He auditioned at Sonic Sounds studio, but while Sly Dunbar was impressed, his touring commitments with Black Uhuru prevented him from signing Wonder. He had more success, however, with King Tubby, who produced his first single, "Long and Lasting Love", in 1985, with two more following.
His new album Foreva boasts collaborations with world renowned dancehall producers Don Corleone and Tony Kelly (Sean Paul, Elephant Man). It includes the singles Again and For My Love.
Wayne rose to fame in 2003 with the song No Letting Go, which reached number 11 on the Billboard Top 100.
While other dancehall artists are known for their rapping style, Wayne Wonder's claim to fame is his unparalleled, velvety smooth singing voice.
Wayne was born in Buff Bay, Portland, Jamaica, and moved all over eastern Kingston including a stint in Rae Town - home of the weekly Reggae/R oldies street dance which inspired him to take a more soulful approach to dancehall.

Mmmm
Its mariah and free just blaze beats (yeaaa)
Its the rock and mariah and the women go (uhhhhh)
I I love it when the ladies sing (uh huh huh huh)
And they love it when the whistles blow smothered in ring.
Slide up on ya strip and go (uh huh huh huh) just to
Pick up ya sista bro you like the pick and choose
Silly fool she kno that I got her I'll run up on her strip and go (uh huh huh huh)
For mariah I'll play a brotha role I play a different role let her
Roll in a wheel long days goin and go and know what slimmy
Sje just like honey so she got me like winnie the pooh
Long nights let her chill wit the crew only backwards to do and
She know how to roll they say out with the old and in with the new
But she my dream lover so I can't let go heck no please belive me
I never been a liar jus fire Mariah and freeweezy
I get shy around you
Don't know what to say
I don't know what to do
'Cause you do something to me
That I can't describe baby
Always catch myself thinkin' 'bout
The things you do
There ain't no one else
I got my heart set on you
You really got me, baby it's true
You know you got me
So in love
You know you got me
Daydreamin' 'bout us
You know you got me
Starry eyed and elated
You know you got me
Whenever you want me baby
You know you got me
Hypnotized
You know you got me
With you on my mind
You know you got me
Feeling intoxicated
You know you got me
Whenever you want me baby
Boy I'm all tangled up in you these feelins' I just can't
seem to shake,
You got me wrapped up in your love, boy you got me wide awake.
I never knew what love could feel like, but you showed me how,
Now I can't deny this feeling, I'm so glad you're around.
The lyrics of Wayne Wonder's song "You Got Me" are about being infatuated with someone and being completely entranced by their presence.
