As part of the production team EEDB Eagle E and Doc B Stevie Eagle and his partner Doc B played a great part in the British re-emergent R&B scene as one of the Garage Pioneers. So it comes as no surprise that Stevie Eagle E would be behind Chinese most promising international prospect ever - Ayi Jihu. It was when Stevie Eagle E and Doc B had success with Hong Kong born singer Leslie Loh, with a track called satisfied, which went to the top of the Music Week charts worldwide that Stevie realized that there was a future in developing a Chinese crossover artist.

His respect and growing understanding for China and its people and culture and time he spent there building bridges and also breaking down doors paid off in the end. He shot the first reality TV show in Macau (China) Asianstar24. He has done all of this and remained his own man, independent as well as keeping his artist Ayi Jihu independent from mainstream forces worldwide thus far.
