About Me
First and foremost I would like to thank the most high
for making me who I am. I would like to thank my mother, my sisters and brothers, and the rest of my families and friends.About Me
I was Born In Maxfield(Kingston)Jamaica, where at a young age I move to Mandeville, and grow up in Manchester. I ended up spending
the rest of time in Portmore where I found my
passion for music. I never really take the music seriously. In
1997 I migrated to the United State, and was residing in
Brooklyn NY. while In Brooklyn I attended A Training
Institution(Job Corp). While attending Job Corp I was
playing on the soccer team and was fortunate enough to
get a soccer scholarship to go to Genesee College. In college I met This Guy
by the Name of J.R who was into Hip hop. We both
experiment it with reggae so we would often do collaboration.Unexpected eventUpon completing 2years in college, I was about to move on to a four year scholarship, that’s when the world trade Center got hit. I keep a
New York state of Mind - I think they came too close to
my mother who was living in Brooklyn. I
made a transition and join the us army but I still
have a crave for music.In March 2004 I was deploy to fight In, Operation Iraqi Freedom.
I have encounter some traumatic incidents while in the army for eg. My Best
friend Chuck star was Kill In my Arm - Bullets that hit
Him graze me. Before his death, he was always Encouraging
me to do an Album but it never happen. I Felt
Obligated To do so the Album after his death, in remembrance of his
Tribute.How it startedIn Iraq I got together with one of my
Comrade name Big Ben and he help me out with the
project, My first time recording was in Baghdad Iraq.
After doing the Album title (Out Of Many One People),
the title was given to me by chuckstar. I record a
whole album while over there.there was time when I have to sacrifice my life and my sleep to make it
happen, but I learn how to channel the fury of warfare into
something positive and this is what I always enjoy
doing. Then after returning to the states I ended up
going Back to Afghanistan doing a private Mission for
the US government, which I spend another year In
Afghanistan, My music mission never finishes I write
enough songs to complete One more Album. After
finishing up my Afghanistan Mission I went to Jamaica
to produce the Album which is still not yet complete even thou I have already recorded all the tracks.
Radio Disk Jackie are Playing My music on The Air

Marley, Tupac shakur and the most Prolific, Nasir Jones(NAS) I also get inspiration From Rastafarian Faith, a historical Faith within the Jamaican Culture. From this Faith I get my spiritual guidance.Thanks for the opportunity.
