Taio Cruz – “Dynamite” (Music Video). Taio Cruz is a British singer songwriter and music producer. Writing songs for other artists including Justin Timberlake, Britney Spears, and Pussycat Dolls, he released his debut album Departure. Written, arranged and produced by himself, it achieved initial success in the UK and earned him a MOBO Award nomination. In October 2009, he released his follow up album Rokstarr in the UK. It included his UK and US No. 1 single “Break Your Heart” (his US debut single).
From Carole King to Timbaland, and Pharrell Williams to Smokey Robinson, there’s a great tradition of r’n'b songwriters and producers stepping out of the shadows to become stars in their own right. A new name is about to be added to that illustrious list, as a joint venture between Universal Records in the UK and Motown in the US presents Taio Cruz. Twitter: @TaioCruz
