Kranium: A ‘glitch in the dancehall matrix’

“I am a glitch in the matrix.”

It is his unapologetic assessment of a career that has challenged conventional thoughts about what it takes to establish oneself in dancehall, particularly the long-held assumption that an artiste must be physically based in Jamaica to remain connected to the culture and build a successful career.

Born in Jamaica, but based in New York, USA, for much of his professional journey, the Nobody Has to Know hitmaker has established an international presence while operating outside the island’s borders.
