Jermaine Show is a young, vibrant entertainer also
known as Einstein who was born on April 08, 1983. The
21 year old recognized his love for music from a very
tender age. He grew up in an area called 'Spoilers'
in Downtown, Kingston.
Jermaine realized his obsession for music at about
age 7. At that age he would go about seeking studios
to record songs, until age 15, when he discovered Arrows
Studio where "all the big artistes" were
located.
He always wanted to contribute positively to the society
as an entertainer. He describes himself as a "straight
up person, a clean youth and a person who is always
focus on his career". He also wants to produce
music.
His inspiration came from various music and artist,
alike. Artistes such as: Bounty Killa, Assassin, Vybz
Kartel and Papa San. This mixture resulted him developing
a blend of Dancehall, Rock and Techno.
Jermaine spends most of his time at the studio either
listening to new beats or trying different rhymes on
new beats or doing dubs for different producers and
dj's. He has worked with numerous producers but prefers
Scatta, because Scatta he claims, "has helped
to elevate his career". He is currently working
with Kings of Kings Production and Gang Bang Entertainment.
This young man is a songwriter who performs at a lot
of small shows. His hit single 'Na Run' done in collaboration
with Problem Child, has received much airplay. He has
not released any CDs yet but is planning to release
one later this year. He is currently working on singles;
one of his latest is called 'Wet Up Urself' on the
Fungus Rhythm. It is one of Scatta's latest productions.
For the future he plans to release his CD, do some
major tours to help promote his album and spread Dancehall
music across the world.
His wish for Dancehall music is to see it on a pedestal
like Pop Music and Rock-N-Roll.
When asked if he sees himself as a role model, he
said "yes, most definitely. I was born a star.
A jus' di flava, di style, a' how wi walk an' talk,
mek children wan fi be like wi. Girls from all over
lionize mi".
