Trezay
Trezay began rhyming at the age of 13, nurtured his skills throughout high school and hooked up with producer Big Shawn their high-school love for breakdancing, music and skateboarding. Sitting in Philip's Barber Shop at 13 and 14, the place where it all originated, the guys had a dream something they wanted to make happen for them, the one thing that they both loved....... music.
The vision of an album was there, but how long would it take? A little patience, perseverance, and respect and love for the music. You see, back in those days they didn't have a market to make music for. "We had like 50 Hip Hop heads on the island so we didn't have a reason o make albums. We just used to cypher perform for our few fans and battle all day everyday. But now people are realy into hip hop and they buy the music like crazy now." Trezay is not an average hip-hop artist. In fact, this young man has been in the entertainment arena for most his life. With elements of hip-hop such as breakdancing, rhyming and graffiti-writing making up his demeanor, he is not only creating a stir on the airwaves in Barbados, but will soon hope to do so around the Caribbean and the Americas. Trezays fusion resume is by far one of the most impressive on the island. He has worked with some of the hottest producers and artist over the years. He has released his own soca album entitled Trezay-ChipHop. A mixture of caribbean rhythms and hip hop. Not only is this young man a writer, he is also a producer. Doing the co-producer role for the last few records, he figured it was time to take it into his own hands.

It is clear that his unique sound has the hardiness of a veteran writer and performer. Trezay challenges musical boundaries by carving out his own identity in todays highly competitive market. His signature high energy songs will have you dancing at first listen. He stays true to his own creative spirit. "Im just fortunate that people happen to like what I do".

He is now currently no. 10 on the Artistopia Hip Hop charts. With the establishment of his production company, LiquidFlowProductions, and a growing musical palette of singles garnering strong radio support, Trezay is forging his way into an elite circle of beat crafters and song writers. He has maintained strong roots in the underground movement over the past 15 years but now he believes it's time to move foward to the Intertional markets and put Barbados on the map for Hip Hop. On january 8th 2006, he and his crew were awarded the cornerstone award for his contribution to hip hop and the local industry over the years. Trezay's second studio album is set for a 2006 release & will feature collaborations with his crew Poundas and long time friend Bigshawn, as well as colabos with Bajan artist and producers.
