Eek-A-Mouse
Real Name: Ripton Joseph Hylton
Profile:
Ripton Joseph Hylton, 19 November 1957, Kingston, Jamaica, West Indies. It is not only Eek-A-Mouse’s 6 feet 6 inches height that make him one of Jamaica’s most individual talents. Hylton’s unusual name was originally that of a racehorse upon which he frequently lost money; when the horse finally won a race, he had, of course, refused to back it. ‘My Father’s Land’ and ‘Creation’, his first two releases, came out under his real name in the mid-70s. In 1980, he started recording with Joe Gibbs after working briefly with the Papa Roots, Black Ark, Gemini, Jah Life, Black Scorpio and Virgo sound systems. By 1981, he had teamed up with producer and Volcano sound owner Henry ‘Junjo’ Lawes and had achieved significant hits with ‘Once A Virgin’, ‘Modelling Queen’ and ‘Virgin Girl’. Between 1980 and 1984, Lawes and Linval Thompson used the Roots Radics at Channel One with Scientist mixing, to help record a number of hit albums and singles by the DJ. In 1981, after the release of his first widely available album Wa Do Dem, Eek-A-Mouse was the surprise star of Reggae Sunsplash. ‘Ganja Smuggling’, ‘For Hire And Removal’ and ‘Do You Remember’ and the album Skidip! (1982) sustained his high profile. The singles ‘Terrorists In The City’, ‘Anarexol’ and ‘Operation Eradication’ (a response to his friend Errol Scorcher’s death) followed, along with Mouse And Man and Assassinator (both 1983) and several appearances on live dancehall albums. Nevertheless, it was not long before his characteristic ‘biddy biddy bengs’ started to wear thin and his popularity diminished somewhat after 1984’s Mouseketeer, the last of his albums with Lawes. Surprisingly, though, he began to pick up a following with indie and rock fans in Europe, which helped sustain his career for the rest of the decade.
Eek-A-Mouse made something of a comeback with 1991’s major label release U-Neek, which included tracks produced by Gussie Clarke, Daddy-O and Matt Robinson, and a cover version of Led Zeppelin’s reggae pastiche ‘D’yer Mak’er’. He also made a cameo appearance in the movie, New Jack City and recorded for Wild Apache and former Channel One engineer, Soljie. Following his brief exposure on a major label, Eek-A-Mouse returned to cult obscurity on a series of independent releases including 1996’s Black Cowboy and 2004’s Mouse Gone Wild.

I salute Eek A Mouse from Ghana-Africa.
I'm born in Philadelphia...I have no ties to Jamacia or Rasta that I'm aware of. I found eek a mouse on a whim a month ago. It's all I've been listening too...He's a treasure
Killer music. Im nearly 50 but been listening since age 15 or 16
You know great music when you hear it!👊🏿🎼🎼🎼💨💨💨
I’m 38 and found him very randomly around age 15-16. I think one of his cd’s was left behind in a car my buddy bought. Well 20+ years later I’m still bangin Ganja Smuggling
I swear in every video of ekk a mouse playing wa do dem the band is smiling; you just can't help with the vibe.
I did not remember how unique Eek-A-Mouse was real Reggae legend.
No bullshit this dude was on another level of reggae
Ee9Eeeeéeeeeeéééueeee eeeéeeeeeéééueeee

Everybody talkin about mouse but nobody's giving credit to the band for keeping up to a powerhouse.
Sagitarious band
I remember when I was a kid, maybe 8 or 9yrs old my dad recorded this on VHS in 1982 "Reggae Sunsplash" - I used to rewind and playback "For removal & hire" at least 100 times, I wore the tape out. Big tune a dat!! Neutron bomb a next tune me feel yah noh...Good times still!😎
I was 18 , been jamming every since 👊🏿🎼🎼🎼💨💨💨
Incredible Band Sagittarius Eenk a Mouse is a Different kind of entertainer A singer you will never get tired of listening Excellent and Most Handsome
Listened to Ganja Smuggling as a kid, now im coming back and rediscovering all his music at 23, love you eek a mouse!! youre a legend big up from California
Same brother!! 23 as well.
The tallest mouse in the house is the essence of rhythmic hypnotic sound . In a class by himself is undeniable...🔥🔥
The most unique reggae artist in history! Mark my words ;)
Raw! Straight Culture . I understand that young people will always freak new styles and older folks won’t understand the flow or want for the old days when they were young. But I hope your day young ppl in JA will resurrect these dub styles and get off the violence and vanity of the current expression of reggae and dancehall music.
May your hopes be heard brother, big up to everyone who still rocks proper dub music inna di speakers, always respecting this culture 🇯🇲
Very well put sir
He'll definitely go down in history! I can't believe how strong he's goin somnay years later
Minni minni ming Ming ding bong Ming. Simplistic but complex at the same time. His lyrics, his delivery, and the message in the song, so much is going on simultaneously that’s why no one even tries to mimic his style.
creativity,,,talent talent. They cant touch you...you got it Eek A Mouse.
Salute straight from Sierra Leone in Africa 🇸🇱
Original style hard to copy…..game changer 💚💛❤️
Yow mouse can revive reggae originally

The Sagittarius Band, with the legend Derrick Barnett on bass!
I must admit this was not one of the best performances by the Sagittarius band I’ve come across.
the style and swagger is just dripping off him! what and awesome moment captured on tape!! a fascinating genre and era
i was 17 the first time I heard Eek-A-Mouse. I was in a friend's s-10 with two 12'' subs in the back... that was standard in our neighborhood... He played Assassinator and it changed my life... 15 years later i've dug through the rabbit holes of rub-a-dub and dancehall... and I thank my old homie for exposing me to the sound.
We’re you in Michigan?
Eeka mouse is a legend and he's unique. Big up yourself.
I had a fella who use to patrol with me who did an awesome Eek impersonation. Bless his soul, he made it bearable.
