Ikaya's Performances Places Her On A Musical High



Dancehall deejay Ikaya is on a musical high following her commendable performances at a number of events, most recent of which was at St Mary Mi Come From, the cultural show staged by acclaimed fireman King Shango, aka Capleton.

In recognition of her growing popularity within the dancehall, Ikaya was no starlight act, instead she performed at 3 am, right after big gun Macka Diamond.

Conscious of the fact that several artistes were waiting in the wings, Ikaya did a medley of her tunes and upped the excitement ante when she gave the cameraman a little "something to remember". She appropriately closed her set with the single, Better Whine.

Ikaya, prior to this, had strutted her stuff and rocked the stage at Guinness Summer Eclipse at The Jungle night club in Negril, Jamaica the previous weekend. The only female on the line-up, Ikaya represented well for the ladies and held nothing back as she gave a crowd-pleasing performance to a packed house.

"It was my first Negril Weekend and with everybody from all over Jamaica in that town for the long weekend I knew that I had to impress and give it my best shot," she said during a backstage interview.

When this healthy body girl with a wardrobe that earns her a second look, a dazzling smile, and a lot of sass made her recent Reggae Sumfest debut, she could not be ignored. And Ikaya took control of the Sumfest stage and "dash it pon dem without warning".

By the end of her performance, she had the admiration of many, especially those who knew her buss out song Good Up, but didn't know that she was the deejay.
Always eager to please her fans, Ikaya and her management/production team Outtaroad Records, are busy in studio working on new music projects. Another video is also scheduled for release soon.

Gott Yo Positive About Single Produced By Seanizzle



After leaving Tivoli Gardens High School in 2004 it was pretty clear to Gabriell “Gott Yo” Russell that music would have been his only destination.

The self-motivated singer, who likes to be referred to as a “universal artiste”, recorded his first song I Wish, for internationally renowned music producer Phillip ‘Fattis’ Burrell in 2000, soon after he began voicing for numerous producers who were impressed by his talent.

Gott Yo, born on September 24, 1985, spoke confidently about his future prospects in the music business even though he has achieved limited success over the past five years. “I see myself as a universal artiste. Whatever the producer request I can bring that to the table. It’s (being in music) a task and you have to face it and study the business,” he said.

Inspired by his brother Lukie D and other reggae artistes such as Gyptian, Luciano, Daddy U Roy and Natty King , Gott Yo admitted that he sees himself being rated amongst the best in the business in the not too distant future. He believes his latest single I Need A Change, produced by Seanizzle, will give him the public attention he craves.

“My career is on the verge of reaching another level, which is the real breakthrough,” said the singjay, whose singles Real Love and Nobody Cares has earned him reasonable airplay both locally and internationally.

Though he is yet to perform on a major event, Gott Yo believes he has the mental and physical ability to entertain any audience, which is, according to him, is due to his unending love for music.

“Music means a lot to me. I was born in music and every family member I have is, or was, involved in music,” he said.

Other singles Gott Yo have recorded are Guidance, which was produced by Frenz 4real record label and Chauffer, which was produced by Open Air Productions.
