Robert "Bobby Digital" Dixon (born in Kingston, Jamaica) is an influential reggae and dancehall producer. He began working with King Jammy in Kingston in 1985. He was given his nickname "Bobby Digital" because King Jammy had begun experimenting with digital rhythms at around the same time. Bobby struck out on his own in 1988 and formed the Digital B label. Among the artists with hits on Digital B are Shabba Ranks and Sizzla. Dixon is credited with creating reggaeton's distinctive beat.
