From Waterhouse roots to global resonance – a voice you don’t ignore, a presence you don’t forget.
There are artists who follow trends, and then there are artists who embody culture. Lavisch is firmly the latter.
Born Brittney Marshall and raised in Waterhouse, Kingston, Lavisch comes from one of the most historically important breeding grounds in Jamaican music. This is the same soil that has produced legends, movements, and sounds that have shaped global reggae and dancehall culture. From that environment, Lavisch developed an instinctive, organic relationship with music from an early age — performing publicly from just 10 years old, driven by rhythm, feeling, and truth rather than formulas or trends.
What sets Lavisch apart immediately is her natural creative gift. She is known for not needing to write lyrics during her creative process — her music flows straight from emotion to microphone. That rare ability gives her songs an authenticity that listeners feel instantly. It’s no surprise that her work is often described as conscious, melodic, and deeply relatable — music with meaning, purpose, and soul.
Her name itself carries weight. The stage name Lavisch was gifted to her by none other than Bounty Killer, after an impressive live performance in Waterhouse — a co-sign that speaks volumes in Jamaican music culture.
Building momentum, track by track
Lavisch’s catalogue already reflects serious range and consistency. Early releases like Good Friends Hard To Find opened doors internationally, while collaborations with European powerhouse Jugglers Records helped introduce her sound to new audiences through tracks like Irresponsible and its official video.
She continued to sharpen her voice with standout projects such as Blessings, Grateful, Better Days, Nuh Reward, and More Money Pon More — each reinforcing her reputation as an artist who balances message with musicality. Her debut EP Vision marked a major milestone, performing strongly and cementing her position as one of Jamaica’s most promising female voices .
Since becoming an independent artist, Lavisch has only raised her standards further. Recent releases like Can’t Please People, Do Better, Escape, Real Things, and God N Time show an artist in full control of her direction — grounded, focused, and growing with intent.
Incoming fire: Little Lion Sound & Twin Frequency
What makes this moment especially exciting is what’s coming next.
Lavisch is set to release “Burn” with Berlin-based reggae sound system royalty Little Lion Sound — a crew globally respected for their militant roots reggae, dubplate culture, and uncompromising authenticity. Little Lion Sound are known for bridging Jamaican tradition with international energy, and Lavisch’s voice is a perfect match: conscious, powerful, and commanding. This collaboration is already shaping up to be one of those records that hits systems properly while carrying real lyrical weight.
On top of that, Lavisch is also dropping a track with UK-based production duo Twin Frequency on their Big Bubble Riddim. Twin Frequency — known for pushing boundaries and connecting underground culture with global audiences — bring a modern, forward-facing energy that complements Lavisch’s roots beautifully. The combination of her vocal authority with their heavyweight production is exactly the kind of cross-scene collaboration that moves reggae and dancehall forward, not sideways.
The bigger picture
Lavisch isn’t chasing hype — the hype is catching up to her.
Managed by Christopher Crooks (Dr. Love), she continues to build with purpose, intention, and clarity. Every release feels deliberate. Every collaboration adds to her story rather than diluting it. With a rapidly expanding international audience and key releases on the horizon, Lavisch stands firmly in that rare space where legacy and future collide.
This is not just another rising artist.
This is a voice from Waterhouse, amplified for the world.
And trust us — you’re going to hear her everywhere.
