Mark describes himself musically with one word;"rOcStA" the acronym (Representing-Our-Cultural-Status-Through-Artistry).His music vibrates between people of different culture,languages,genres,adding his most deeply rooted influence from his homeland Jamaica as he calls it out."Im a UK born Jamaican"he will tell you.Mark is highly fluent in Spanish,credited to him by his part time living across the south border,Mexico.This adds yet another dimension to his musical expression;"ReggaeTon is oVeRaTed"he comments.With a handful of albums to his credit, including the all-Spanish "Reggae Latin Romance", The"roCsTa"has married the myriad of his many musical influences that have inspired him... Everything from Rock to Reggae to Salsa to Soul.Mark is chameleon-like in his ability to distill his many influences and now steers his music across a wide spectrum of Genres and Tempos.
