Back in the studio with Kabhir Bonner

10 years ago I officially started this journey in music. After an 18 track demo and plenty cassettes full of deck recorded freestyles circulated among friends, 'Mystory' began in studio with Kabhir Bonner. '2002/For My...'

This is for my ghetto children

Not the ones that's living in it but the ones that's got it living in em

This is for my warriors

Not the ones that start wars but the ones that's gotta fight the odds

This is for the poor

Not those that live beyond they means but the ones without the means to live

keep your heads up ... this ones for me and you

2002 we gon' turn these grey skies blue

...And that's how I came out the gate with my first official recording. Fully embracing that I was a British Jamaican yute spitting from my hip hop soul. I turned around and spoke on my environment, Music Correspondent coming to you live from the streets of round town Kingston, Jamaica.

Now I find myself back in the studio with Kabs 10 years later with a focus shifted further forward to the rest of the world, the global marketplace, Jamaica my backyard...

Images from PAYATTENTION

After missing the first installment I couldn't miss the second. Its free All u have to do is #PAYATTENTION. Inztinkz and DJ Andre Young kept it one-hun'd Hip Hop for the heads and open minded, setting the pace for Shermon Dadz and Frank Griz to rock the house first.

Been keeping a low pro but had to support with Five Steez performing tracks like Growing Pains from his forthcoming album War for Peace. Proud night for Hip Hop. A healthy gathering, chillin and spilling to favorites from then till now, then Tari Prime capped off the performances for the night serenading the ladies thoroughly.

Inztinkz and DJ Andre Young continued to serve the rap fiends that well cut dopeness into the hours.
