Currently breaking barriers for Dancehall music, Mavado is slowly entrenching himself in the fabric of North American popular culture. Recently another round of promotion in New York saw Mavado making an appearance at the MTV studios in Times Square, where he recorded an in-depth interview with Rahman Dukes for the station's flagship MTV News slot.

From there it was on to the G-Unit offices, to record an interview for 50 Cent's wildly popular entertainment website thisis50.com. The videotaped interview will premiered on the site this Sunday and will be able available online for an entire week.

With the release of his sophomore album 'Mr Brooks - A Better Tomorrow', on digital format via iTunes exclusively a week prior to the physical CD release, Mavado has once again broke new ground for Dancehall.

Since iTune's inception almost six (6) years ago Bob Marley's timeless "Legend" album, voted the album of the 20th century, has been the number one (#1) selling album on the Reggae section of iTunes.

Today that changed for the first time ever, as Mavado took the top spot with his 'Mr Brooks' album, released yesterday. With a hectic promotional schedule set for its physical release next week, including in-store signings and an appearance on HOT 97's Angie Martinez show, Mr Brooks certainly looks set to continue the huge strides he has made since bursting on to the scene three (3) years ago.
