Countdown Clock by Zoodu.comDANCEHALL’S FINEST:SHE’S GOING TO RISE TO THE TOP! Janisa, alarmingly pretty, quaint- even “stushy” as she’s been playfully nicknamed, standing at a petite 5ft3inches is drawing in Dancehall fans by the thousands, with the magnetism and realness of her sometimes soprano, other times Caribbean tinged alto voice. Panamanian songwriter, singer, dancer and DJ, Janisa began her musical relationship with a prestigious post as Disk Jockey for WWKX RADIO ( HOT.106.3) while simultaneously attending the University of Rhode Island as well as the prominent CONNECTICUT SCHOOL OF BROADCASTING. The baby-faced, Dancehall vixen riding a tide of popularity with her high-status radio gig, would later find herself landing successful stints in fashion shows, modeling gigs and TV network competitions ( BET, MTV) most notably selected as a video Jockey Finalist for FUSE TELVESION. Newly selected as a VJ for trendy, New York- based YARD ROCK TV, Janisa’s ground-breaking single “ Big Up” announced to the world in just short eight months, has been quickly ushered in by top commercial conglomerates such as IRIE FM Jamaica, Clear Channel Broadcasting & Radio Express. Special World Radio Host DJ PJ Butta featured Janisa’s music in a Heineken Sponsored Summer Special of the WORLD CHART SHOW, consequently launching the ambitious singer’s career to Reggae fans throughout the West Indies. Thus, to date the vivacious Dancehall track “ Big Up” boasts garnered spins on major Caribbean radio outlets including Bahamas More 94.9, USVI Isle 95, Barbados Mix FM & JAMAICA FAME FM, Guyana 98.1, Trinidad & Tobago 96.1 WEFM, Aruba Cool FM and Haiti Radio 90.1 FM amongst several others,respectively. Peaking at NUMBER 14 on the MYSPACE Top Artist Reggae Chart for Massachusetts and recently featured in JAMAICA STAR Magazine as an artist to watch in 2009, Janisa remains humble about the career strides she’s accomplished rapidly as a Dancehall/Reggae newcomer. Ironically quiet in social settings, the intensely brown-eyed beauty exclaims, “I just want to make solid music. I want to be able to reach the ears of every Reggae fan in the world.” The buzz about the carnival-like feel Janisa demonstrates in her follow-up single “Get You Up” has been nothing remotely close to “quiet” as trendy Dancehall entertainment sites and reputable sound systems across the globe request jingles, dublates and interviews from the young budding star non-stop. With her song ratings through the roof, the Dynamic Dancehall Diva has racked up extensive media/e-zine features including 876.radio.com, Reggaemusicfm.com, BigEyenews.com, Tropicalfete.com, Westindianculture.com, Dubtunes.com, Panamareggae.com and dozens more!
