Of course he did. John “Jellybean” Benitez, a former New York DJ, produced this great but half-forgotten 80s dance tune. But it seemed unusual at the time for producers to take top billing above singers and musicians. However this caught on and Jellybean paved the way for the likes of Fatboy Slim and Calvin Harris to be similarly acclaimed. Jellybean went on to great success. He dated Madonna and remixed tracks for Whitney Houston and Michael Jackson. But wasn’t this Steven Dante’s record? He was the singer, Jellybean just pushed the buttons. So what happened to Steven Dante? Very talented British soul singer but never heard of again. Though who said life was fair?
I’m not saying he didn’t do anything.
