Steez was born in Kingston, Jamaica on November 11, 1986. Throughout youth, music was his biggest fascination. The indigenous Reggae and Dancehall genres were the soundtrack to his life. Some of his earliest musical memories, however, were of his exposure to Hip Hop. As a child, he wrote a few raps in his spare time but never did he imagine that he would still do so today.
Five Steez is a passionate lyricist and poetic warrior. Known for a wide array in content, laced with reality and emotion, he epitomizes militancy and consciousness in Hip Hop. Years of mixtape releases, performances and televised music videos have positioned him as one of Jamaica’s leading MC’s and the world is recognizing. Five Steez began a three-part mixtape series entitled ‘Momentum’ with Bronx legend, DJ Ready Cee in late 2010, and Volume One has received thousands of downloads worldwide and much praise from Hip Hop fans. He is currently working on his debut album, ‘War for Peace’ to be released in 2012, and is also one-third of Kings of Kings with fellow local Hip Hop artist, Kabaka Pyramid, and DJ Kingstun in Birmingham, UK.
