Joggo

“Joggo” born as Jurgen Orville Seedorf on october the 29th 1980 in Amsterdam, introduced himself to the reggae audience in 2008 after the release off the mixtape “Beware”.

The song “Beware”on Bobby Konders “Kingdom riddim” had a huge international impact and peaked at the #2 position in the official German reggae charts for weeks.

With performances on big festivals like: Summerjam and Reggaejam, Joggo also proved to be an excellent live performer witch resulted in holding crowds busy from beginning till the end.
After releasing several singles on riddims of internationally well known producers such as: Curtis Lynch, Jr Blender and many more, Joggo also got recognition in Hawaii where the single “Peace and Love” turned out to be an instant hit tune.

Besides football, music has always been Joggo’s biggest passion. At the age of 10 he entered the Ajax Football Academy he stayed there untill he was 17, then Joggo left Ajax to join Real Madrid in Spain, he stayed there for one year before he returned back to Holland to play for Dutch first divison teams. Since 2011 he decided to stop playing football and to choose for his first love “music”.
Growing up with all kind of musical influences, reggae always had a special place in his heart.
This because of the positive and conscience messages brought into the music. His biggest inspiration to start singing reggae was like a whole lot of people: Bob Marley but also legends like Burning Spear, Steel Pulse and many more.

In June 2011 Dredda Records released Joggo’s first official album called Modern Rockers Vol.1, this album contains hit songs like Peace and Love, DJ, Gun Down and Strong Black Woman. Also on this album the wellknown Turbulence The Future appears in a Featuring with Joggo and Jah Decko with a big tune “Strong like Lion”!!

In 2012 Joggo is back on a roll with his track “Private Performer” which he released in collaboration with Black Star Foundation. Mid 2013 Joggo will release a new album with strictly conscious tunes.
