The Prodigal Son

about

Calvin Curtis Whilby a.k.a. Prodigal Son was born in St. Catherine, Jamaica. He was raised by his grandmother, a Godly woman who made sure he grew up in the Christian church. Accepting Christ at age five (5) he followed the Lord until the age of thirteen (13), unfortunately his grandmother died. This was the turning point for Calvin who moved to Kingston and found residence in the cold suburb of the community called Rema, one of the toughest innercities in the Caribbean. Calvin rebelled from his Christian upbringing and against God choosing the lifestyle of Gang and gun violence. Surrounded by negative influences, this rebellious ghetto teenager found protection and family in his gang, called Fatherless Crew the same would later be called Lock the City Crew. He gave up his guns and girls and accepted Christ. Similar to the parable of the Prodigal Son, Calvin returned home to his spiritual Father, what was once lost had now been found. As he humbled himself before the Father and asked for forgiveness, he surrendered all to Jesus. Like any love story, the Prodigal Son got baptized on Valentine’s Day, Feb. 14, 1998 and has never looked back. Inspired by the parallels in his life, he copped the name Prodigal Son and although he had no previous secular experience in music, he soon realized he was blessed with a gift he decided to use it for the glory of God. He was introduced to fame producer Danny Brownie who soon became both mentor and friend Brownie guided Prodigal through his
