Rayzor has been singing from
as early as he could remember.
Coming from a musical family
in La Brea, South Trinidad.
Performing was just a way to have
fun and to pass time. His early
influences came from Ninjaman,
Capleton and Wayne Wonder
as he was a big fan of dancehall
music. After having the added influence
of artists such as Andy, Ajala,
KMC, Machel Montano and
others to learn from and to build
upon, he worked on his craft
with dedication and hard work.
He later migrated to the U.S
and became a member of  The
Request Band which he’s now the
band leader and lead vocalist.
In 1998, Rayzor and a few artist
from Port of Spain formed a group
called the XTREMISTS. Under the
guidance of a local “Soca Michael
Jackson” impersonator Andy
Stephenson, Rayzor made the
transition from dancehall and
became a Soca Artist. He is best know for past mega
hits like “SPONSOR MEH” The
Cooler Fete Anthem and Summer
Mega Hit which in 2013 won
him the Soca Award for “Best
US Based Song” alongside the
biggest North American Soca
Collaboration
“BESS
FETE”
which was done together with
bandmate Leonce. 
Rayzor is destined for greatness
and it shows as he continues to
work hard with his band to spread
Soca music in to the masses
worldwide.
His 2016 release GYAL DROP DAT
on the “Warn Dem Riddim” is an
energetic party starter for the
Ladies.
