About Projexx:
Projexx has musical pedigree. He is the son of music producer Lloyd “John John” James and grandson of Lloyd “King Jammy” James, arguably one of dancehall's most influential producers. He learned the fundamentals of music by sitting in and observing their studio sessions where he would use his feverous curiosity and acute observation skills to absorb as much knowledge as possible – which he would soon apply to his own work. Projexx grew up living between Kingston, Jamaica and Brampton, Canada and his musical influences span from Drake to Drake to Dennis Brown and everything in between, – self-described as “a melting pot of musical genres” – he draws inspiration not from just one source but the combination of many. He has collaborated with established artists such as Wizkid, Konshens and younger artists such as Jesse Royal, Ruger, Juls, Bakersteez and more
