That boy, Garfield Gregory Scarlett, now known to fans internationally as <strong>KrazyBonez<\/strong>, was born in 1977 in the Maybole District. Even at age three, it was clear music was his destiny.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>Growing up as the eldest of three boys, KrazyBonez was drawn early to the sounds of Bob Marley and Peter Tosh, mimicking their cadence and consciousness. His childhood was steeped in the raw, unfiltered music culture of rural Jamaica\u2014street dances, sound clashes, and community gatherings where music was a unifier. By his teenage years, he had become one of the baddest MCs in his district, earning respect for his energy and commanding voice.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe name Krazy Bones came from school,\u201d he recalls with a grin. \u201cI was always full of vibes\u2014always pushing boundaries.\u201d That energy would become the heartbeat of everything he touched.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>Garfield\u2019s journey took him beyond the Caribbean shores. After time in Montego Bay and Corville Gardens, he migrated first to the United States, then to Canada\u2014bringing with him the heartbeat of Jamaica\u2019s sound system culture. There, he would plant new roots, blending the island\u2019s musical traditions with a global vision.<\/p>\n<p>As a selector, MC, and sound system owner, KrazyBonez founded Venjahanze Intl Sound, a living tribute to his heritage and family line. His clashes were fierce, his presence commanding. Over the years, he earned a stack of championship titles, including <strong>Baddadon Canadian Champion (2019)<\/strong>, <strong>Sound Ago Dead Champion (New York)<\/strong>, and <strong>Dub Fi Dub Champion (Canada)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>But music wasn\u2019t his only venture. Settled in Brampton, Ontario, Garfield became the proud owner of <strong>Fresh Kut Barber Salon<\/strong>, a thriving community hub where artistry meets brotherhood. \u201cIt\u2019s more than a business,\u201d he says. \u201cIt\u2019s a way to give back\u2014to empower others and keep the culture alive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, his entrepreneurial spirit led to the birth of <strong>Venjahanze Music Production<\/strong>, co-founded with his daughter, <strong>Jaeyla Jewel Scarlett<\/strong>, bridging generations through creativity and mentorship. The platform became a launchpad for emerging talent, fueled by his vision to uplift others through music.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11445 alignleft lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/sandbox.reggaenorthca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/KrazyBonez-Pic-1-213x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"188\" height=\"265\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/sandbox.reggaenorthca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/KrazyBonez-Pic-1-213x300.jpeg 213w, https:\/\/sandbox.reggaenorthca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/KrazyBonez-Pic-1-727x1024.jpeg 727w, https:\/\/sandbox.reggaenorthca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/KrazyBonez-Pic-1-768x1082.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/sandbox.reggaenorthca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/KrazyBonez-Pic-1.jpeg 1080w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 188px) 100vw, 188px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 188px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 188\/265;\" \/>After years behind the console producing for others, Garfield faced trials that tested his resolve. Betrayal and disappointment from ungrateful artists could have ended his journey\u2014but instead, they became fuel. In his lowest moments, he turned to faith. \u201cI cried out to God,\u201d he says, \u201cand He gave me direction\u2014to step into the light as an artist myself.\u201d And so, KrazyBonez the performer was born.<\/p>\n<p>KrazyBonez\u2019s latest single, <strong>\u201cSame Man,\u201d<\/strong> was released on <strong>September 18th<\/strong> and is quickly making waves, gaining attention from listeners around the world. He is currently working on the official music video for <em>Same Man<\/em>, which is scheduled for release on <strong>October 25th<\/strong>. In addition, KrazyBonez is developing a <strong>six-song EP<\/strong>, with plans to release each track as a single throughout <strong>2026<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>His discography\u2014<strong><em>\u2018Without Bail,\u2019 \u2018Universal Love,\u2019<\/em><\/strong> and <strong><em>\u2018Graveyard Shift\u2019<\/em><\/strong>\u2014reflects his spiritual depth and social awareness. Each song is a chapter of perseverance, exploring life\u2019s struggles and triumphs with poetic honesty.<\/p>\n<p>In collaboration and production, he has delivered standout tracks such as \u2018<strong><em>Life Lessons,\u2019 \u2018Revelation,\u2019 \u2018All My Love,\u2019 \u2018Daniel,\u2019<\/em><\/strong> and <strong><em>\u2018No Holding Back\u2019<\/em><\/strong> with Ras Attitude. He has co-produced hits like <strong><em>\u2018Iron\u2019<\/em><\/strong> by Patexx and contributed to chart-topping sound system anthems that have reverberated through dancehalls worldwide.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>KrazyBonez\u2019s artistry draws deeply from reggae\u2019s rebel roots\u2014the consciousness of Peter Tosh, the spirituality of Garnet Silk, the activism of Lucky Dube, and the raw energy of Burning Spear and Bob Marley. Yet, his global perspective finds resonance in the messages of Michael Jackson, whose universal themes of love and unity mirror his own.<\/p>\n<p>Today, KrazyBonez stands as a multi-faceted force: Founder &amp; CEO of Venjahanze Music Production, Co-CEO alongside his daughter, business owner, selector, producer, MC, and artist. But beyond titles, he remains a vessel for music\u2014an embodiment of resilience and authenticity.<\/p>\n<p>From the hills of St. Elizabeth to the stages of North America, KrazyBonez continues to carry the torch for reggae\u2019s spirit: defiant, soulful, and deeply human.\u00a0 As he often says, \u201cMusic is energy\u2014and I\u2019m just the vessel.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201d In the lush hills of St. Elizabeth, Jamaica, a young boy once marched through the yard with two sticks in hand\u2014his first drumsticks, his first microphone.
