Ever since he was a youngster growing up in his home town in Princess Field, St Catherine, Jermaine Millington aka Tmar was very passionate about music. At age nine, he began performing at school events while attending St Dominic Prep. This trend continued throughout his high school years, as he also became very active in dancing, drama and music. The former Charlemont high school student has come a long way since those early days; now he is a budding musician, producer and singjay. "From I was a little boy, music was a big part of my life, other than music the only thing that really piqued my interest was football and although I played football in high school, in the end music won out. My whole life is about music now, making beats, recording my songs, performing and producing for other artistes," he said. Over the last four years, Tmar has produced a number of rhythm projects featuring himself and other artistes including Little Hero, Charly Black and Timmi Burrell. He is currently promoting a brand new rhythm called the Street Cleaner. This rhythm features songs from artistes like Timmi Burrell, Edge Michael, Mojo Herbs, Qurious, Belgium-based African singer Musaby and Tikaros from Japan. Tmar is very excited about the project which has been released over a month now. Since its release all the songs on the rhythm including Tmar's I Fear No Evil have been receiving strong support both locally and overseas, especially in Japan and Europe. According to Tmar, the rhythm has what it takes to be a success globally. "The Street Cleaner was made with the international market in mind, the rhythm is pure dancehall, it has the '90s flavour that's missing from dancehall music now and the songs are well-produced and mastered. I really think with the right support from radio it will go places worldwide." He also thinks this project will be the one to give him the musical breakthrough that he has long yearned for. "I have been doing my thing for a good while now and I think that I have finally found the winning project. I have been getting a lot of props for the Street Cleaner, people really seem to like it. All the songs are doing well especially on youtube, and I have been getting crazy comments on facebook about it. Everywhere I perform my song on the rhythm, I have got a good response." All the songs on the Street Cleaner rhythm were mixed and mastered by Marc Leys at |
