Biography
His stagename stemmed from his large ears, which led to the nickname Dumbo in his youth. “Ele” started out his musical career as a member of the Scare Dem Crew, later continuing as a solo artist. He was later characterized for several trademarks, such as his yellow-orange hair, his unique low-key voice, or his stage performance, which included excessive jumping and running, or even climbing on stage props and monitors. His acoustic trademark is marked by a light lisp.
The first international recognition came when Elephant Man and Puma settled a contract for using his single “All Out” for their Olympics commercial campaign in 2004.
Elephant Man has been widely criticised for his lyrics calling for violence against gay people. In 2003 British LBGT group OutRage! called for the arrest and prosecution of several dancehall stars including Elephant Man, Bounty Killer and Beenie Man for violation of hate crimes statutes [1]
Elephant Man also had a song called “Willie Bounce” that appeared on several Mixtapes in early 2006. It borrowed the first few bars from I Will Survive by Gloria Gaynor.
Recently, the Jamaican star has been signed to New York-based label Bad Boy Entertainment.

So glad there is so many people that I've voiced their opinion against this artist. No more homophobic lyrics, specially the violent lyrics produced by these kind of artists. They are brainwashing a whole generation of caribbean people with hatered. Visist my website on the subject Murder Inna Dancehall www.soulrebels.org/dancehall.htm

Haha :D Why are there always idiots discussing about homophobic texts, whenever i visit the page of a famous dancehall artist?? Come down, everybody. This is just MUSIC. Party, Culture, Havin' fun. I'm AGAINST homophobia, but first look at your own culture before you attack others! Peace
