Today’s #CreativeCallaloo throws a spotlight on a talent who needs no introduction. Jordan Simmons, better known to the masses as Ultra Simmo, is one of T&T’s top Djs and entertainment personalities. Simmo attended Naparima College in the years 2003-2005 as a Form 6 student, after attending St. Stephen’s College. At Naparima, Simmo filled the role of goal keeper as well as being a sciences student and showed great prowess in both areas. However, it was in 2005 when the Form 6 students reintroduced the “Naps Bazaar” that the college saw his true passion. The bazaar’s disco was in a frenzy as Simmo with Emmanuel Sounds, not yet Ultra, was the resident Dj for the event. Needless to say the bazaar went on to become a staple annual event at the college.
 
Fast forward to a few years later, Simmo began his rise to the top. He became a regular Dj at all the top clubs in the University nightlife circuit. Over this period he rebranded to the name Ultra Simmo. His persistence in the field led to him becoming a radio Dj and announcer on several radio stations over his career.
 
Today, his partnership with Dj Ana has given both entertainers a worldwide following and a passionate fanbase. Their live broadcasts are some of the most well received with thousands of live viewers on social media and this ability to reach the masses and entertain has landed them roles in the LA based sitcom “House Out of Order”. Ultra Simmo has now added to his portfolio Hollywood actor acting in a sitcom run by Bentley Kyle Evans who served as showrunner on several sitcoms, including Martin and The Jamie Foxx Show.
 
In a recent Express interview about his new acting role Ultra Simmo said:
“As a Trini, trying to break barriers and put us on the map positively in entertainment is an uphill battle. I’d like for those with experience or power to help to make the road easier for this and the next generation.”
