Beautiful Surprise by Philip
Philip Scantlebury

defined muscles this walking anomaly has carved a niche for himself in a musical genre not typically known for its West Indian
roots. He is arguably among the best alternative vocalists in Barbados whose raw vocal talent began to bloom over a decade
ago when he began performing with the local RnB acapella group Suave. Here is where the gradual roll out of his vocal range
and versatility began.
