Music has been his life since his youth, Zacharri states, "From the age of 4 I was always singing for my mum. When it was dinner time,I would make up a song about dinner time. And I always told her that I will be a singer one day, to which she would just laugh. At the age of ten I wrote my first song and perform it in school and mash up the place. From then I continued, until in the year 2000 I recorded my first track professionally and I have never looked back.
Music was always inside of me, like Jah put it there. My mission now is to bring it into the ears of all people and uplift their souls, share messages and bring positive vibrations".
