Jonathan Anthony Burkett

Jonathan Anthony Burkett was born in Miami, Florida in 1987 and raised in Jamaica by his grandparents. Economic hardship and serious health challenges, including brain surgery on January 30, 2006, shaped his early life, but he refused to let them define him.

He founded Upstormed Records to release his own music. His songs mix hip hop and soul with an uplifting message, from the reggae-tinged “One Life” with Ambelique to “Changes” and “Don’t Give Up” with Elisa Polanco and the street-ready Born To Make It. He is also an author and the founder of Upstormed Inc.
