André 'Norshous' Lee - CONTRIBUTED
ANDRE 'NORSHOUS' LEE is on a mission to make it in the music business. The 19-year-old budding star grew up in the Rockfort community with his aunt. He said it was sometimes rough but there were also good times.
"I started doing music from about 10 ... I remember my friends used to do it, but I was like a sidekick for them," he said.
But as with most of those who try to to become superstars, he faced a marathon uphill battle. "The struggles have been tremendous because, first of all, as a young artiste coming in the thing, you have to prove yuhself seh you really hungry fi it."
He now has a single, J.A. to N.Y., which he says has been played on Cayman's number one radio station.
Norshous says he has always been an underdog as his talent is always overlooked.
"I always say this, I am one of the most underrated but yet still one of the most anticipated." he added. He says he is willing to take his ambition to New York if he does not make it in Jamaica.
Norshous is predicting that not only will he become a household name in Jamaica but he will also be "seen at the Grammys performing and collecting Best Album of the Year."
He says his guardian wanted him to take the typical safe route by becoming a lawyer or a doctor but he wanted otherwise. Norshous has undergone training to become an electrician and said he will probably dabble with journalism if music proves unfruitful.
When asked what sets him apart from others, he said, "I'm bringing me to the table, somebody else can't bring me to the table ... I'm bringing a new era to dancehall."
