Iyaz


Keidran Jones, better known as his stage name, Iyaz, is a Virgin Islander singer signed with the record label Beluga Heights Records. His debut hit single "Replay" reached number two on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2009.

Iyaz was born into a musical family and grew up in Tortola in the British Virgin Islands. Iyaz studied digital recording at New England Institute of Technology and recorded music. Island Girls found radio success in the Caribbean. Sean Kingston found Iyaz through his MySpace page in 2008. When Iyaz first saw the messages from Kingston in his MySpace inbox, he didn't believe it was really Sean Kingston. But after receiving three more messages, Iyaz thought he'd better respond and later signed a recording contract with Time Is Money/Beluga Heights, a record label owned by Warner Bros. Records. Kingston introduced him to producer J. R. Rotem. He released "Replay" in 2009, which peaked at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 and at #1 in many other territories, including the United Kingdom. His second single "Solo" was released in February 2010, and has so far peaked at #32 on the Billboard Hot 100. He also took part in "We Are The World 25 for Haiti". His debut album, Replay is due to be released December 31st 2010, and he also has a collaboration with Charice in the single entitled "Pyramid".

He is best known for Replay

Shawty's like a melody in my head
That I can't keep out
Got me singin' like
Na na na na everyday
It's like my iPod stuck on replay, replay-ay-ay-ay (2x)

Remember the first time we met
You was at the mall wit yo friend
I was scared to approach ya
But then you came closer
Hopin' you would give me a chance

Who would have ever knew
That we would ever be more than friends
We're real worldwide, breakin all the rules
She like a song played again and again

That girl, like somethin off a poster
That girl, is a dime they say
That girl, is a gun to my holster
She's runnin through my mind all day, ay

Shawty's like a melody in my head
That I can't keep out
Got me singin' like
Na na na na everyday
It's like my iPod stuck on replay, replay-ay-ay-ay (2x)

See you been all around the globe
Not once did you leave my mind
We talk on the phone, from night til the morn
Girl you really changed my life
Doin things I never do
I'm in the kitchin cookin things she likes

We're real worldwide, breakin all the rules
Someday I wanna make you my wife
That girl, like somethin off a poster
That girl, is a dime they say
That girl, is the gun to my holster
She's runnin through my mind all day, ay

Shawty's like a melody in my head
That I can't keep out
Got me singin' like
Na na na na everyday
It's like my iPod stuck on replay, replay-ay-ay-ay (2x)

I can be your melody
Oh girl that could write you a symphony
The one that could fill your fantasies
So come baby girl let's sing with me
Ay, I can be your melody
Oh girl that could write you a symphony
The one that could fill your fantasies
So come baby girl let's sing with me

Ay, na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na
Shawty got me singin
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Now she got me singin

Shawty's like a melody in my head
That I can't keep out
Got me singin' like
Na na na na everyday
It's like my iPod stuck on replay, replay-ay-ay-ay (2x)
