Jamaica is so musical, diverse and so extreme, from people singing in the streets to dancing.

Especially as an artist who has been signed to one of the majors throughout my last ten years, you don't always get to write your own music.

Jamaica is one of the most musically influential nations in the world. Throughout the entire globe, there are pockets that are constantly in touch with what goes on in the dancehall community, from Germany to Japan, to different parts of Africa like Ghana.

Because Caribbean music is now coming back into the mainstream, there are so many things that make this the perfect time to educate people on where this music, this vibe, and these dance moves come from.

I would be lying if I didn't say that the most inspirational place for me is Jamaica.

[Kingston, Jamaica] is the city, it's not a beautiful beach. But at the same time when I go to Jamaica, that's the only place I want to go. It's where the culture is its richest. Or if you have the opportunity, you can go to the North Coast and go to Montego Bay. That's where you get the beauty of the miles of beaches and beautiful resorts.

I'm inspired by everything that I encounter, from the environment to people to other songs, movies and artists.
