Xtrait is a Reggea/Dancehall artist /Entertainer /Musician 
A lover of music arts and life, xtrait started doing music at the age of 12 years old living in waterhouse at the time when I was staring high school at Penwood High.
Singing on the corridors was a hobby for me, there I met up with other young musically talented students we use to sing and beat riddims on desk tops any chance we get even in our classes.
Ended up forming a music called S.S.B alongside Quad which was another music group in the school, in about 2006 Xtrait recorded his first song tittled 
She’s all alone, at Underground records. By 2011Xtrait re-formed a music crew/ Label called T.G.O The Great Ones.

Born Eric Sommers in 1984 in a rural community called "Bellevue" in the hilly areas of Portland, Iyara always had a love for music.

With his major influences being Bounty Killer & Sizzla accompanied with his lyrical prowess and talent, it was just a matter of time before he embarked on a full career as a Dancehall DJ.

After moving to Kingston, Iyara started to realize his dreams when he first voiced a single called " Musical Warfare" on the Fully Thugs Label and was produced by Dutty Coolie. After doing that song he did a serious of performances at Colleges, Stage Shows and even doing a tour in Costa Rica. Getting this buzz it was only a matter of time before a fellow artiste called "Advance" (who is coincidentally the nephew of Bounty Killer) realized his talent and decided to introduce Iyara to his mentor Bounty Killer.

After being introduced to the Alliance's General, Iyara was welcomed and signed as a part of Jamaica's leading Dancehall group "The Alliance" !!

Notably Iyara lost a true friend who had hoped to share along the dream of being an accomplished DJ. "Blue Chips" was a member of their "Fully Thugs" group killed unfortunately. Instead of this de-motivating Iyara, it did the opposite. His death has motivated Iyara in such a way that he is now on the verge of being the "next" artiste to break big in Jamaica!

He has performed at Sting, Fully Loaded, Spectrum and many other high profile events and he's getting heavy rotation in the dancehall and on radio stations both locally and internationally.

His latest projects includes a number of mix CDs including "Bad mi Bad" and singles for 2010 and beyond!!

Iyara now under the Management of Rescue productions will definitely be heading to bigger and better things and will surely be a force to reckon with for 2011 and beyond..

Jamar Rolando McNaughton, using the moniker Chronixx, has ignited a torch in people's hearts the world over and is confidently lighting the path for an entire generation of youths to rediscover roots and culture.

Born October 10, 1992, Chronixx was musically nurtured from an early age by his father, the artist Chronicle, and grew up surrounded by the likes of Burro Banton, Norris Man and Gregory Isaacs. This was before 'Little Chronicle' benefited from the mentorship of Danny Browne with whom he recorded his first tune in 2003. His remarkable ascension in the music industry was in full effect when he began harmonizing for artists such as Lutan Fyah and providing production assistance for tracks sung by Konshens, Munga Honorable, Popcaan and others.

Today, Chronixx is a respected artist in his own right after his career was stimulated by the unfortunate passing of both his blood brother in 2007 and his brother-in-arms, Lil' J.O.E., in 2010. He decided during that period of grief to bypass the difficulties of a young producer seeking external talent by, instead, channeling his energy wholeheartedly as a vocalist. Thankfully, early and unwavering support was received from Zincfence Records producer Romaine 'Teflon' Arnett, who was the first to urge Chronixx to sing the lyrics he was writing for others.

The first EP, Hooked on Chronixx, was released in 2010 and immediately put the budding artist on the radar of music lovers and industry heads alike. Among its 7 tracks, 'Start A Fyah,' 'Capitalist' (featuring Infinite) and 'Behind Curtain' stood out as a fan favorites, reaching far beyond Jamaican shores. Meanwhile, 'Warrior' became Chronixx's first official video and served to alert many more to his arrival.

Chronixx toured for the first time in 2013 when he went to Europe with his own band. Soon afterward, he bestowed a name upon this carefully assembled musical crew: Zincfence Redemption. Altogether, their fascinating stage presence has elevated the Chronixx experience to new and ever increasing heights.

Also in 2013, he and his team were Jamaica's only representation in Nairobi, where he performed as a Peace Ambassador ahead of Kenya's general elections. The next year, he found himself in New York City where he participated in a reggae and jazz series together with living legends Ernest Ranglin and Monty Alexander. By this time, Chronixx had established new and renewed working connections with Sly & Robbie, King Jammy, Leroy Sibbles and, again, Danny Browne.

The Dread & Terrible Project was released in April 2014 with seven tracks plus three dub versions, immediately topping both the Billboard and iTunes reggae charts. Neither an album nor an EP, the Project also includes a short film based on one of its tracks, 'Rastaman Wheel Out.' The film was directed by "The Guru" Ras Kassa and has received high critical acclaim. The hit single, 'Here Comes Trouble' can also be found on The Dread & Terrible Project.

With so much accomplished in so short a time, the world is bracing for greater wonders from this young man who walks with an old soul. For Chronixx himself, music is a mission and history is being made everyday still.

"Prepare your minds and hearts for this revolution."
