a solo artist. He was later characterized
for several trademarks, such as his yellow-orange hair,
his unique low-key voice and his stage performance, which
included jumping and running, or even climbing on stage
props and monitors. His acoustic trademark is marked by
a light lisp.
The first international recognition came when Elephant Man
and Puma settled a contract for using his single "All Out"
for their Olympics commercial campaign in 2004.
Elephant Man has been criticised for his lyrics calling for
violence against gay people. In 2003 British LBGT group
OutRage! called for the arrest and prosecution of several
dancehall stars including Elephant Man, Bounty Killer and
Beenie Man for violation of hate crimes statutes, however
a record company gag and agreement with gay rights groups
in the U.K. has allowed the him to remain free.
Elephant Man also had a song called "Willie Bounce" that
appeared on several Mixtapes in early 2006. It borrowed
the first few bars from I Will Survive by Gloria Gaynor.
Recently, the Jamaican star has been signed to New York-based
label Bad Boy Records. He will release his Bad Boy debut,
Let's Get Physical on November 6, 2007. The first single is
called "Five-O" and features Wyclef Jean. Another track on
the album will feature Diddy and Busta Rhymes and it was
produced by Cipha Sounds and Solitair.
Most commonly, songs by Elephant Man are found on various
Riddim Driven albums, and he performs on various riddims
like "Diwali", "Coolie Dance", "Stepz", "Bubble Up", and
various others.
