“With Round of Applause, Ky­enie continues to show why he is an artist who deserves a place in the
higher echelons of the reggae fraternity and of the music industry as a whole. Drawn from his own
observations, based on the experiences of persons, Ky­enie has put together a lyrical plea that is sure
to earn him the respect of his peers.” ­The Jamaica Star
“The talented artist has released the single Land Of My Birth, produced by André 'Dre­tegs'
Hawthorne. The single is already creating a buzz on FM radio and the singer is quite upbeat about its
progress. Ky­enie wrote the song about two years ago. Since returning from a promotional jaunt in
Europe, he linked with Hawthorne for a live album and the song was thrown into the mix.” ­ Star
“After touching the lives of countless people with Rain and Glory Day, Ky­Enie will look to place the
Reggae culture on his back and drive it forward, using inspirational, innovative and undeniable music.”
