Before becoming a YouTube sensation, Wayne Marshall was a dancehall powerhouse, known for his smooth delivery and infectious rhythms. His career took off in the early 2000s, collaborating with Vybz Kartel, Bounty Killer, and Damian Marley. His biggest hits, including Overcome, New Millennium, and We Roll, cemented his place in Jamaica’s music scene.  

Marshall’s ability to blend hard-hitting dancehall beats with socially conscious lyrics made him a standout artist. His track Glory to God, a gospel-infused anthem, showcased his versatility and deep connection to faith and family.  

Before becoming a YouTube sensation, Tami Chynn was a rising star in reggae and dancehall. Signed to Universal Motown, she collaborated with Sean Paul, Beenie Man, and Akon, making waves with her hit song Hyperventilating. Her career saw her touring internationally, but as she evolved, so did her passions.
