Blak Ryno

His rise was tied closely to the Kartel camp, where he became associated with the label Adidjaheim Records and developed a profile as one of the crew’s more prominent younger talents. That period also helped spread his name beyond Jamaica, with performances and appearances that carried the Portmore Empire brand into overseas dancehall circuits. After leaving the group around 2010, he began recording under the name Ryno Di Stinger and continued carving out a solo path, balancing tougher dancehall cuts with more melodic material.

Even after stepping away from the Portmore Empire, Blak Ryno has stayed active enough to remain part of the conversation around modern dancehall. Later releases and renewed attention around tracks like “Feel The Vibes” and newer songs on independent production have shown that his voice still fits comfortably in the current scene. He is not an artist who has relied on constant volume; instead, his catalogue reflects a career built on recognisable phrasing, a clipped flow, and a style that made an impact during a particularly competitive era in Jamaican music.
