Early life
Hailing from the communities of Raymond District, Cornpiece Settlement, and Hayes Clarendon on the beautiful island of Jamaica, Reinard Bryan was born on October 14th 1988. Life was not without obstacles for the artist growing up after losing his mother at the age of 2. When asked about the loss, he expressed “ I always asked why it had to happen.” Though not having the nurturing and guidance of his mother, Reinard did not allow this childhood tragedy to dictate his future and soon came to the realization that everything does not need to be understood in the moment as life is a journey and the experiences we endure good or bad will present itself one day.
