Pryhmex: the least documented voice of the Up Next Bouyon Cypher

Published October 20, 2026

Pryhmex is an emerging bouyon artist from Dominica, known so far through a single collective record, but a record that matters: the “Up Next Bouyon Cypher, Vol. 1” by Trilla-G, released on October 2, 2026 on Still Trill Entertainment, number one on Apple Music Top Songs chart in Dominica and seen 83,000 times on YouTube in one week according to BuzzDA. BuzzDA, the Dominican outlet that covered the project in two articles, gives his full name: Ajahlie Ettienne. On the record he shares one microphone with G’z Up, Ras B, Avatar Omish, Don Lash and Pa Pel. This profile is deliberately honest about its scope: no verified solo record, no biography, no confirmed official account. It documents what exists, the cypher, a Ti Vilaj Kwéyòl 2026 festival slot, and a spelling question, Pryhmex or Prymex, settled here in favour of the platform form.

Who Pryhmex is: a full name, and almost nothing else public

Pryhmex is one of the six emerging artists Trilla-G brought together on the first volume of his Up Next Cypher, a platform created, in the project own framing as reported by BuzzDA, to give the next generation of Dominican artists a chance to be heard, seen and celebrated. In the launch article published by BuzzDA on October 8, 2026, each cypher artist is introduced with a full name in brackets: G’z Up is Phillip Martin, Don Lash is Cadeem McPherson, Pa Pel is Loic Arius, Avatar Omish is Omari Dayl James, Ras B is Bayna Bellot, and Pryhmex is Ajahlie Ettienne. At the time of this research, that is the only public identification of the artist.

Everything else in the usual portrait is missing, and this profile does not fill it in. No source consulted gives his age, his village or district of origin in Dominica, his path before the cypher, or the meaning of his stage name. No solo interview with Pryhmex was found: in the long interview BuzzDA devoted to the project on October 12, 2026, it is Trilla-G who speaks, about the platform, the choice of artists and the next generation, never the artists one by one. Pryhmex therefore exists publicly, for now, as a voice on a collective record and a name on two festival documents. That is little, and it is exactly what the Dominican scene produces every season: voices that first appear in a group, before, sometimes, stepping out alone.

The cypher context helps place that appearance. Trilla-G told BuzzDA that most of the artists in the video had already approached him at some point about working together or getting a chance to showcase their talent, and that the idea of a bouyon cypher had been on his mind for some time. The founding gathering took place on Saturday September 28, 2026. Pryhmex therefore belongs to a precise circle: the young artists who asked one of the established names of current bouyon for a platform, and received it in the most demanding form rap offers, one verse each, on the same beat, with no safety net.

The cypher: one beat, six voices, and the Still Trill machine

The record that carries Pryhmex is titled “Up Next Bouyon Cypher, Vol. 1”. It is credited to Trilla-G, featuring G’z Up, Ras B, Avatar Omish, Don Lash, Pa Pel and Pryhmex, and it was released on October 2, 2026 on Still Trill Entertainment, Trilla-G label. Production is by Shane Massicott of Kwib La Beats, and ThaWizZarD, full name Cecil Joseph Jr., handled the keys as well as the mixing and mastering. BuzzDA describes an almost ten minute production built on the classic cypher format: a single instrumental, with artists taking turns at the microphone to show their talent and their distinct personalities.

The video, shot at The Lot Bar & Grill, was filmed and edited by Shane St. Claire of Sois Génial Multimedia, and directed by Trilla-G with his manager and creative collaborator Tridel “Wins” Edwin. The official video listing carries the same credits and links out to the Apple Music and Spotify pages of the record. BuzzDA warned in its first article that some lyrics in the cypher contain adult language and mature themes, and advised viewer discretion: the detail matters, because it sets the tone of the project, street level bouyon, unfiltered, built for artists presenting themselves exactly as they are.

On method, the BuzzDA interview gives two useful precisions. Trilla-G says the recording ran seamlessly, with every artist making himself available on the set date, and that the verse order was finally left exactly as the artists recorded it, after the team had considered reshuffling it. Neither BuzzDA article describes Pryhmex verse in particular, his style or his place in the running order, and this profile does not either: assigning an artist a flow or a standout moment that the sources do not name would be invention, not music journalism. What the sources establish is his presence, verified by two articles, by the official video listing and by the credits of the record.

