Iyaz

Iyaz (born 1987, in Tortola, British Virgin Islands), is a Caribbean singer and rapper signed to Beluga Heights Records. He was first contacted by Sean Kingston on MySpace, and after initially ignoring Kingston’s emails he finally replied, and was then signed a week later to Kingston’s Time Is Money Entertainment. Iyaz released his debut single Replay, which was co-written by Jason Derülo, in July 2009 and it reached #2 on the Billboard Hot 100. He will release his debut album, My Life, in 2010, and his latest single off the album is Solo.

Iyaz makes lilting reggae-infused R&B melodies inspired by island shorties, wireless romance, and the anguish of unrequited love. The 22-year-old singer, songwriter, and rapper cranks out undeniably pop-friendly tunes, like his first single Replay and his second single, Solo

Iyaz was born into a musical family and grew up on Tortola in the British Virgin Islands. Iyaz studied digital recording at New England Institute of Technology and recorded music. Island Girls found radio success in the Caribbean. Sean Kingston found Iyaz through his MySpace page in 2008. Kingston introduced him to producer J. R. Rotem. He released "Replay" in 2009, which peaked at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 and at #1 in many other territories, including the United Kingdom. His second single "Solo" was released in February 2010, and has so far peaked at #39 on the Billboard Hot 100. He also took part in "We Are The World 25 for Haiti".
