Born Kemar Woodfine
on October 25, 1990 in Kingston Jamaica. He grew up in Bridge View
Portmore, where from an early age he fell in love with Jamaica's popular
form of music, Reggae and Dancehall. Captivated by his father playing
from his catalog of music at at home, birthdays and private events Kemar
knew he was destined to do something with music. His early influences were the likes of Buju Banton, Bounty Killer, Assassin/ Agent Sasco among others.
Kemar
continued to write and record various songs with Track Starr and in
December 2015 he put out his ground breaking hit single "OH GOSH". "Oh
Gosh" has been widely received by fans across the Tri-State area and
Jamaica, meanwhile, enjoying rotation on major mainstream radio such as
Hot 97 FM, IrieJam Radio, Sirius XM and many core Dancehall programs.
In
2003 at the age of 15, he migrated to New York. By this time his
passion for Jamaican music grew beyond just listening but wanting to
be a part of music in the sense of an artiste. Christopher Martin, h is High-school friend, had
won a major talent competition in Jamaica, "Digicel Rising Stars" shot
straight into stardom becoming an instant international reggae artiste.
This would add a greater influence to Kemar as he became even more
determined by this accomplishment.
In 2013
Kemar wrote his first song which he recorded the same year titled
"Every Girl A Mine" produced by Track Starr. He then started going by
the name Kemar Highcon and quickly garnered many listeners
and followers.
"Oh Gosh" is set to release through his new formed partnership
with the Premier Dancehall, Reggae and Pop label, Ranch Entertainment.
Kemar Highcon is currently in the studios with array of Ranch
Entertainment producers, working on new music and shaping his sound to
let the world know he is here to stay. Look out!
