No stranger to the perils of the inner city after losing several family members to gang violence, the young singer hailing from the Spanglers community in Downtown Kingston is currently signed to Live MB Music. Jae Prynse explained that the song speaks to his personal struggles and he feels that the motivational force of the song has enabled it to solidly connect with critics and fans alike.
“The song is about my personal struggle, growing up surrounded by violence, poverty and lack of opportunities which is a journey many people across the globe can relate to. As Jamaicans, we know the journeys of Usain Bolt and Leon Bailey to get to the level that they are at presently, but for them to endorse my song it is truly a blessing and I say respect to them and everyone that has been supportive of me and my career since my emergence.”
