A former student at Kingston's (now defunct) Fox Drama School, Mr. Lexx is an actor who has appeared in several plays and earned a Best Actor award in 1992. Mr. Lexx also joined the popular dance troupe Squad One but for the past seven years he has pursued a career as a deejay whose stage performances are enhanced by his experience in dance and theater.[3]Mr. Lexx first displayed his deejaying skills in 1992 at the popular Sunday night dances held in Kingston's Harbor View area, featuring the Super Dee sound system. Representatives from The New York-based label Natural Bridge Records heard Lexx's impressive lyrical flow and brought him to Kingston's Mixing Lab recording studios where the 16-year-old recorded his first single, "Own A Home", his tribute to women who aren't dependent on men for financial support. Subsequent single releases including "Unification" and "Ghetto Man Slam" yielded little fanfare for the aspiring deejay but he persevered and in 1997 his efforts were rewarded with three hit singles, "Runaway Train" (X-Rated label), "Fade Away" (2-Hard Records) and "Boogie Woogie" for producers Steely & Clevie.Lexx's popularity lagged in Jamaica due to the time he spent abroad so he returned home in 1998 and reestablished himself through a series of stage shows, utilizing is acting and dancing capabilities to support his microphone skills at Kingston's largest annual dancehall concert, Sting in December 1998 and the event marked a turning point in Mr. Lexx's career.

Patrick valued Paul's opinion and as such sidelined the popularity garnered from the tape. After struggling with his musical identity for the next seven years , it was Patrick's son's mother, who in 2003, suggested that he record another Stir it up volume as this was who he Truly was . Heeding her advice Patrick came up with volume 4 “The Crucifixion of the Ghetto”. This was a blend of humor and social awareness that employed a balance of hardcore street smarts and undiluted intellect by collaborating the imitation of a foul mouthed Mutabaruka and a modified version of Ian Boyne; these two voices would represent both sides of the social divide. Patrick would again ask Paul to play famous Demus and join him as a duo he would call Twin of Twins. Though Patrick is the writer of the two ,his brother's input and opinion is vital to his creative process as paul would overtime grow more comfortable with this art.

However, for Advance, the intimacy of the music industry occurred at age 8 when his uncle Bounty Killer entered the business. Bounty Killer has received the accolade as being a legend and a dancehall icon and is the founder of The Alliance Group of which Advance is a member. The Alliance consists of entertainers such Mavado, Elephant Man, Busy Signal and Wayne Marshall; these artists were actually recruited by Bounty Killer and all of whom have become world renowned entertainers. Jamaican critics have labelled Bounty Killer “as having an eye for great entertainers that not only shine but escalade to becoming spectacular artists”.In 2005, Advance was given the opportunity to go on the United States tour with his uncle. And, it was there that this young man decided his destiny. However, upon his return to Jamaica, Advance's mother had other plans for him as she envisioned him as being an electrician. Hence, right after high school he was sent to the HEART Academy in Portmore, St. Catherine to learn electrical engineering. Being a son who was bent on pleasing his mother,Advance obediently went to HEART.However, to execute his own dreams he spoke to his grandmother Ivy Williams (Miss Ivy) and with her help and his lunch money Advance attended vocal lessons after school and visited the studio, “to gain experience”, he said. Miss Ivy was very encouraging, as she said that if she had not facilitated her son's dreams then the world would not have gotten the privilege to enjoy a Bounty Killer. For this reason “I open my heart and my pocket to Advance”, Miss Ivy said.When asked about his music and how it has moulded him as a person Advance said “my music is very personal, it speaks to who I am as a person: loving, jovial, spontaneous, and creative, with positive messages all of which depicts my true life experiences which included those persons to whom I have experienced them with. The greatest reward for me is to see the reaction towards my music, the smiles, the tears and the joy that my music has bestowed on people, all over the world”.
