Shane roams CREATIVELY
Oshane “Shane Creative” Junior, known for his work as a music video director, is now dabbling in music production. He has found success with Squash’s latest single, Still a Roam.
“I grew up around dancehall music. My brother-in-law, Knatural Flo, had a studio in my house in Grants Pen. And that was where an artiste brought a camcorder and left it one time because it was malfunctioning. And I started taking it out and bringing it to school. I have always had the love for the camera, and now am pursuing another love, music production,” he said.
The single, Still a Roam, released on the Wikid Media imprint has racked up over 400,000 views.
“The video is doing really well and knowing that this is my first production, this is a major achievement for me,” Oshane Junior said.
