It is very easy for young talent to get overshadowed in the highly competitive industry of reggae and dancehall, however, recording artiste Fabian Wilson more popularly known as Boom Steppa, has no intent of falling prey to that phenomenon.

Given the name 'Steppa' by a friend because of the rhythmic manner in which he walks, he later annexed 'Boom' to compliment the explosive compositions he had planned for the mainstream music market.

Standing a commanding 6' 2'', the lanky singer not only towers over the average person, but also his lyrical contenders with sharp, meticulously written songs complimented by catchy melodies and pristine clarity.

Hailing from Central Village, St Catherine, Boom Steppa realised he had a gift for music at an early age and soon began aligning his focus in that direction. With the daily evolution of his lyrical skill set, he steadily adapted the mindset of a recording artiste and continued honing his craft despite being in school. A student of the Jonathan Grant High before transferring to Tivoli Gardens High School, Boom Steppa oftentimes took to the streets in search of recording studios in his plight to kindle a recording career. His chance came after a friend introduced him to the Black Roots studio operated by the late veteran rocksteady icon Sugar Minnott, where he recorded his very first single, Ghetto Life.

In 2010, Boom Steppa made the bold move to start his own record label, Nexxstep Network, releasing his most successful record, Naaw Stay Poor.

No stranger to the stage, Steppa has performed at a number of top-tier events, including: Fully Loaded, Bling Dawg Summer Jam and Galiday Bounce, among several others.

Now under the guidance of Magnolia Inc., his new management team, the singjay is set to release his first official EP, My Way, on the Kemistry Records imprint. The nine-track compilation will be available on iTunes and other digital platforms as of today.

Following the release, a full roster of activities is planned, including a US promotional tour and a local EP release party, before jetting off for tours in Australia and New Zealand.
