Born Garfield Delano Spence  Konshens never actually planned a career in music, apart from enjoying the vibe it gave him growing up. He was just like the average Jamaican youngster, "at that time it was just ball game, school and girls, I never saw music as a profession" he vividly recalls (laughs).

A resident of Sherlock a garrison community located in the Duhaney Park area of Kingston, Konshens began showing a commitment in music pretty late, 2005 to be specific. Back then the now DJ was just another curious stranger who use to hang out with his older brother Delus (Sojah)released an album (Sons of Jah) and get another Japan tour, this time for 2 weeks".

Realizing he was on to something good Konshens began making steps in the right direction. Not a producer of beats himself he hooked up with the father and son team of Cash Flow to compose tracks as he penned lyrics to launch his own solo career, a move he says was all apart of the grand plan. "When we came back from tour we sat down and said that we wanted to attack it from a local stand point so me and Delus (Sojah) say we were gonna try solo careers and see what happened.
I worked at the National Public Health Lab and was pulling down a 20 pack ($ 20,000) but then its like I made a business decision because I was cutting dub plates for the same 20 pack in two minutes doing something I just love doing so I thought why not do some more tracks and make money at the same time".

As with most success stories there was always someone that believed from day one in the artist and Konshens found that loyalty and support from a long time friend who played the role of his A&R at the time, shopping his work to well known producers while keeping him focused on the bigger picture. "Me and Carlington Wilmot (Photographer / Website Manager) use to hit the road and one day him tell me sey him have a link a Natural Bridge Records. We went there and I spoke to Tamra Recas and she gave me a riddim and I voiced a song and they liked it. From there I was introduced to Mark Pinnock the C.E.O and we spoke back and forth for a while until we came to an agreement that was like the turning point for me"..
