Press Fyah was born Conroy Rennis in the parish of Portland (Jamaica). He grew up with both parents. As a child his hobby was football and he played so well that persons in the community assumed that is what he would pursue as a career. He also envisioned himself playing in England because as he puts it, he was too shy and lacked the self confidence to be a music performer. Conroy played football for his school, community and even his parish, he played at all, except the national level.

His desire for football subsided in 2003 after he got a job as a fire fighter and realized that there was just no time in his scheduled for soccer. While at work, he began writing music during his lunch hour. It was while doing this that he slowly began to embrace the idea of becoming a recording artist. After sharing his songs with someone from his community, he was introduced to a bunch of guys that was supposed to assist him in improving his craft. Instead he ended up forming a group with them and they became known as Space House. Unfortunately, the unit did not achieve much success so Press Fyah continued to work as a solo performer even though he maintains a solid relationship with the group. As far as the genre of music, he did both Reggae and Dancehall but placed more emphasis on Reggae.

Before joining up with Space House, Press Fyah did not have an official artist name he was still being called by his pet name, Troy. While with the group he began calling himself Xpress but soon learnt that another artist was already using that name and so he had to abandon it. When he entered the Magnum Kings and Queens competition in 2009 he used the name Fire Press, something his friends called him because he is a fire fighter. But once General Degree (one of the judges on Magnum Kings and Queens) heard him he suggested that he changed it around and so he did. In that year Press Fyah was selected only for the live show portion of the contest, he did not go any further.

Feeling more confident, Press Fyah re-entered the Magnum Kings and Queens competition in 2010. He was not sure if he would win but thought that the publicity would get him connected with music industry insiders. But to everyone’s surprise, including his own, Press Fyah won and was crowned the 2010 Magnum King of Dancehall! He was simply elated at the victory and to this day he refers to that as one of his greatest achievements.

Alas, the winning of the Magnum crown in 2010 did not translate into a recording or management contract. Press Fyah remained an unsigned artist and so he committed to pushing his music independently, something he continues to do even today. His catalogue includes “far away” on the Starkutt Record Label (Demarco), “close to me” a Sajay Production, the Rainfall Riddim Compilation by Good Good Production, and that is just to name a few. His most recent release is a single entitled “road users” which is on the Charlie Pro Record Label. All his songs are available online for streaming and download.

Bio written by www.mjent.net

Like many other artists before him, Dwayne Haase, more popularly known as Zayne, started off singing on the church choir. As a young man, Zayne spent a significant amount of time in the Portland community of Jamaica with his grandfather who owned a sound system, something that Zayne found quite fascinating back then. Whenever the opportunity presented itself, he would play around on his grandfather’s sound, singing over various record versions. He also spent a lot of time singing in youth groups and at Sunday school but he eventually transitioned from gospel to more secular genres. His musical inspiration came from artists such as Buju Banton, Jah Cure, Sizzla, Bob Marley and other culture based Reggae and Dancehall performers.

Zayne had an interest in aircraft engineering and felt that when he got older he would become either a recording artist or an engineer. His pursuit for a degree in aircraft engineering landed him at the Nation Aviation Academy in Tampa, Florida. While in Florida, he began to realize that he was on his way to accomplishing one of his dreams (becoming an aircraft engineer) but the other (becoming an artist), was being neglected. So by 2009 Zayne started to take frequent trips back to Jamaica where he connected and worked with established producers such as Red Boom, Digital Sham and others, all this while simultaneously performing on stage shows in and around Florida.

He has recorded several singles such as “my hero”, “strip tease”, “party in JA”, “look how long” and that is just to name a few. The record that has gotten him the most attention to date however is entitled “energy up”. Since its release, Zayne has gotten a lot of feature on music blogs and radio stations across America, Africa and Jamaica. The songs popularity also resulted in him being interviewed on Randy’s radio (New York), Boston 87 FM (Boston), Zip FM (Jamaica), Vibe 103 FM (Atlanta), Irie 98.3 (Bermuda) and many others.  Zayne has done work with the following record labels; Frenz For Real, Hard at Work, Money Green, Anthony Records, First Name Music, Claims Records and Digitalize Records. He has shared the stage with some of the biggest acts in the Reggae/Dancehall industry, one name worth highlighting is Mavado. Zayne songs are featured on many mix tapes by some of the most popular DJs in the industry; DJ Junky, DJ Kenny, DJ Dotcom and DJ Scary Gary.

Having now relocated back to Jamaica, Zayne’s focus is entirely on his career as a recording artist (though he has a degree in Engineering). With the current buzz that he is getting, he plans on capitalizing on it by releasing an EP called “Bloody City” in March 2015. Additionally, he will be working on a lot of singles all of which will be released periodically throughout the year.

Zayne is not signed to any record label or management company but he is represented by First Order Production. Anyone wanting to work with him may contact Camille Cole via email at firstorderproduction@gmail.com or via phone at (876) 296-4916.

Fans and supporters of Zayne’s music are encouraged to follow him on social media so that they can be updated on his career.
