It was self-evident that Jizza (born Julien Johnathan Joshua Werleman), better known back in the day as Johnny, was always very fascinated and driven by music – particularly Hip-Hop and Caribbean music. Being from the beautiful and Happy Island of Aruba, Jizza was introduced to Caribbean music at an early age, as he used to tag along with his mother to go to Caribbean parties as a young teenager. His love for Caribbean music was also very much influenced by Claudius Phillips who was managed by his aunt Edwina Werleman and was crowned Calypso- and Roachmarch King on thirteen unique occasions.
