Trevor Brisport was born in Guyana, South America in a village by the name of LaGrange. He came from a musically inclined family and started listening to a variety of music at an early age. When he was still a teenager he moved to the United States of America, with his parents. He was heavily influenced by the strong reggae and hiphop culture that he was exposed to as a youth growing up in the North Bronx, Mount Vernon area.

His unique mix of cultural reggae, which he blends with hiphop, is also based in his early musical development. Reggae greats such as Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Gregory Isaacs, and Eddie Grant, along with such prominent hiphop artists as Whodini, Slick Rick, LL Cool J, and KRS-1 contribute a great deal to the style and background of Trevor. The influence of the early hiphop pioneers and reggae artists on Trevor structures the foundations and roots of his hiphop understanding. Combining these two engaging art forms, Trevor creates a distinct and unique style.

It is his aim to provide music that is positive, educational and uplifting. This is of particular interest to him because of his keen sense of integrity and strong sense of religion. The type of music he makes, he likes to refer to as Culrap or Culture Rap. He beliefs that entertainers have a responsibility to their young audiences they influence and to convey a message that is positive and instructional.

Religion plays a major role in Trevor's life and his music. Trevor, a very spiritual man, incorporates religion in all aspects of his life and music.

He is, as he spouts in one of his songs, "the crossover between the Christian and the Rasta." His Christian values helped formed his believes and is evident throughout his music.

He condemns the vices of modern society and of modern medicines, instead preferring to resort to the traditional values, natural herbal remedies valued by what he refers to as a "roots man." He accepts Jah as he sometimes refers God as the creator and one true divine Being. Although Trevor has Rasta beliefs, he conspicuously and intentionally does not wear dreads.

When asked about his reasons for not wearing dreadlocks as is expected of the stereotypical Rasta, Trevor responds adamantly. It is his belief that many people in society place too much emphasis on outward appearances. "Kids need to see that Rastafarian is not a fad, it's a way of life.", he says. "To be a Rasta is not about the clothes you wear, the dreads on your head, or your outward appearance. It's about what's in your heart and your soul.... My heart is pure Rasta."

Trevor has produced a 12" vinyl in 1995, with four songs. He has since produced his first album that is known as Music. It contains creative, zestful blend of exciting and informative mélange discussing the situations in the world.

Music is a reggae and rap collaboration of four new and exciting upcoming artists out of the Bronx/Mount Vernon area. Recording under the Bris Records label, is reggae performer extraordinaire Trevor Brisport. He is accompanied in this work with exhilarating rappers, Roy-LT, Thriller, and Classical Ace. The album sports a rich mix of hiphop with an assortment of diverse reggae styles. The effect is a music that is formulated with intelligent lyrics and rhythms to educate and entertain the younger generation.

Trevor writes and produces his own music, and it is his contention that music on the whole is therapeutic. On the track named for the album he sings, "music is what the world needs." Trevor feels that music can be used to communicate a basic positive message to heal many of the problems in the world today. He rigidly believes he is being inspired by God (whom he refers to as the father or Jah), writing music from his own life experiences and from what he sees happening in the world and society as a whole. He says, "In everything you do you have to ask the Father for guidance.", so he looks for guidance from the Father and states that he has much more music to put out in the future.
