Reggae singer Indecka has joined the call of most Jamaicans who are demanding more jobs as the economy continues to flounder amid rising inflation and surging unemployment.

That is the reason his single, More Jobs, has become a street anthem in recent weeks.

"The song is getting a good deal of support from IRIE FM because the issue of jobs is topical. I look around and there are too many idle hands, the business leaders need to create industries to employ people, so they can get a fair day's wage for a fair day's work. Other people realise what I am saying and I appreciate all the support that I have been getting here in Jamaica. IRIE, Suncity Radio, Hitz, but the mixtape man them and selectors are giving me the most strength, we the people ah feel it," he said.

Indecka first jumped into the national consciousness late last year with Rice And Peas which hit a few local reggae charts. He worked on several local major stage shows based on the strength of this single.

But it is this latest radio hit which could be his breakout single that will establish him as a marquee name in reggae. More Jobs is on the critically acclaimed Digital Love rhythm which features heavyweights such as Chuck Fenda and Queen Ifrica.

"We are planning to shoot a video for the song this month, just based on the feedback inna the streets, the people ah feel the song, we are getting feedback from Africa, Australia and Europe through Facebook and Twitter," he said.

The artiste says his long-term goal is to impact the international music scene.

"What I want to achieve on a long-term basis is success on the international scene. I would like for music lovers outside of Jamaica to accept and embrace my work," Indecka said.

Born Chevol Grant, Indecka is a singer and songwriter. As a child being raised by his grandmother, Indecka endured many hardships and turned to music for motivation. Indecka started learning about music in primary school. He would later hone his musical chops as part of his church choir. By age 15, he was writing poetry and shortly after he began putting melody to his penned words.

In 2002, he met Michael 'Jah Mikes' Bell, the producer from Yahbell Entertainment, and recorded his first song Always Be There. He would later record with other producers, including Zuela, Julius 'Zege' Mitchell from Sweatboxx Productions and Jami Dread from Lyrical Wars Production.

The artiste said his stage name was given to him while he was in high school.

"My friends began calling me Indecka while I was in high school because my eyes were always red and gave the impression as if I was smoking. The only significance to the name is that it is a variation of Indicia, which is marijuana," he explained.

Now based in Portmore, St Catherine, Indecka said music has always been a part of him, hence his decision to pursue his musical interests. "Right now, ah just the heights mi waan reach with the music," he said.
