Question Query for Greenz Massive!

Brother B sounds like Blind Fortune Teller. (For those who remember him)
Is it the same person or a new artist.

There are only a few people in the world who really appreciated the tune Grandpa by Blind Fortune Teller; That would be Zen, UKSocaholic, Rhythmwize and DJ Spincycle from San Francisco, and perhaps a select few others. Come forward Blind Fortune Teller Fans...heh heh

Bft Bio

DION "Blind Fortune Teller" HOSTEN


DION HOSTEN

Dion was born in December of 1971 in Grenada. He still lives in Sautares, St Patrick. Dion was born blind in one eye and at the age of 6 he developed cataract in his other eye. When he was 8 years old he had surgery to help his eye, however four days after the surgery Dion was hit by a ball while playing cricket which caused further damage to his eye. Over the next two years his vision continued to deteriate and he was fully blind by the age of 10. If you know Dion you would not be at all surprised by him playing cricket after an eye surgery. Despite his disability there are many stories about the blind boy from Sautares riding a skateboard, roller-skating, riding a bike, and many other activities that most people with site have trouble performing.

Dion later attended the Rapid College of Commerce in Jamaica where he studied braille, mobility training, and telephone switchboard operation. He returned to Grenada where he began working at the Grenada Craft Center where he made souvenirs and crafts for visitors to Grenada.


Dion then became a popular music entertainer in Grenada known as the Blind Fortune Teller. For three years Dion traveled throughout the Caribbean and the United States entertaining people with his voice and inviting personality.


He then had the opportunity to study massage therapy which he was very interested in. “I never told anyone, but I always wanted to do massage therapy, because I knew I had the touch for it,” Dion has explained. He was licensed and has been practicing massage therapy since 2003. “I love helping people and relaxing their mind and body”
