Early life and career
Born in St. Catherine, Jamaica, Marshall moved to Kingston when he was eighteen. At the age of nineteen, a friend introduced him to FL Studio (formerly Fruity Loops). Without any formal musical training, he started using the FL Studio beat-making program. A few years later, he started making beats for his friends in his neighborhood; one of those friends was a former member of Sean Paul’s Duttycup crew called Daddigan. He later got introduced to other artists and producers and began his journey to becoming not only a professional producer.
His first production work was at the age of 20, when he worked on two tracks on a riddim (applause) for Jahsnowcone which featured Beenie Man, Sizzla, Shano, etc.
