BIOGRAPHY
IsRaeLsSun
I love all genres of music. I believe music sets the mood of life, the mood for living, the mood for expressing spontaneous emotions and feelings. Without music life would be very boring. Born on the Island of St. Croix May 26th, 1982 but moved to the island of Antigua were I spent the early part of my childhood. The native sounds of this island were Reggae Music, Calypso and Steel pan. I remember being a child walking through the streets with my mother hearing this music and thinking, Wow! I was blown away and it was then I found my love for music.
As a child I was a member of the drama club, participating in community plays, a member of the Glee Club (choir) performing at different shows and charitable events and also a member of the stilt walking club, performing in Carnivals and visiting neighboring islands dancing and singing on stilts. I got into writing songs through poetry. I would write love letters and poems for friends for a little extra cash. I spent my summers visiting different islands and countries taking a bit of their culture and musical heritage with me. As a teenager, I moved to North America permanently journeying through Toronto, The Bronx, Miami , and Los Angeles .
It was on these journeys I found my calling and decided to take my hobby to the next level, a career in music. I wanted to create music with an impact, not just to make sales and climb the charts. To make a difference and have a positive influence on society and the industry, I created World Music based on my experiences and situations, utilizing hard hip hop kicks, low rumble bass lines of reggae music, Latin drums of South America, African instruments and acoustic guitar. It only takes one spark to ignite a flame and by God?s will I offer my music to be that spark. ISRAEL?SSUN! As the Sun in the Sky shines and gives light to the world, let God?s light shine through me for the world.
