Rising reggae singer Vybrant has released his latest single titled Walk In. The song was produced by Jamie Roberts for Young Vibes Production (YVP).

Walk In has been generating ample airtime on FM radio and looks set to become a hit for the talented artiste who gained attention last year with the song Ears Hard.

In a release earlier this week, Vybrant spoke about the accompanying music video for Walk In. "We just completed the video for the song and it was directed by Jerome Hide of Unplugged Media. The concept of the video basically shows that my mind, heart and soul are pure," said Vybrant.

Signed to Major Links Entertainment and Shocking Vibes Productions, Vybrant was earlier this year nominated for an EME Award in the category Best New Male Artiste.

Born Andre Johnson, Vybrant hails from St Thomas. It was while attending the Yallahs High School that his love for music originated. With a strong background in drama, dancing and writing, Vybrant comes with a complete package. He is a uniquely gifted individual who has the ability to engage his audience with incredible vocal skills, and cutting-edge lyrics.

A practising Rastafarian, Vybrant's career has gone through numerous phases as initially he was a hardcore DJ who went by the name 'Squeechie Killer'. Serious medical issues, however, slowed down the career of this bright young star that caused his career to be sidetracked for two years.

Vybrant has recorded for a number of top producers from the Jamaican reggae scene. Among them are Bobby Digital, Computer Paul, Global Music, Gamble House, Dean Fraser, Major Links and Kemar 'Flava' McGregor, among others.

With over 10 years of persistent work on developing his craft, Vybrant has worked alongside some of Jamaica's top performers, including Queen Ifrica, Tarrus Riley, Turbulence, Romain Virgo and Luciano, among others. He has also graced the stage many of Jamaica's top reggae festivals and other events across the island. Among these events is Pepsi Teen Splash 2010.

With the release of his single Ears Hard on the Major Links Entertainment and an accompanying music video which shot to the top of video playlists across Jamaica and the Caribbean, Vybrant's place in reggae music was sealed.

Vybrant's current singles include I Love You featuring Etana, Head on My Shoulder, Every Step, Worthy to be Praised, and One of These Days featuring Nico D from Norway.
