About Me

Front man of the pop group Mr. President. Came to Germany from Birmingham, England in the late 80s with his brother. There they met the now hit producer and remixer Mousse.T and founded there very first group Fresh and Fly. After that LayZee aka (Delroy Rennalls) took to working the clubs and discos of Hannover and the north German area as a deejay. due to a lot of hard work and perseverance he managed to take the North German Deejay Championships held in Bremen. Within only two years of becoming a deejay. Mixing, Rapping and Scratching all at the same time to mesmerise the crowd and give him the title.While rapping his way through various studios, clubs and projects. He then received a call from the Mr. President management asking him for his help on there second project. Within a very short time of becoming a member of the band. They where signed to Warner Music and the rest is history. With hits such as Upn Away and Coco Jamboo they managed to storm both domestic and international charts. Releasing 4 albums and 15 singles Layzee had done well. Receiving platinum and gold awards left right and centre. Winning some of Europe's top music prizes. Plus being two time Echo Award winners for Best Dance Single and the following year for best Export. As well as media prizes such as the Viva Award and two time winners for the radio RSH Gold for best song and best live act. Touring the world from America to Japan and back It was a real success story.Now a days, he is now a Songwriter / Remixer and Producer with a studio in Peppermint Jam, doing his own thing. He loved the band but he also loves being creative without any guide lines. So moving from artist to a more back ground position was a very good move. As his first real love was deejaying and making people move. That's just what hes doing again producing and remix dance tracks for Peppermint Jam and for who ever needs a mix. To producing his own club dance tracks under his new Deejay name, Diezel Washington (which the first name was given to him by Mousse.T as a matter of fact - dont ask why. Delroy needed then a last name. I admire Denzel Washington and people say i look bit like him, I cant see it myself. So there you have it.). Diezels about to make his moves very clear. Java - My Oasis, Mr. President - All In The Game. Are some of the first songs he wrote. Working his way from the background is so much more fun. So there will be a lot more to come in the near future... You should create your own MySpace Layouts like me by using nUCLEArcENTURy .COM's MySpace Profile Editor !
