Frass Khalifa eyes international success

Recording artiste Frass Khalifa has always had a natural affinity for music, and, from an early age, he was exposed to a wide variety of musical genres, including reggae, dancehall, hip hop, and R&B.

"There was always music in the house. My family listened to many different genres of music. This experience helped me to develop an undying love for music, which is what has fuelled my desire to become a recording artiste," he said.

The Trelawny-born deejay whose musical influences include Bob Marley, Agent Sasco, Professor Nuts, Busy Signal, and Vybz Kartel, has his sights set on international stardom.

"The type of music I make has a universal appeal because I sing about topics that everyone can relate to, regardless of colour, class, or creed. I'm making music for the masses because I want to be internationally known," said Frass Khalifa.

The artiste, whose given name is Carl Anthony Gordon, made his recording debut with a song titled Chopper Liar in October 2020.

"My first recording was well received. It wasn't a hit, but it opened up a lot of doors for me. I got a lot of opportunities to work with producers because of this song. So, I'd say it did what it was supposed to do," he said. He is gearing up to release a new single titled Rich Now.
