Her journey officially began in 2009 when she launched her first music video and single “Defend It”. Since then she performed for the Miss National Carnival Queen Pageant 2010 and at Moon Splash in Anguilla. According to the critics Rolensha is “Energetic”, “Creative” and “Confident”. Her electrifying performance is not to be missed!
On October 11th 1990, hidden deep within the exotic Caribbean on the twin island federation of St. Kitts & Nevis, Rolhensha T’ Keyah Henry, affectionately known as “Rolhy” was born. At the tender age of four Rolhy led a glittering troupe of preschoolers in a National Carnival parade through the capital streets of Basseterre which climaxed with her introducing the troupe to the massive crowd. The overwhelming response from the adoring crowd ignited her love for the performing arts and the rest is history.
Rolensha joined the Edgar T. Morris Primary School Choir at 3rd grade and currently leads the Youth Choir at her church. During her years at the Cayon high school she played the lead single tenor steel pan for the school’s official steel orchestra which later became the Pantastics Steel Orchestra. She was always remembered for her high energy and enthusiasm performing and winning three consecutive national steel band competitions with her group. Their dynamic performances earned them a spot on the 2008 St. Kitts Music Festival where they performed before a massive crowd.
Music is the fuel that drives her throughout her entire day from the shower, to the street to the stage. Rolhy uses any opportunity to sing to her family, friends, in church or to any passers by. Her capacity to perform is undeniable and her ability to construct her own lyrics and deliver them in such a unique way can be partly attributed to her background in debating. Since her High School years she often represented her school in effective speaking competitions and debates. During her second year at the C.F.B. College she was on the schools debating team and earned the coveted title of Best Overall Speaker for the entire competition scoring an impressive 193 point out of a possible 200.
Many of her inspirations have come from personal experiences and she often attributes her love for music to her love for performing. This young musician also looks up to great artistes like Bob Marley and Michael Jackson. She admires the way they were able to reach the hearts of so many people across so many geographical and sociological boundaries. Rolensha aspires to achieve no less than these icons have and she is ready to make her mark and overcome any obstacle by seeing and embracing the silver lining.
