During a television interview Tuesday last the 29 -year-old who is caught between contractual landscaping and his music introduced the video of a recently launched single done with Jamaican artiste ‘King Prof’ under the Vision Sounds label. This is one of about 12 songs which will be featured on his soon to be released solo Album.
“This video is a cover for the oldies ‘Worried over you’ and we actually tried to do it three times and apparently this is the right time to release it. I encourage all Guyanese music lovers to support by buying a video CD combo at Matts Record Bar” the soft spoken dreadlocked youth said. The track was built in Jamaica while the song was recorded at the Vision Sounds Studio in Guyana. Originally the son was to have been done with Edwin Yearwood of the famed Kross Fyah band and when that didn’t work Bonny Alves was called in and that too did not work according to Trayon.
It was shot and edited by Troy, another member of First Born but the motivation for a remake of the original song was encouraged by veteran Music producer Walter Fraser (Wally).
Speaking about his career he said his 12 track album has already been recorded and will soon be mixed before being released before year end.
To him music is life and he was always supported by his father and mother and relatives from the time they recognized his talent. “I used to beat drums plenty as child and then my mother got me involved in Star Search way back in 1993,” he recalled.
His message to aspiring artistes is “continue working and keep your focus on your talent as a first love and a dream to be realized by you.”
He also encouraged supporters to keep supporting local.
This is the first song and video of my solo album so look out Guyana Treyon as well as some members of first born are doing things solo for now.
In a humble tone he is also encouraging persons interested in having their lawns and yards spruced up to contact him as he has started a land scaping business.
