UZIMON is a Dancehall Reggae artist originally from Bermuda. He is probably best known internationally for his song "Steven Seagal 2.0", which was featured on the front page of Pirate Bay for an extended period, garnering the video viral status.

UZIMON began as a comedic act in 2007, but evolved into more of a serious stage act with a full live band, known for its dedication to the authentic reggae sound, and theatrical stage antics, making a name for himself in New York City, where he currently resides.[1] Most recently UZIMON headlined the Lion's Den Mainstage at Boomtown Fair,[2] one of the biggest festivals in Europe, along other acts such as The Wailers, Chronixx, Shaggy, and Easy Star Allstars. He has also shared the bill with such artists as Ziggy Marley, Maxi Priest, Beres Hammond, Collie Buddz,[3] The Slackers, Langhorne Slim, and Hollie Cook.

In 2013 he signed with the UK's Boom Artist's Agency, and is also a regular special guest crowd favorite at Webster Hall's now-famous weekly party, BASSment Saturdays.[4] He has also been involved in acting, receiving a part in the NBC's crime series Law and Order - Special Victims Unit [5]
