Shawn Ice takes it cool and calm
JUST two weeks after the release of his Cool and Calm EP, singjay Shawn Ice is pleased with its progress. He said that the mini-set has earned him new fans in New York and Florida.
“There is a song on it for everyone. A lot of thought was given to the song selection. I wrote these songs to last as I don’t want my music to fade away just months after its release,” said Shawn Ice, who lives in Washington, DC.
Wish, Jah Jah, Warrior and Come Yah are some of the songs on the seven-piece project which is produced by Kappah Records and distributed by VP Records.
Shawn Ice, whose given name is Shawn Thompson, spent his early years in St Mary where he attended Islington High School.
“I wanted to do music from an early age and I can recall writing up to 10 songs a day while living in St Mary. That was easy for me as I drew the inspiration from my family and surroundings,” the 23-year-old said.
Among his initial songs were Suh Me Live, Pass a Bottle and Happy fi Life.
