At 10-years old, singing sensation QQ (Kareem Dawkins) set a record as the youngest person in Jamaica to have a hit song, 'Poverty'.

Apart from being an anthem in the dancehalls, 'Poverty' has been climbing the charts and dominating the airwaves in both Jamaica and England with its food-for-thought lyrics.

The late Crown Prince of Reggae, Dennis Brown, held this previous title as the youngest Jamaican with a hit song, with his big hit 'No Man Is A Island' at the age of 11.

Now, QQ has been creating quite an impact on the reggae/dancehall scene since he hit Jamaica last May with the single 'Never Know The Use Of Her'. Since then he has been dropping some hot tunes, including 'Mama' and 'Better Must Come'.

One of his more recent tunes, 'Stukie', is making the rounds and in heavy rotation on the airwaves.

QQ continues to be a favourite on the stage show circuit.

The young sensation, who was born on March 9, 1994 and loves to eat Ackee or Oxtail and rice and peas says, "apart from my dad and grandparents help, these are a few artists that influenced me: Michael Jackson, Celine Dion, Beres Hammond, Bob Marley and Jah cure."
