Honey B music – Happy For You

Honey B is a reggae artist based in the U.S. with an uplifting perspective and Caribbean style. Music was always present in her childhood as her grandfather was a multi-instrumentalist, recording artist, and composer. Both of her parents loved music, and Honey B’s childhood home was filled with the sounds of many genres. She began composing simple songs and poetry before entering primary school and had several pieces published in local anthologies as a youth.

Formative years spent frequenting the Bay Area music scene in California solidified her appreciation for reggae and world music. Honey B spent over a decade in the West Indies when her mother taught primary school there. Country life and island culture made a deep, lasting impression on her ideals and musicality. In Jamaica, giant home-made sound systems boomed from every hilltop and corner shop. The wit and wisdom of local proverbs, patois, and slang captured her interest and reverence.

Moving back to the States to help care for her grandmother, Honey B continued to compose rhymes and couplets about her personal feelings and observances, occasionally chanting them to entertain friends and family. An opportunity to perform with a renowned calypso artist at a small private gathering brought her skills to the stage. She joined forces with California producer Donaldo Gullatt to create several EPs, which became the springboard for her public persona as a lyricist.

Honey B’s positive connections with audiences, her candid online presence, and participation in lyrical contests and challenges have endeared her to her audience. Her cleverly crafted rhyme schemes and clean delivery uplift audiences from all generations and backgrounds. She has shared the stage with Half Pint, The Wailing Souls, Shinehead, Ranking Joe, Junior Demus, Dugsy Ranks, Jahdan Blakkamoore, and Pato Banton.
