During this time, he began to do destination gigs such as weddings and private events both local and abroad. His international portfolio is vast, with appearances in five of the seven continents in the world — Spain, Egypt, Germany, Guyana, Belize, Dubai, Bali, several caribbean islands, and the list continues.
