Chaka Demus & Pliers are a Jamaican reggae duo made up of deejay Chaka Demus, and singer Pliers. Both artists were established musicians when they teamed up, and earned international recognition in the early 1990s. They were the first Jamaican act to have three consecutive top five hits on the UK Singles Chart; a record unsurpassed until Shaggy scored four consecutive top five hits in 2001. Their first hit "Tease Me" stayed in the top five of the UK Singles Chart, for three months in 1993, reaching number three for a number of weeks in July. After releasing a cover of the Isley Brothers' "Twist and Shout", the song reached number one on the UK Singles Chart, in early 1994. The re-release of their debut album Tease Me also charted at number one on the UK Albums Chart, in 1994. Chaka Demus & Pliers are best known for their 1994 single "Murder She Wrote", which was mainly popular in North America, the Caribbean, and the UK. Pliers is one of the Bonner brothers, all of whom are reggae artists, including Richie Spice, Spanner Banner and Mikey Spice. (via Wikipedia)
