At twenty, Shernice William thinks she has something lyrically beautiful to offer those who would lend her an ear -- metaphorically, of course. And despite acknowledging that the long path to her realizing her dreams has just begun, she is adamant about getting things done the right way. In fact, when it comes to her music, she says she is meticulous in ensuring that it all comes out one way – flawless.
“I started singing around age six and after graduating from Vide Boutielle Secondary School at fifteen, I began writing my own songs,” twenty-year-old Flawless said shyly in a recent interview. “I write, sing and kind of produce my songs in my home studio.”
The Bois Den resident’s music is receiving countless positive feedback from Facebook fans who just cannot comprehend that the self-described introvert packs such a potent musical punch. One of her songs, “Hold Yuh (One Man Mi Seh),” which samples Gyptian’s hit “Hold Yuh,” has sent Facebook residents crazy with bewilderment. Comments on the song include: “This is a song that should be on a CD for worldwide consumption,” and “Imagine it’s Heineken Green Synergy and da DJ just spins that track by Flawless! Whoa! Deh eh have enough security to control dat crowd!”
But flawless as she and her fans think she is, she admits that she is not resigned to letting all the overnight fame ruin her ultimate dream. She sees realizing that ultimate dream of being the next dancehall/hip-hop artiste as a one-song-at-a-time approach. And the songs are already being churned out by the teenager who is yet to hit any stage to perform to a crowd due to stage fright. For now, she says, hitting the karaoke joint in her ‘hood suffices.
So far, twelve songs have been recorded by her, including “Make Me Sweat,” “9 – 10,” “Baby I Know,” “I Wanna Give U,” “Forever In Love,” “All Alone,” and “Never Got The Chance To Say.”
Flawless readily admits that sooner or later, she will have to step up to the stage where the stage becomes her platform. For now, though, she says she is meticulously refining her craft to bring it to just where she wants it – flawlessly sound.
Flawless credits her brother Lincoln, as well as artistes Esteban, Mac 11, Private Six, Mustaphar, Nigel Nicholas, and Patrice Regis for all the assistance the render in making her dreams come true.
