Twenty-two-year-old Burris Anthony Griffith commonly known as “Limyt” is the newest artiste in the musical arena. Griffith who hails from “Cow Dam” (Angoy’s Avenue) in Berbice told the Buzz that there is no limit to his talent and determination.

Griffith started music at a young age, just as he entered secondary school with his fellow peers, “I started music since I was in Grade Seven [Form One] where I would have sing-offs in the streets and school for money …I always loved music, it never seems to come out of me. I try putting music behind but I always seem to put it first again.”
The young man, who admitted to being a little bit of a rebel in his school days, disclosed that his teachers and friends would always tell him the old Guyanese saying “you ain’t got no limit” whenever he would misbehave or say something a tad bit too out of line.

He stated that the name became his trademark and he soon adapted it with a whole new meaning and concept that there is no limit to what he can do with his talents.
He disclosed that he pursued a career with the Guyana Police Force in the earlier years of his adult life, however, music seemed to have a hold on him so he recently resigned as an officer and is now pursuing a career as a fulltime musician.

Surprisingly, he noted that being the new kid on the block is easier than what he thought it would be. Griffith stated with the lyrics of his songs he has been able to gain a whole other level of both respect and criticism from members of the public.

“Well as the new artist on the block everything comes easy these days even the hate and bad mind …. I mean my words have power and these days people listen when I speak and always hype me up and build a vibe. Whenever they see me it is like my life is on a different level and I ain’t meet nowhere yet,” he said.

The young artiste disclosed that he does not identify himself as a rapper or dancehall artist since he is still on his journey of figuring out what he wants his trademark sound and brand to be like. However, he noted that his inspiration come from some of the greats who have passed on leaving a legacy, like Tupac, Micheal Jackson as well as the current stars who have a continuous influence on the life of many young men like himself with their sounds.

Despite having it relatively easy when it comes to being recognised and having a decently large following, Griffith admitted that he is still faced with a few financial hurdles as he funds for everything himself, from studio time to producing as well as videography.

He stated that the greatest part of his musical journey is the overwhelming support he has received from his friends and family as well as persons who may just come across his music.

But one of his greatest achievements so far was recently being recognised by a Jamaican music producer who acknowledged his talent and potential to be alongside some of the greatest one day.
