‘Hulk’ Writer, Jamesy P Introduces A New, Sweeter Sound. Says He Has Big Dreams.

It’s taken him some time spent in reflection for songwriter and artiste, Jamesy P to re-emerge, more certain than he’s ever been about his life’s purpose and musical mission. Accomplished as a songwriter already, having written Soca hits like Blaxx’s ‘Hulk,’ Machel Montano’s ‘Brace Up’ and other memorable songs Farmer Nappy and Fadda Fox, the St. Vincent and the Grenadines native is set to unleash a nine-track EP – something he says is like nothing anyone has ever heard. 

A businessman, a part from his career in music, James Morgan is certain about his gift. He understands that remaining grounded spiritually means accepting the task of using the gifts given, in a positive and meaningful way. 

When he had written ‘Hulk’ in 2017, he had been struggling with various life challenges. Through even the darkness of those moments, he said he heard a voice encouraging him to look at himself and understand how resilient he could be. That was just how the song, eventually shared with, and later sang and performed by Dexter ‘Blaxx’ Stewart, was birthed. His gift of songwriting would make way for him, as beyond that year, Jamesy P suddenly emerged as one of the few artistes who could both deliver on stage and behind the scenes, with the pen. 

The entertainer whose last major release came in 2019, has re-surfaced and is ready to showcase another side of himself. “You will never hear Jamesy P like this,” he admitted, explaining that his new tracks, while still delivering bits of his cheeky humour and personality, are much ‘sweeter’ on the ear.

The EP, which is called ‘Flipside,’ is set for complete release by the first week in July and will feature producers from as far as Kenya and certainly from across the Caribbean, including Jamaica, St. Lucia and Trinidad and Tobago. Jamesy says the sound is a crossover of sorts, ushering in a sweetness that sits on a vein between dancehall and a slower version of Ragga Soca. “I can hardly describe the sound and basically this is the flipside of Jamesy P,” he said. 

The first single off the EP has already been released – a track called, “Run Away,” with production work by St Lucia’s Ramsum Records. As promised, the sweetness is undeniable. “This is music filled with substance. I think this is what music is really supposed to be like – songs you can just slip on while you’re in the car and bop your head along to, all the way. You can play these songs with your entire family. There are some singles that have a bit of a double meaning,” he said with a laugh, “but all in all, you can look forward to Jamesy P a little bit on the softer side.”

As to whether he has plans to return to the fete and carnival scene in a major way, Jamesy says he is uncertain, but has even bigger dreams. “I have these big dreams. I have dreams of hitting big festival stages,” he admitted, letting it be known that he is by no means, thinking small. 

For now, his focus is set on delivering music with people in mind, music that can lift the vibration and influence people in a good way. “We have to be careful with how we use our platforms. There are some people whose minds may not be able to deal with the negative lyrics and dark sounds. We have to create timeless music,” he shared, assuring that this is what he will continue to do, as his mission continues. 

“Runaway” is now streaming on all digital platforms- Apple Music, Spotify, Tidal, Amazon Music and wherever else you get your music.

It’s a brand new concept being brought to life, in Point Fortin, however its impact, according to organizers, is already proving immense. The annual Point Fortin Borough celebrations, culminates this weekend and on Sunday, an event with a bigger purpose at heart, is anticipated to draw a massive crowd to fete, for the greater good.

Naya George

Naya George and Anson George spoke exclusively with Ebuzztt.com ahead of the all inclusive experience. They’re excited to see their vision come to life. Anson, a well known name on the carnival and entertainment circuit, is known for his strong involvement in the BeachHouse Carnival brand. “It’s going to be on par with BeachHouse,” he assured, asserting ‘Flowers’ as the new ‘must attend’ fete in Borough Day festivities. “There are other events happening on Sunday in Point Fortin but there’s no other event of this caliber, happening,” said Anson, explaining that a few tickets are still available for those who still want to get in.

For Naya, the effort is less about business, and more about purpose. “We are partying with a purpose. We want to let people know that this isn’t just about feting. This is the only party that’s happening in Point Fortin that’s giving back to Point Fortin,” he explained, adding that proceeds will go toward investment in the young people. “The first set of projects will be at the Point Fortin West Secondary School where the event is being held. We are going to revitalize the sports programme, playing field restoration, sporting equipment and that kind of stuff, to ensure the youths have a place to find themselves in the area of sports. Flowers is the premiere fund raiser to do these things,” said George.

Set to welcome fete lovers from 5pm on Sunday at the Point Fortin West Secondary School, Flowers will feature a cast of talented artistes, inclusive of Nadia Batson and Lyrikal. “We want to raise fund in style and with high quality at heart, hence the reason the event’s caliber is high. This is going to be a first for Point Fortin,” said Naya George.

Anson George

The Point Fortin Borough experience is widely attended, with a series of cultural events leading up to the weekend of excitement that is anticipated by locals and visitors alike, each year. “Flowers has set the tone for the Borough Day evolution I think,” said Naya George. “Fusion came to an end last night,” noted Anson. He said the cultural extravaganza, which was similar to Carnival’s Flava Village, was a huge success and noted the wide variety of cultural traditions, shared between April 25th and April 30th. “If people can jump on a plane to experience Grenada carnival, we are certain they can come from West and North Trinidad to enjoy the Point Fortin Borough activities,” said Anson, making it clear that ahead of the upcoming weekend, hotel and guest house occupancy is already high.

“Borough is like a second carnival,” said Anson. He said there are fetes happening throughout the day on Friday. “When you come, you get a taste of everything you get in carnival. You get the fetes, the all inclusive, the jouvert, the street food, the culture,” he highlighted, and this year, for the very first time, fans of culture, creativity and altruism, will fete with purpose at Flowers – a distinct, top tier, premium all inclusive experience in the heart of the borough.

Tickets for the event are available online at Stacy’s House Of Hair – Point Fortin, Atherley’s By The Park – San Fernando, Terminal 4 – Long Circular Mall and online at theticketgeneral.com.
