“I was really excited in joining the army and the prospect of meeting new people was great. But, there was a void that needed to be filled in my life. So, I went through each day thinking about what more I needed out of life.

“And, there was the answer staring me in the face because there was Buju and I suddenly wanted to get more involved in the music. He was having hits across the world, even winning a grammy award.”

“Then, one morning I woke up and decided to be a record producer.

“I am going for greatness, just like my uncle Buju. I saw his dynamism when he performed at two great shows,  Buju Long Walk to Freedom Concert at the National Stadium, Kingston and the Bahamas.

Lethal Vybz born Troy Sterread, lived for sometime in King Weston a rural community in St. Andrew. He migrated to join his mother in Canada when he was 12 years old.
