CHRONIXX TAKING THE WORLD BY STORM

-

Jamar ‘Chronixx’ McNaughton has been on a steady climb since he first hit local radio, but perhaps his climb began before that as a youngster attending St Catherine High School in Spanish Town, St Catherine. Perhaps even before that, watching his father, Chronicle, take on the dancehall scene. After connecting with some figures in this reggae star’s past, it becomes clear that the path to success was paved early.

Since then, he had his ‘career-defining’ Grammy nomination and Billboard magazine profiled the young reggae artiste as one who has redefined reggae music metrics. In 2017, Chronixx made his second appearance on ‘The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon’; he became the face of adidas Spring Collection, a 1970s Jamaica-inspired sneakers/clothing line; and preceded the release of his highly anticipate­d sophomore album, Chronology, with a 44-date US promotiona­l tour.
