Fyah Roiall, born Brandon Wedderburn, is a top lyricist, hip-hop/grime MC & champion freestyler straight outta Kingston, Jamaica. Roiall cut his teeth on soundsystem parties all over Jamaica, as well as at larger island wide-events like Magnum Kings & Queens. Observing the Jamaican ‘First Coast’ hip hop movement on one hand and the ‘New Wave’ of reggae revival millennials on the other, but affiliated with neither, Roiall maintains an original voice and a commanding presence of his own. (Roiall is a part of an emerging industry in Jamaica of young creatives, musicians, producers, photographers and filmmakers, with a shared vision of forging a trend-setting music industry with international impact.) As a conscious rapper/deejay, Roiall is drawn to the political voices in early hip hop and conscious black American pop culture, when hip hop was a powerful voice for disenfranchised black youth. Rallying against the disturbing dumbing down of contemporary mainstream music, Roiall has an impassioned and charismatic flow born from his sharp political mind and social consciousness, and shaped by his experiences growing up in the developing nation of Jamaica. However Roiall also represents for his rich Jamaican musical heritage. Roiall is inspired by the creativity and variety of early Jamaican reggae dancehall music before Yellowman, and excited by his Jamaican brothers and sisters in the UK diaspora leading the grime, garage, and dubstep scene. Rapping in his native Jamaican patois, Roiall’s raps are stories about the past, present and future, embedded in a complex understanding for his cultural and historical place in the world. Although an intensely private artist, his creative lyricism provides a window into his mind, to a place where his observations can be said openly and shared with other free minds around the world. Following his first EP “Audio Therapy”, Roiall has a full schedule of releases in 2017, starting with the single ‘Wolves’ with leading Jamaican producer Teflon of ZincFence Records. He will also release his first studio album, ‘One Day’, with producers Covncil, NJay (Peak Music), Teflon of Zincfence Records and SOS Dynamics, as well as several tracks on upcoming releases with Australian producer Monkey Marc.
