Professor Jevy says there’s ‘No Debate’
Canada-based dancehall artiste Professor Jevy is creating a buzz with the recently released dancehall collaboration, No Debate, alongside dancehall star Munga Honorable.
Since the song’s release on August 20, the song has been added to the rotation playlists of radio stations in Jamaica, the US, and the continents of Europe and Africa.
“I just want to thank Father God first and foremost. Big up Lock Di Globe Records. The feedback has been tremendous, especially from the mixtape selectors. And I am working on other projects ... ‘cause the work just start now,” said Professor Jevy, whose given name is Jevon James-Adams.
The artiste was born in Toronto, Ontario, to Jamaican parents but left that country to attend school in the Cayman Islands, where he grew up and learned another culture and style of music.
“I was exposed to the culture of dancehall and reggae at the age of 10 and have loved it since. I came to Jamaica to stay connected with my roots, and even attended school at Munro College for a third-form year,” he said.
At the age of 19, he released his first song, One Night, with Smokendo Records, and his confidence began to grow. He began to fine-tune his sound.
“I am an independent artiste who enjoys the challenges of reaching to the top. This No Debate song is the first major step towards establishing my brand and name in dancehall,” he said.
There are plans to shoot a video for the single.
