Imagine if Dancehall artist Sean Paul had the ability to rap like Jay-Z or vice vera. Wouldn't that be something?! That would be taking music to heights it has never been before, and also be creating a new era for music. Vursitile is the new phenomenon in music. A full-blown Reggae, Dancehall, Hip Hop artist. Vursitile, whose real name is Tishawn Taijay Clarke, was born and raised in Waterhouse, Kingston, Jamaica. Waterhouse is commonly known to have produced many successful artists, for instance, Beenie Man, Shabba Ranks, Baby Cham, Junior Reid and the famous Producers King Jammy and King Tubby.A product of the inner city, Vursitile faced many difficulties growing up, especially since he grew up poor. Nonetheless, Vursitile tapped into creative media as a means to alleviate the stress caused by the predicaments he was faced with. Vursitile turned to music. He started out (at 12 yrs old) as a back-up Dj for one of Jamaica’s first CD Sound Systems, “Superflexâ€, which allowed him to be exposed to all kinds of music. He admired rap artists like Biggie, P. Diddy, Mase and Tupac and Reggae artists like Bounty Killer, Merciless and Spragga Benz. "Yeah, mi grow up ah watch Biggie pon B.E.T- him, Puffy and Mase ah floss inna di videos dem, but Biggie was mi main idol when it comes on to rap music back then".Vursitile moved to Canada at the age of 15. His love for Hip Hop would grow as a result, especially since he was able to hone his linguistic skills, balancing proper English with Jamaican Patois. Linguistically, Vursitile has the ability to sing Hip Hop like any American-born Hip Hop artists and Reggae with fluent Jamaican patois and still manage to make his music relevant. "They don't call me Vursitile for nothing, you put me pon any beat and I got something to say, I'll make it hot even if the beat flop, si mi". He did 2 years of high school then moved on to University. All through these periods, Vursitile had little time to focus on music since he had to work full time while attending school.Vursitile pulls on a number of things from well- established artists to make his music work- artists like Bob Marley, Sizzla, Bounty Killer, Biggie, Tupac, The Game, Sean Paul, and Jay-Z. The stance for justice, equality, and freedom from Bob, the raw but consciousness from Sizzla, the hardcore-rude boy, defend the poor stance from Bounty, the razor sharp lyricism from both Biggie and Jay-Z, the resistance to the system and the fight to make sense of ghetto lifestyles from Tupac, the independence and ambitiousness the Game displays, the orientation of making music that appeal to women from Sean. Combine all these Legends into one and you have Vursitile, bringing music to a new era, being a full-fledged Reggae, Dancehall, Hip Hop artist.The future looks bright for Vursitile, who has approximately 3-4 albums of material. Vursitile will be releasing an EP which will be followed by the September release of his long anticipated Album. At 20 years old, Vursitile is ready to take “his†place in music, make a name for himself and most importantly, put Jamaica and Canada on the Hip Hop map. H.I.M RASTAFAR-I LIVES!!
