Dwaine is originally from Trinidad and Tobago. He moved to New York and started out in the music business, before moving to Canada, where he was signed by Universal subsidiary Rage. His first two R&B dance albums, First Love in 2009 and Super Beast in 2010, didn't make much of an impact. The participation of P.Diddy, Trina and Keri Hilson in 2011 on his track "U R a Million $ Girl" may change all that.
