Johnson Code ready to make his mark
Canada-based reggae artiste Johnson Code is determined to make his mark on the local music scene.
“I live and work in Canada, but when it comes to my music Jamaica is the main area of focus. I want to make a serious impact in Jamaica with my music because Jamaica is the most important market for any reggae or dancehall artiste. After I get established in Jamaica, I can focus on conquering the rest of the world with my music,” he said.
The Kingston-born deejay was recently on the island promoting two new singles, Grow and Learn, which was produced by Jahni Records, and God Mighty co-produced by Action House and AJ Music.
“I had a good time promoting my music in Jamaica. Despite what some people are saying Jamaicans still love good reggae music. Everywhere I went to promote my songs I received a positive response,” said Johnson Code.
During the trip he also went into the studio to record tracks for his upcoming EP which is slated to be released later this year.
“I am happy that I was able to go into the studio and lay down some tracks for my upcoming EP. I have a few more tracks to go before it’s completed, so I’ll be returning to the island very soon to finish up the project. If everything goes as planned it will be ready for release this summer.”
Johnson Code, given name Alvin Alexander Johnson, launched his recording career in the early 90s with the release of a single titled It’s A Danger (Loving Your Body Too Much).
