Markus Myrie raises the bar with new rhythm

MARKUS Myrie, son of dancehall great Buju Banton, recently released the Bar Bounce Rhythm on his Markus Records.

Myrie, who had a prolific 2012, is confident this latest project will maintain his momentum.

Songs by Ninja Kid, Elephant Man, Khago, Mavado, and Flexx are on the Bar Bounce. Also, a collaboration with Beenie Man and Future Fambo titled Let’s Make a Toast.

Myrie, who is also a deejay, contributes Bar Haffi Sell featuring Blak Ryno.

The 19-year-old has been working with a number of upcoming acts in recent months, signing Bryka and D’East and recording songs by Versatile and K.I.

Myrie says a high point for him last year was the track Bad Mind Dem a Pree by I Octane and Bounty Killer. Based on its success, a number of artistes have approached him to work with Markus Records.

The 5th Gear and Beating Stick rhythms were other 2012 projects by the label.
