Juggy D

 

Born and bred in Southall, Juggy has been performing since the age of 14 when he won a talent competition judged by Punjabi superstar Channi from Allap. Winning the competition inspired Juggy to pursue his dream to become a successful British-born Punjabi singer.  Juggy performed during frequent visits back to his parents’ native India during his late teens and began to establish himself as a genuine British-Born Asian vocal talent.  Having heard his vocals, Rishi Rich asked Juggy to collaborate on the track “Nahin Jeenah” on Rishi’s debut album “Simply Rich”. The track was No 1 in the Bhangra charts for 6 weeks. In 2003, Juggy became part of the Rishi Rich Project – a music movement set up to showcase up-and-coming artists. The critically acclaimed debut single “Dance with you (nachna tere naal)” featuring Jay Sean was released on Virgin Records in Sept 2003.  Since signing to 2Point9, Juggy has also featured on a number of commercial cross-over singles including:• Craig David – Rise and Fall (Rishi rich Desi kulcha remix)• Craig David – Spanish (Rishi rich Desi kulcha remix)• Ricky Martin – Juramento (remix)• Brittney Spears – Me against the music (Rishi rich remix)• Mary J Blige – Love at 1st sight (Rishi rich Desi kulcha remix)• Lamya – black Mona Lisa (tigerstyle remix) Juggy D released his 1st solo album 'Juggy D' in August 2004, and set new records, being the first artist to have a fully-fledged Panjabi album in the UK album charts.