The reception: a national number one for a next generation record

The reception of the cypher went beyond a routine collective release. In its interview published on October 12, 2026, BuzzDA opened with two figures counted one week after release: first place on Apple Music Top Songs chart in Dominica, and 83,000 YouTube views in one week. Trilla-G said the response had exceeded his expectations, and that his starting intention was simply for people to pay attention to the artists and show them some love. For an almost ten minute record, with no single chorus and carried by six names the wider public was discovering, those figures describe a real scene moment, not a quiet drop.

What followed also shows how such a platform converts, or does not, into careers. BuzzDA names G’z Up as the breakout artist of the cypher so far, with a “Ya, Ya Ya” hook that became the most recognisable moment of the record, followed by a solo record, “Fix Up”, released on Saturday October 10, 2026 as an extended version of his verse. No equivalent move is documented for Pryhmex in the sources consulted: no announced solo record, no verse spun off as a single, no individual coverage. That contrast is part of the file, and it is common in cyphers: the platform is collective, the breakthrough is individual and uneven.

Trilla-G confirmed to BuzzDA that a second volume will come, without giving a date, adding that artists and producers were already reaching out about the follow up. Whether Pryhmex appears on it, or first releases a record under his own name, is the open question of this profile. In the meantime, his name stays attached to the founding document of the platform, and our bouyon playlist follows this Dominican next wave record by record.

Ti Vilaj Kwéyòl 2026: a festival date under the other spelling

The second public trace of Pryhmex is a festival bill. On October 18, 2026, the Ministry of Tourism and Discover Dominica added nine names to the confirmed artist list of Ti Vilaj Kwéyòl 2026, the Creole village of the independence celebrations, held at the Botanic Gardens in Roseau from October 19 to 22, 2026 for its fifth anniversary, under the theme Tout Biten Domnik. Among those additions is a five name collective, billed as such: Gz Up, Don Lash, Avatar Omish, Papel and Prymex. It is the core of the cypher, without Ras B, called up as a group for the village stage.

The day by day schedule, published by Dominica Weekly from the Ministry official poster, places the Prymex spelling on Thursday October 22, 2026, grand finale day, in the 4:26 PM slot, on a line shared with Reo and Faithii and with Trilla G, before Asa Bantan at 5:43 PM and the closing set by Shelly and Signal Band at 7 PM. For an artist with no verified solo record, that programme line is a career fact in its own right: it puts him on the national cultural stage of Creole week, in the direct slipstream of his cypher mentor, in front of the independence celebrations audience.

That bill also settles the name question in its own way. The festival documents write Prymex, without the h after the r. The platforms and the music press write Pryhmex: it is the spelling in the official title of the cypher video, in both BuzzDA articles, and the form this site keeps as the main spelling. A third form, Prhymex, circulates in the titles of videos about the cypher. Three spellings for an artist with a single record: the situation is ordinary in Dominican bouyon, where names settle first by ear and on posters before they stabilise on platforms, but it is worth flagging, because a search under the wrong form makes half the traces disappear.

What the file does not say: the limits, stated

This profile ends with its limits, because they are the most useful information it can give about Pryhmex today. No solo record by the artist was verified on the platforms consulted during this research: no single, no feature outside the cypher, no artist page of his own on the streaming services opened. No official social media account was confirmed by direct opening, and none is therefore linked in the structured data of this page. No biography, no official photograph and no individual interview were found.

Two practical consequences follow for the reader. First, anything circulating elsewhere about Pryhmex without a source, an age, a precise origin, a style described in superlatives, should be read with caution: as of October 20, 2026, the verifiable public file fits into one collective record, one festival date and a full name given by BuzzDA. Second, this profile is built to grow: if the artist publishes a solo record, an artist page or a biography, the page will be completed and dated, like every page on this site.

In the meantime, the listening is simple and short: the “Up Next Bouyon Cypher, Vol. 1”, in full, because that is where, and only where, the voice of Pryhmex is documented, alongside those of Trilla-G, G’z Up and Ras B, whose profiles this site publishes in the same wave. The context of the genre is read on our bouyon soca page, which recalls the lineage of the sound, from the bouyon soca started by Dada in 2003 in Dominica, per the first hand testimony of Sean “Smokiller” Francis, to the 2026 next generation this cypher puts on stage.
