The music Cameo produces varies from 2-step vocals, to 4x4, to grime, and sublow.

Cameo also received two back to back awards on behalf of Uptown Records, winner of best record shop.

Biography

DJ Cameo began his DJing career in 1997 playing in local bars and clubs in West London. His main influences at that time were Tuff Jam, EZ and the Dreem Teem. In March 1999, Cameo landed a set on London's 92.5 Taste FM alongside MCs Mr. Kaos and Double G, together collectively known as The Specialist Crew and later Special Edition. In their weekly 4pm–6pm Sunday show, they were amongst the early pioneers of a changing scene and introduced the concept of 'radio raving' with 2 MCs effectively 'bringing a rave into your living room'. This allowed Cameo to be heard on the UK underground music scene and to gain experience in working on a radio station. With success on Taste FM, Cameo also featured on other pirate stations such as Delight FM, Ice FM and Lush FM.

Goodbye, sweet love of my life,
Losing you cuts as deep as a knife.
I know I did ya wrong, and things weren't right.
But I loved ya girl, more than life.
[More than life]
Ya sha na hold,
Honeta a na a na hata hold,
Ocha ba na ba na nesa hold,
Oh no your opeybol na cha nold,
Yo ve pereta early a ta sha na hold,
So mal te val ta a la so va had.
Wa som se kila viva earth a ves fine,
De fees inga fe com so blue cuan,
Cope ay oh ga te inglos a she neng hold,
A vote sa ning a ing a on a stove,
Oh ka king ya earth a naf a hold,
Oh yas all that a las omspafan,
Ja inga ja stova on gold.

Ddddd do you like it?
How bout this one?
Ddddd do you like it?
How bout this one?
There's a place in the night,
No one knows where I hide.
Say my fancies are fine,
It's a castle in the sky.
I'm so worried I would pass,
By the lands I laugh,
Oh the kid wears a crown,
By the magic palace lounge.
It is rude and chill as I battle on the field,
You're a night time right oh the dragons on your side.
And the fancies are fine,
It's a castle in the sky.
Heart is melting a bird,
There are castles in the air.
Fairytales leave me think of coming from a memory,
Fantasy is not a find; find your castle in the sky.
Doo doo dad a doo doo dad a da doo doo dad a da doo doo dad a dadoo doo d dad da doo dadada.
My chemistry which you complete my head is over cated despassed,
Which is my lat. I wanna arrange a dad a today,
Don't want to pay something that have me looking around,
