Akshan's style cross references his native patois with a euro-pop dynamic to create a modern “Euro-Yard” style and genre indicative of who he is as an artist. Cross referencing the familiar yard patois and the English vernaculars, he has mastered a unique harmony driven hybrid style that truly set him apart from his contemporaries. Akshan first released off the Island Rocker is the pop-centric single, “Jealous Type”, produced by Andre “Arsonal” Sturdivant (Akon, Wale, Sean Garrett, Raheem Devaughn, Pusha T). The song received extremely high praise and feedback as an independently released single amassing over 10,000 downloads in the first week, winning over fans worldwide. Following up on the success of Jealous Type, Akshan has released the “Island Rocker” which features a number of Arsonal-produced tracks including the title track “Island Rocker” and “Californicate”, which features vocals from songstress Laura Song. As an artist, Akshan thrives in the performance of live music, surrounded by the thunderous beat of a kick drum, the boom of the bass and the ranging melodies of a guitar. Showcasing his music, Akshan has performed internationally with the DubCity Renegades (Costa Rica, Jamaica, Dominican Republic and along the east coast) amassing over 100 shows annually.
