Stage Name: Timber-Lee

Real Name: Timber-Lee Heaven

Birthday: June 2

How did you get started in the business?

"Wrote a song about myself an a fren by accident. Koolface overheard it and told Don, and by the grace of God I ended up at Vendetta."

What has been your greatest challenge in the business yet?

Balancing school and music, time management.

What have you been up to lately?

"Trying to graduate, currently at Concordia University in Montreal, Canada. I'm working on some new singles, have two new songs out called Wifey and Matey and Wretchenel. By summer probably put out the video for Wretchenel."

Do you look up to any specific artiste?

"Ward 21 definitely. I wouldn't say look up to but respect Vybz Kartel and Busy Signal, as a female I respect Tifa and Lady Saw."

Are you happy with the way things are going for your career right now?

"Happy. Things have kinda slowed down now because of distance but I'm working on it, generally happy and I'm blessed."

Anything you'd like to change about it?

"The momentum, really wish I was in Jamaica more often and (I could)do more live performances, that's what I'd like to improve."

What are your future plans? "Gonna start working on my album and to get out there more, so that people can know me more on a personal level."

Do you have any advice for young artistes coming up?

"If you're truly talented you'll definitely make it. There will be obstacles but you have to have 150 per cent to make it and don't allow the obstacles to deter you. If you can visualise it, make it happen."
