About King Stitt

King Stitt, born Winston Cooper or Winston Sparkes (1939-2012) was a Jamaican DJ. King Stitt was the oldest living Jamaican deejay. Sparkes was given the nickname Stitt as a boy and decided to use it as his stage name, becoming King Stitt when he was crowned 'king of the deejays'.[citation needed] He began deejaying on Coxsone Dodd's Sir Coxsone's Downbeat Sound System in 1956 or 1957, influenced by American DJs heard on radio broadcasts from Miami and New Orleans.
