Talented Performing Artist When did you first get into music? I’ve always been involved with music, dance and acting from a young age, having a talented creative Jamaican family it’s hard too not be involved. I started off in my aunties dance group called Jukebox Juniors. We travelled the world, featured in films and competed in the toughest competitions. We were part of a program on Sky 1 called Got to Dance and an actor on Cebbiebes and Cbbc when I was a kid. After years of dancing, my Grampy always tried to teach me to sing, but when you are younger it is easier for a boy, once you go past a certain age its either make or break for you. I started writing raps with a couple of my friends when I was 13, my first one was to the fresh prince of bel-air (but made my own version). I got my first lead role in Hairspray as Seaweed in my school, and I was so nervous. As a performer, I’ve performed in front of thousands no problem, but that was physical. Performing vocally in front of a crowd was a different ball game. So, I tried creating a couple of songs and performing them in a local festival. After seeing the reaction of that, it instantly grew me a new passion and the new journey started. What genre of music do you perform and why? I mainly perform Commercial Hip-hop, as it’s upbeat and more catchy for the audience. I also perform Trap and Rnb just to mix up my performance a little. And why did you choose that style of music? I like to create and perform music I like to listen to, my music library is so diverse and I try to show that in my music.
