Ky-enie is a true expression of Reggae fusion. As you move through one of his performances you’ll be taken on a musical odyssey that is rooted in Reggae music but touches on Dancehall, Folk, and Acoustic Soul. His blend of spiritual vibes and hardcore truths shows his listener the depth of his understanding. He is singing, deejaying, and strumming his way through the pages of real life.

Born in Jamaica, Ky-enie decided as a teenager that he would pursue his passion for singing and deejaying. He went the usual route of entering competitions and talent showcases. That was a time for him to hone his skills and learn to decipher his voice from the many people who simply followed the musical trends.

Ky-enie has been moving the crowd from Jamaica to Canada to the USA with his hard-edged vocal style and lyrical versatility. He counts among his inspirations the late Robert Nestor Marley, Buju Banton, and Tracy Chapman. When he is performing on stage he wants his audience to “feel the positive side of the music and where I am coming from. I’d like them to feel the spiritual side of it as well as the party vibe.”

We can look forward to hearing more from this artist who has opened for headliners such as Sean Paul, Buju Banton, and Sizzla all around the United States. His first single “Nah Left di Girls” is due out on E2 Records by the end of the year. The catchy hook on this dancehall track already has industry insiders paying full attention. Ky-enie’s humble nature, along with his fierce determination and uplifting attitude, has clearly positioned him as next up for success.
