I’m Althea Hewitt, a Grammy-nominated artist from Kingston, Jamaica. I grew up in Vineyard Town surrounded by music, inspired by my father Stephen Hewitt, a gifted guitarist and owner of the Mighty Cloud Band. I started recording early—my first duet, ‘Sweet Love,’ set me on a lifelong journey of performance and storytelling. My school years were filled with performing arts on Teen Star Search, Cathi Levy’s Little People and Teen Players troupe, and winning the Ms. High Energy Mastermix competition, which led to my second song, ‘My Song Needs a Melody.’
With Fourth Street Sisters, I helped shine a spotlight on Jamaican cabaret, delivering hits like ‘Long Way Home,’ ‘Still the One,’ and the number-one ‘Play on Me.’ I also built an acting portfolio with Tribe Sankofa, staging shows such as ‘Intimate at Studio 38’ and ‘Althea Hewitt’s Merry Family Christmas Special.’ My career has taken me around the world, opening for reggae legends and representing Jamaica at a cultural showcase in Brussels. My debut album ‘Introducing Althea Hewitt’ featured ‘Boom Boom Boom,’ followed by ‘Stronger’ (2019) and the EP ‘My Black Is Strong’ (2020). In 2023, my single ‘To Sir with Love’ topped the Clinton Lindsay New York Chart and hit No. 2 on Florida charts. I’m continuing to release music—‘Rise and Shine,’ ‘Jamaica Funk,’ and ‘Raise Your Glass’—with a third album ‘Taste of Affection’ expected in 2026. As an International Recording Artist/Producer, I’m dedicated to creating high-quality music and videos that resonate.
