“I was born in the city Kingston, Jamaica, you know the home town of ‘The Legendary Bob Marley,’ cool eh? Now, it’s hot, burning hot, sun from that moment of birth. I was blessed. Blessed with this musical voice, talent to write from the Almighty Father, for real! My childhood years have been about music. My uncle had a sound system & a record store. I selected on the sound system in the record shop I would play the flip side of records. Plugged a mic in, then started chanting. Within seconds the shops interior and exterior would be like Reggae Sunsplash, trust me. I soon realized something within me musically. One day at my friends house I was chanting to the flip side of a track when someone approached my friend and asked, “Who is that girl? She sounds wicked” he then stated that he had a sound system and would like me to be one of the DJ’s for his sound he had a dance in process with artists like sister charm, and Pablo Mellow. It was a smasher. It did not stop there, I wrote frequently, chanted fluently at contests, dances etc.”
