Braveboy, born Marcus Braveboy, is a singer, songwriter and marketing consultant from Trinidad and Tobago. On this episode of Discover A Thriver, Braveboy discusses what inspired him to be an artist, how he ended up with a background in law, choosing the perfect collaboration and much more.
Braveboy began his musical journey in his native country alongside childhood friends, but he did not always see music as a possible career for him. After graduating with his Law degree, Braveboy began exploring a solo career and released his first single, ‘Lyrical Apology’, in 2010. 3 years later, he pioneered a new genre with Yung Rudd and Mevon Soodeen called TRAPSO, which encapsulated the music coming out of Trinidad and Tobago at the time.
Braveboy’s unique style and genre-dexterity led him to collaborate on tour with EDM producers Bad Royale, Sonny Denja, and Major Lazer. Now, in 2022, Braveboy is making major moves. His single ‘Slow Motion’ was featured on the recently-released Netflix series Selling Tampa, a show featuring an all-black female cast of real estate agents. This is the world fusion artist’s second Netflix feature in as many years, with his 2021 single ‘Clout Chaser’ being featured in the Fast and Furious franchise’s spin-off ‘Spy Racers’. His upbeat afro-trap sounds have, by his own admission, led to opportunities to collaborate not only with artists but also with global brands and television producers. Watch this space!
