Andrew Bees, is a "SoulJah of Love." Unconditionally living a "Real Life" fighting for May 17, 1972 in the notorious Waterhouse District, Andrew was exposed and influenced by the best Reggae, R & B, and soul singers Jamaica had to offer.

In 1986 at the age of 14, Andrew became a regular performer on the popular "Colgate Cavity Fighters Club" program on Radio Jamaica — R.J.R. Andrew's tenure on R.J.R exposed his talents to reggae greats Augustus Pablo, Half Pint, Hugh Mundell, King Everald, and Wayne "Sleng Teng" Smith, who invited him to join them on their respective stage shows.

In 1989/1990, Andrew recorded his first songs "Life In The Ghetto," "Struggle and Strive," and "Be Cool" on Castro Brown's New Name Music Productions label.

In 1993 Andrew was invited to perform on Bunny Wailer's 100 Artist "Ghetto Bash Concert" at the Jam World Entertainment Center in Jamaica. The following year, Andrew collaborated with Fitzroy Francis on the single "Things A Gwan, Things A Go Dun,". That, in turn, led to the production of his first solo studio album Militant, which was eventually released in 1995 on R.A.S Records in the United States and on Sony Records in Japan.
