Eek A Mouse

Eek-a-Mouse (born Ripton Hilton November 19, 1957 in Kingston, Jamaica) is one of Jamaica's premier reggae stars. He is responsible for the creation of the reggae sub-genre singjaying. He is still reputed to perform more than 200 shows in a year in America, The Netherlands, Germany, the UK and the West Indies.

Born in Kingston, Jamaica as Ripton Hilton, Eek-a-Mouse began his foray into reggae music when he was in college, but did not begin to garner a substantial audience until 1979 with his hit "Once a Virgin". That same year, he changed his singing name to "Eek-a-Mouse", the name of the racehorse he always bet on. In 1981, he cheered up the Reggae Sunsplash Festival, which was still mourning over the death of reggae icon Bob Marley. After this, his fame continued increasing through the years 1982 until 1988. "Eek-A-Nomics", his last full-length CD was released in 1996. He, by his own admission in his song "schizophrenic", suffers from some level of schizophrenia.

Eek-a-Mouse is a regular at the Jamaican music festival Reggae Sunsplash and often teams up with reggae duo Michigan and Smiley. He has also been featured on Christian rock group P.O.D.'s (Payable on Death) album Satellite, lending his vocals to the rock-reggae track "Ridiculous".

He also has a scene-stealing performance in the 1991 gangster movie New Jack City which also stars Wesley Snipes, playing a drug-dealing Rastafarian, Fat Smitty, who comes to a shockingly grisly end.
