Ras I Maric is a very passionate reggae singer/songwriter who takes his career very seriously.

He was born with his god given talent to do music and play football, growing up as a youth in Jamaica at the age of 13, I-Maric started singing, free styling against some of his friends but didn't realised that he had agift from god and never took it seriously because of Poverty and football.

I-Maric was born and raised in the heart of Kingston Jamaica without a father figure, he lost his dad at the age of three by stray bullets fired by gunman and police, so to make it out of the Ghetto wasn't easy for I-Maric nor other four siblings and loving mother Maggie.

Growing up in Kingston 11 wasn't a bed of roses for I-Maric, he went through a lot of struggle, hardship, and sufferation, sleepless nights without dinner and going to school without lunch, but yet still he never step out of line or disobeyedhis mother, I-Maric always try to do the right thing and loved his football, that was his main dream to become a professional footballer, he played school boy football, premier league and for his work place in Jamaica before he migrated to England in 1999.

While living in England, I-Maric went to college to further his knowledge in computer studies and engineering. I-Maric then he moved on and started working, and playing football for various clubs, he was scouted at the age 25 and went on trials for two different clubs Kettering Town FC and Brentford FC threetimes but didn't make it because of his fitness level and was jus recovering from a broken foot, but felt proud of himself to know that he have the capability of stardom.

In 2004 I-Maric was working, making Mannequin at a Mannequin company called Adel Roostein in west London, while at work I-Maric was always singing and dancing to music on the radio and sometimes free styling as usual when some of his co-worker never believed that what he was singing was his own music coming live from his brain on the spot, so one of his close friend/co-worker Fitzroy aka major skits a English producer told I-Maric that he has a talent and he should start writing and maybe thinking of becoming an artist.

That's when I-Maric got inspired and started to write his songs and going to the studios, when I-Maric started his music career in 2004 he wasn't taken seriously, he got a lot of criticism, and fight in the industry but that didn't stopped himfrom trying until he was linked with Ms Paula Henry aka Suzie Q in 2007 where they worked together and produced his first single OH MAMA in Jamaica, the video was also done and was showing on the UK, US AND JA tv channel.

Working with Suzie Q opened the doors for I-Maric, in 2008 he then got approach by a lady from Maryland in America about management, she also got him to opened a mothers day show for recording Artist Daville in New York also working with afew young producers and got interviewed on radio stations. The following year I Maric recorded his second single called WICKED HAFFI RUN WEH on the golden gates riddim in England produced by Zion House Production along with various artists such as international artist Determine. That help gave I-Maric’s career a

lot of recognition locally and internationally.

In 2009 I Maric decided to go Jamaica, back to his homeland, to try to improve his meditation and further his musical career.

I Maric spent 9 months in Jamaica, he was linking with Determine who took him to TruckBack Records in New Kingston to meet big producer Steve Locke who heard I-Maric ‘s music before but never know who he was. I-Maric spent most of his time at TruckBackRecords but still went to other studios such as Flava Squad, Alliance/Payday Music, and Arrows Records.

Coming back to England in 2009 wasn't what I-Maric wanted because he was getting good feedback and recognition in the music fraternity in Jamaica on his independent music promotions. I-Maric received a phone call from Cory Todd, the former business manger of Vybz Kartel, to discuss a possible meetinghowever I-Maric had to return to England to attend to an important family matter.

While back in England I Maric was approached for the third time by a management company from Boston, Massachusetts about doing a 1-month tour of various states doing some benefit shows for Haiti and with the possibility of getting managed. I-Maric paid for his own flight costs and performed in Connecticut, Hartford, Boston, Manhattan, and Philadelphia.

Even though the management offer didn't work out it was a great experience for I-Maric and something that he will never regret doing.

I-Maric wishes to say a big thank you to all those that have and still supporting his music and he will never stop writing good music with different topics and storyline for you all.
