The artiste said he has the goods to make it big in the industry.
"I know it's a hard industry to break in. But my versatility sets me apart from other artistes. I try to do positive, uplifting and exciting music that my fans appreciate," he said.
In 2009, the singjay 'voiced' with dancehall elite Mavado and Flexx on the Gully Christmas (Big Ship) which helped to give him some attention.
