Alphonsus Celestine Edmund Cassell MBE, known by his stage name Arrow, was a musical force hailing from the small Caribbean island of Montserrat. Born on November 16, 1949, Arrow was a pioneer in the soca music genre, infusing it with vibrant calypso rhythms to create an upbeat sound that resonates with the spirit of the Caribbean. He gained international fame with his hit single "Hot Hot Hot," which has been a party anthem across the globe since its release in 1982. The song has been subjected to numerous remixes, reflecting its enduring popularity.

Throughout his illustrious career, Arrow remained a prominent figure in the evolution of soca, continuously pushing the genre's boundaries with his innovative approach. His discography is a testament to his ability to invigore audiences through infectious melodies and pulsating beats. With albums like "Ole Ole" and "Classics+," along with lively tracks such as "Beat De Drum!" and "Ride De Riddim," Arrow's legacy is marked by a passion for creating music that compels listeners to dance and celebrate life. His work, including dynamic remixes like the "Hot Hot Hot (Oddio Tribe Remix)" and the "Hot Hot Hot (Universal Dance Mix)," captures the essence of the Caribbean carnival culture, and his impact on the music industry can be felt even after his passing on September 15, 2010. Arrow's distinctive sound remains a fixture at festivals and parties, continuing to ignite the same energy and excitement as it did at its inception.
