Quotes

In a previous interview with Billboard.biz in Kingston, Busy Signal reflected on that time in his life. "In my late teens, early 20s I was moving around different states, Connecticut, Florida, Boston, New York and Texas, others, basically hustling. A lot of things come with being in the street, things that let us lose focus as young youths. I got in trouble with the law for different type of stuff and was locked up once on a conspiracy charge, then I got bail. After that I was like I just want to do music. I don't want the mixup, the confusion. Then I came here and I never try to go back to the US ever since. For me it work out good doing music, it give me a different view towards life."
"There is no limit to what we are looking at. We are at the baby stage. I give God thanks. It's a humbling experience. I hope this can open doors, not just for me, but for other Caribbean and Jamaican gospel musicians. If I represent well, then they will start looking at other people. This is definitely a good boost for my career. I am making giant steps and I thank God for this opportunity" he told THE STAR
