Major Myjah in the big leagues

Young artistes signs ROC Nation deal

From being listed as a songwriter on Chris Brown’s Grammy-winning hit Summer Too Hot to now aiming for similar success with his latest single Exes, American-Jamaican artiste Major Myjah’s journey is a testament to his talent and dedication.

Exes delves into the theme of ex-lovers still holding on, a sentiment reminiscent of his father dancehall heavyweight Bounty Killer’s 1994 hit
Gal.

Major Myjah’s recent signing with ROC Nation, one of the entertainment industry’s premier management companies, is a significant milestone in his career.

The company, home to artistes like Megan Thee Stallion, Alicia Keys, and DJ Khaled, is the perfect platform for Myjah to share his unique sound with the world.

Expressing his excitement, he said: “I’m thrilled about this partnership. I can’t wait to connect with people and share the music I’ve been crafting over the past few years with the world.”

For Major Myjah, music is more than a profession; it’s a part of his soul. He vividly remembers melodies filling his mind from a young age, often surprising his mother with impromptu freestyles.

Surrounded by legends like Freddie McGregor, his songwriting skills blossomed in his own backyard.

“My earliest memories are of creating melodies in my head and my mom writing down lyrics as I spoke them out loud,” he shared.

Today, Major Myjah’s music is written sometimes while strumming his guitar, or in the studio creating beats.

Major Myjah said his father has helped to guide his journey to becoming a musician.

“I am inspired by his dedication to the people, and his role in the community. He always supported my music from a young age, which gave me the confidence to keep going. It was always love, joy, and full support.”

Brimming anticipation for his future projects is sure to pique the interest of music enthusiasts and fans alike.

His music is now available on all platforms.
