MESHAK Grant, popularly known as ‘Hamza Boss,’ has his mind set on achieving great things for himself and his homeland in the music business, vowing to do all in his power to ‘put Guyana on the map’ and become the number one artiste representing this country.
The 25-year-old former student of St. Mary’s Secondary School has been part of the music industry for over three years and credits his break-through song, “Gunman Town” for his success.
In an interview with Buzz this week, he reflected on the song for a moment, recalling how it became popular after Jamaican dancehall artiste, Skeng, visited Guyana some time ago. When he arrived in the country, Meshak made a video dedicated to the artiste without knowing that it would go viral in a short space of time.
Certain figures on the music scene saw the video and Meshak was invited to the Skeng show with VIP treatment. After the popular shooting at the show, Meshak used the experience to write “Gunman Town.”
“Along with Gunman Town, the voice behind the Molly team is none other than myself. I have over six tracks available on all social media platforms, which is creating hype in the industry,” he shared.
Meshak, with over 14,000 followers on Tik Tok, has also shared the stage with Miss Vanessa Bling, Miss Pamputtau, Mr. Demarco, Mr. Kraff, and many other foreign and local performers.
“Everyone has been inquiring about my 2024 intentions. My main goal this year is to take my music career to the next level by collaborating with various musicians, both locally and globally,” he said.
Meshak has been working “non-stop” on new music that he plans to release this year. “Look out for my new single, ‘Scooby School Bus,’ along with many other songs,” he disclosed.
Speaking about his love and passion for music, he shared: “It’s a connection to my soul. It gives me joy. Music can make you release your pain.”
He is hoping that Guyanese will show more attention and love to their local artistes. “When I go out the country, I see the value of an artiste. Guyanese have a foreign mentality; they don’t value local artistes and even the artistes don’t value themselves. People in Guyana need to start valuing what people are doing and show more respect.”
