Tessellated

With Jamaican influence on international music inescapable in the current era, a new wave of exciting artists is emerging from the Caribbean island. One artist leading the charge for this global assault on the music industry is Tessellated, a multi-talented Grammy & Emmy-nominated 24 year old artiste/producer from Kingston. Citing influences from many genres, a unique blend of styles and sounds shapes the backdrop for Tessellated's musical endeavour. Through this, he aims to push forward a fusion of Jamaica’s roots with world genres.

Continuing the trend of breaking boundaries, in 2019 Tessellated picked up a huge sync deal with Apple for his track ‘I Learnt Some Jazz Today. After its release, the song went #1 on the Jazz Billboard Chart, a first for a Jamaican artiste & went on to earn Tessellated an Emmy Nomination in the category of Outstanding Commercial.
As a producer, Tessellated is also no newcomer, alongside self-producing his own records, his production has been featured on records from Tobi Lou, Jada Kingdom, Walshy Fire (of Major Lazer) and most recently Spice’s album ’10’ (executive produced by Shaggy) which secured him a Grammy nomination for Best Reggae Album.
