Meet Masicka, a 19-year-old from Jamaica making a name for himself in the tight-knit world of dancehall. He's not your average artist; Masicka is a DJ, singer, and songwriter with a unique style that's catching the ears of fans both locally and internationally.


His recent hits like "Guh Haad N Done," "Whistling Clean," and "Lose Control" are getting a lot of love on Jamaican radio stations like Zip 103, Hits 92, and Fame FM. But it doesn't stop there – Masicka's music is reaching audiences in the United States and the UK through popular reggae/dancehall radio shows. It seems Masicka is on the path to becoming the next big thing in dancehall.


Backing him up is the team at One Motion Music, who are helping to propel Masicka to stardom. He's had the chance to work with some top-notch dancehall producers over the past year, including Equinoxx Music, Icon, Makonen, G3 Musik, TJ Records, and CrashDummy Productions. One Motion Music, Masicka's long-time production house, has been a crucial part of his success, producing hits like "Whistling Clean" and "Lose Control."


The excitement is building as One Motion Music works on Masicka's first music video, eagerly awaited by his growing fanbase. The anticipation is not just local; it's international, with fans around the world curious to see what this rising star is all about.


Masicka's journey started in Independence City, Portmore, where he grew up. He calls it "Sin City," and it was there, surrounded by a vibrant dancehall scene, that Masicka honed his lyrical style. Raised by a hardworking single mother, he faced challenges but used them as fuel for his music. His talent blossomed at Calabar High School, where he gained the nickname "The Future" for his advanced wordplay. People started comparing Masicka's flow to that of dancehall legend Vybz Kartel – a big compliment in the world of Jamaican music.



A turning point came when Masicka connected with Leon "Kabah" Brown, a schoolmate deeply involved in the local dancehall scene. Kabah, along with Addis Pablo from One Motion Music, became Masicka's producers, helping shape his raw talent.


Masicka's hard work paid off when he won Hype TV's DJ competition, earning a recording session with Equinoxx Music. The result? "Anno Sometime," one of his most popular songs. The buzz around Masicka quickly spread, making him a recognized name across the island.


Even established DJs like Aidonia and Vybz Kartel acknowledge Masicka's potential to represent Jamaican culture and dancehall music globally. With a strong online presence on platforms like Facebook, YouTube, and datmad.com, and soon on iTunes, Masicka is making waves internationally.


As he shares his unique experiences through vivid lyrics, Masicka remains humble and committed to working harder in the music business. With features in Jamaican publications like the Gleaner and the weekly Star newspaper coming up, Masicka's journey is hitting new milestones, and dancehall fans everywhere are enjoying the fruits of this young, talented DJ's rise in the industry.
