John Mckenzie who performs under the name I-Shenko is
born in the city of Kingston, Jamaica on the 20th of May,
1984. He grew up in the parish of St. Catherine, Jamaica
from Spanish Town to Portmore city and was brought up in
somewhat of a musical environment, hearing his mother
humming melodies of her favorite songs and his elder sister
singing at church, school concerts and weddings.

He too played a part in church and school choirs and enjoyed writing poems, songs and short stories. Growing up he always wanted to pursue a career in the medical field but all this changed when he recorded his first demo while in 9th grade at the St. Jago High School in Spanish Town when he was introduced to the Kingswell Recording Studio by a friend who had the same musical aspirations. Although not dismissing his education, which he believes is of utmost importance in everyone?s day to day living (young and old) he decided to pursue a career in music which disappointed many family members but had full support of his mom and
sister his, who are his number one fans.
