Artist Bio

In 1963 a composer and music lecturer once asserted that, “This will be our reply to violence: to make music more intensely, more beautifully, more devotedly than ever before.” Fast forward to 2022 and “Inspiyah” by name of Lionel Bernard has decided to use music to create a more potent call to action: "What Are You Fighting For", "Let's Join Hearts", “Badness Fi Done”. These are some of the latest motivational projects from the mid-30’s performer, a fusion of dancehall and reggae with a trademark message of empowerment and progression, the difference that this current generation needs.

Born and raised in the capital city of Kingston, in a Christian setting, a college degree was attained in the field of Hospital and Tourism Management. The foray into the making of music has both a professional and recreational background: since his early years singing, performing in the theatre and playing instruments at primary school to more recently whilst working as a host and producer at Newstalk 93FM. This led to acquiring the skills to play the guitar, the saxophone, and myriad instruments on his own.

Delving into promotion and social media realms added the technical skills necessary to make this young performer an anomaly: an artiste that is trained, experienced in the business side of things and talented, a trifecta in our local Creative and Cultural industry. Exhibiting the dedication needed to make it in this industry. Inspiyah maintains a full-time job in the Information Technology arena whilst carefully honing his craft, promoting his brand and designing his ascent to the likes of his own inspirations such as Bob Marley, Agent Sasco and Chronixx.

Positivity is his key, and in these times lovers of our culture will need to be truly inspired and Inspiyah is here to answer that call.
