Biography[edit]
Macka Diamond also known as Charmaine Munroe, Lady Cham, Lady Mackerel, and the Money Goddess, was born in Kingston and raised in Portmore. She has been rocking dancehall charts recently with her musical talent and delivering a strong message to the world. She was influenced by her father, Phillip Munroe, a reggae producer, and was surrounded by music and made up her mind to become a female deejay in her childhood. Rather than using her father’s connection to get her foot in the door to be a singer, she decided to do it alone producing herself. She was influenced by female artists such as Mama Nancy, Lady Ann, Lady Junie and Lady G, who was big at that time. With Junie’s help, she could get the chance to record ‘Don Girl’. After a string of singles, including collaborations with Captain Barkey and Wickerman, she had finally outgrown her Lady Mackerel epithet, changing her name to Macka Diamond with her 2003 single ‘Tek Con’, a protest record to Vybz Kartel’s chauvinistic track ‘Tek Buddy’.

Not only reggae lovers, “It’s Time”, “Just Deny”, “We’ve Got The Formula” and “Settling Down”, these plaintive love songs in the album are attractive to soul aficionados as well. As he told Sunday Observer's interview, he took more than 3 years to produce "Time".[2]
Bunny Rugs has been nominated 10 times for the Grammy Awards as a member of Third World and received numerous awards, such as “New York City Ambassador Award” in November 2009, “United Nations Peace Medal”, and “Jamaica Music Industry Awards for Best Show Band” in 1992 and 1996.
