"People can expect a great show and I am working and practising because it's my first one. I want to make it extra special and I want to get the chance to deliver some real new tunes," he said.

"Laing a do a different kind of Sting this year and he has been recruiting some of the real icons. Him sey Beagle bring een Fabulous and the rest is history, we signed the contract already and in fact we a one a first set of people to sign for Sting this year," he said.
Following his return to Jamaica Super Beagle has been creating new music and performing at several events in the Portmore area.
The icon was reintroduced into the Jamaican spotlight in 2012, after his single Dust A Soundboy was sampled by Kanye West for his double platinum certified single Mercy.
"Kanye West has helped me to comeback in a great way because he helped me to secure some wealth while I take care of my health. Everything good man, that was a blessing that was long coming. The music business is not an overnight thing, you have to put in the work and then yu collect. So Kanye West's sample helped to me secure some change and it nah stop because some people in the world still nuh get it yet ... a double platinum sell enuh," Super Beagle laughed.
Mercy also features Pusha T and Big Sean. Kanye West also sampled Dance With Me written and performed by Jamaican artiste/actor Noel 'Rozah Roze' Ellis earlier this year. That effort also climbed the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
