Jay Vernon - I LOVE M ALL

“Jay Vernon” formerly known as “Anonamyss” is a blend of inspirations from all types of music to make a distinct hip-hop sound. Hailing from Lower Sackville, (Halifax) Nova Scotia, Canada, he has been a force on the Canadian Hip Hop scene since his inaugural debut tour alongside local act Spesh-K in 1999 at the tender age of 15. A chance to visit Halifax hiphop legend DJ JoRun’s studio in the late 1990s set Jay Vernon on a path to motivate the masses through his music, and shine a spotlight on the many talented hip hop artists coming out of Canada's east coast. He has spent the past few years perfecting his craft as a Producer and audio engineer, all the while working away at his next 2 releases upcoming compilation album “Discover: The Anonamyss BrokenTapes2” & debut solo album "Paradox". “My music is my life," says the Halifax MC. "My life lessons. Everything I've learned I try to translate that through my music.”

the 1st release on deck, “Discover” shows Jay Vernon incorporating live musicians into his brand of music, as well as collaborating with some historical legends of the hip hop world on a few songs. The album has 29 unreleased songs from the last 9 years featuring guest appearances from Masta Ace, Yancey Boys, Lamar Ashe, Stricklin (of EMC), Nature (of The Firm) & many more. Jay Vernon was surrounded by music growing up. His father performed, produced and wrote songs for a number of Canadian artists and groups, including the Stytch In Tyme, Everyday People, and Molly Oliver. Jay Vernon’s interest in Hip Hop developed throughout his early teens. And inspired by the words and music of artists like Masta Ace, Nas, early Mobb Deep, Slick Rick, Kool G Rap, Warren G, etc. Jay would soon put pen to paper, and the rest is history. A gifted writer, producer, and performer, Mr. Vernon has shared the stage with some of Canada’s most celebrated hip hop artists, performing alongside the likes of Classified, Kardinal Offishall, Skratch Bastid, The Rascalz, AZ (of the Firm), Masta Ace, Edo G, eMC, Slaughterhouse, Pharoahe Monche and many more.

Apart from performing and recording, Jay Vernon is passionate about creating opportunities for local artists to display their talents. He established MuzikOverMatter, a record company designed to promote homegrown Hip Hop. MuzikOverMatter supported some of the brightest lights on the east coast urban music scene, managing and putting together hip hop outfit Mad Craz' (Skoo Boy, Unknown, Short Shane, KnuckleHead aka Tyrone of the Trailer Park Boys) 1st album "They Must Be Mad", Skoo's debut album "Ol Skoo/New Skoo", & the Short Shane's posthumous debut release "The Weekend" (Rest In Peace). Jay Vernon’s aspirations around promoting local talent would later result in a 2005 compilation called “The Anonamyss Broken Tapes”. The project saw Jay Vernon collaborating with artists like Classified, Mad Craz, White Mic, Jorun, Spesh-K and many more. “With every album I'm coming up with a newer sound,” says Jay. “Not just hip hop, but elements of reggae, funk & soul, rock & roll, and just everything.” Keep an eye out for “Discover: The Anonamyss BrokenTapes 2” slated for a late 2015 release. “My music will never have borders.”
