More About Prophecy Izis
Prophecy Izis is a recording artist of real authentic reggae music. He sings to teach and uplift the people. His deep cultural lyrics and positive feel reggae beats are sure to make you feel great. Born Melvin Claude Leslie on December 29th 1975, Prophecy Izis is from Westmoreland, Jamaica.

From the age of 9, Melvin Claude sang in churches, schools and community events. Both his parents were members of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, which made cultural events and traditions a very important part of his upbringing. His music was greatly influenced by reggae icons such as Joseph ‘’Culture’’ Hill, Peter Tosh, Bob Marley and Burning Spear and more. Rastafarianism became more and more important for Melvin Claude from reading Marcus Garvey, Martin Luther King and Ily Selassie I speeches. That led him to move away from his parents’ home to the hills where he could ‘’livicate’’ himself to his new order, the Bobo Ashanti. Because of his spirituality his Rastafari brethrens and sistrens started to call him Ras Izis,because izis mean praises.
 
Inspired musically, he wrote his first song "Bloody War," friends then changed his name to Prophecy Izis. That song was recorded as his 1st single in 2001 under ‘’Name Brand Production’’ in  Savanna-la-Mar Westmoreland, Jamaica. Prophecy Izis has performed in many events in Jamaica, like Tribute to Peter Tosh and Vybzfm concert with artists such as Richie Stevens, Warrior King, Tarrus Riley, Chezidek and Lutan Fyah.
