[edit] Life and career
Iyaz was born into a musical family and grew up on Tortola in the British Virgin Islands.[1] Iyaz studied digital recording in college and recorded music. Island Girls found radio success in the Caribbean.[1] Sean Kingston found Iyaz through his MySpace page in 2008. When Iyaz first saw the messages from Kingston in his MySpace inbox, he didn't believe it was really him and ignored the messages. But after receiving three more messages, Iyaz thought he'd better respond [2] and later signed a recording contract with Time Is Money/Beluga Heights, a record label owned by Warner Bros. Records. Kingston introduced him to producer J. R. Rotem. "Replay" was released as his first single. It received No. 1 on the iTunes British Download Chart. He then performed. another song called "Solo" in 2010. [1] He also took part in "We Are The World 25 for Haiti."
In an interview with HitQuarters, producer and Beluga Heights head J.R. Rotem described Iyaz's creative perfectionism:
"Whereas others might work on several songs in one day, he might sit there and work on one song for days. The end result that he gets is usually an absolute gem, so heartfelt and genuine."[3] [edit] Discography [edit] Studio albumsYear Title Peak chart positions US UK 2010 My Life Debut studio album Released: June 15, 2010 Label: Warner Bros.
