At an early age young Byiome always had a passion for music and used to be fascinated by the Reggae culture.  Though being a Reggae star was a gift he didn’t think he could possess.  Even though Byiome had good grades in school he also had some turbulent times.  While attending Garvey Maceo High School he got into trouble and was suspended.  With something negative in his life came along with a positive.  A older friend of his told him to try and pursue a career in singing due to his great voice, thought process and vocabulary. Byiome kept the idea in mind in case his plans to be an Architect failed.  After completing high school with good grades his family couldn’t support his dream to become an Architect due to the lack of money.  This was a blessing in disguise becuase after this moment a star was born.

Though he was doing it for fun and didn’t think anything would become of this.  His friends would encourage him to get more involved in the Dancehall scene and take it more seriously.  It wasn’t until a producer heard one of his free performances and saw huge potential with his raw talent and lyrical ability. With confidence in his back pocket it was time to come up with a stage name.  Byiome chose to go by the name of I – Octane due to his high energy levels and long lasting ability.

Busy Signal was raised by his mother as a child along side three brothers and one sister.  Busy’s mother played a very import role in his life by keeping him away the temptations young black males face in Jamaica by bringing him to a Christian church a couple times a week.  Busy music talent was first noticed when he opened his mouth to sing one of the church hymns a star was born.  People in the church noticed that his great lungs and was able to hit cords with such precise power.  After on of his own versions of a the typical church hymns the church congregation gave him a standing ovation that put a smile on his face.

When most young kids get lunch money from there parents they buy food.  As for Busy Signal he went straight to the music store to pick a variety of cassette tapes from Supercat to Celine Dion.  With a good voice and ear for music he was able to understand the beauty of all types of music genres.  As for the American market he was picking up Jay-Z, Eminem and Whitney Houston and any new release that hit the streets in Jamaica.  His love for music didn’t stop him from getting in trouble in class by making beats on his desk and sneaking out of his house with out anybody knowing to listen to Deejay’s blast beats from there sound systems.

As time went on and the passion for music was still in his veins Busy Signal was able to make contacts with several sound systems in dreams of reaching the stars to become a recording DJ.  Through hard work he was able to do dub plates for Renaissance and Kilimanjaro that got his foot in the door.  It wasn’t until Busy hooked up with sound engineer from Renaissance named “Fatta” who helped guide him through the right steps in order to be an artist.  Busy was doing everything he could to record all the new information about music cords, breath control, metaphor and word play.  All this was quite new for young busy but it still didn’t stop him from what he truly wanted to become.  Busy Signal went to the US for some short time where he got locked up for conspiracy.  He was able to get his act together and stick only to music.  His hit song “Jail” was his own depiction of how he saw prison life.

Time went on and so did his drive.  Busy Signal finally got lucky and tested out his talent during his very first single “Shake It Fast“, on the Tunda Clap Riddim.  That was a start but it wasnt until the year 2005 when Busy was now going to be known across Jamaica over night with his hit song “Step Out”.   His unique voice had everybody wanting more.  Thanks to Bounty Killer he let Busy preform his talent in front of a huge audience in Kingston.  Bounty Killer and Busy became business partners and joined “The Alliance” that helped grow his career.

Busy Signal got his name from never picking up his phone and avoiding people.  His friends and family would get frustrated when they would call and get a busy signal.  Busy works very hard in the studio and focuses on new beats and notes that is unheard on in Dancehall.  People used to laugh at him when he played Opera in the studio to pick up on sounds that he was unfamiliar too so he can use them on his songs.  He also loved old school American R & B artists “The Commodores” where he sampled the song “Night Shift”.  He also used “One More Night” from Phil Collins 2009 that turned out to be a huge success.

Ryno used to preform his music talent in high school.  It wasn’t until he was around 16 years of age when he joined up with a Seven man group called the East Side.  From then his love for music continued.  Blak Ryno knew he had to make a big decision with his carear after he left school, either work or sing.  He choose the impossible task to become a DeeJay in Jamaicans competitive music industry hoping to come out on top.

As time past Black Ryno wanted to advance his singing ability, so he contacted one of his close friends who was a DJ in the local Waterford area.  He had asked if he could get in contact with Jamaican superstar “Vybz Kartel” and show him what he can bring to the table.  Lucky for Ryno he got the chance to preform in front of Vybz the following month and executed his voice and rhythm.  Addi Palmer aka Vybz really liked what he saw.  Though Vybz wanted to make sure if Ryno was right for the job by bringing him to a studio with a very experienced old school DeeJay.  He had given the thumbs up and told vybz he should sign him because he is right for the job.  From that moment on he entered the very powerful “Portmore Empire” camp.

Ryno knew instinctivy that he needed his own style to stand out in the industry.  He had to bring something to the table that you wouldnt normally hear in the Dancehall music industry.  He would had to prove himself before Vybz would bring him in under his wing.  As time progressed his voice not only changed for the best, but his unique flow was the missing link in what the industry needed.  From the moment he was able to prefect his talent things started falling on his lap.  His first ever recorded single was Shelle-le-le off of the Siren Riddim in 2005 that got a lot of buzz on the streets.

Blak Ryno is now a free agent and continues on his own to get back to where he was.  Ryno has grown mentally in the industry and keeps staying on the positive side and moving away the negative vybes.
