Trev-Li: the artist who writes and produces his own bouyon records

Published October 20, 2026

Trev-Li is an artist whose catalogue circulates in the bouyon circuit of Dominica and whose credits tell a precise story: on “Firetruck (Bouyon)”, his single of March 9, 2025, as on “Cokay Weather”, his duet with Freddy released on November 11, 2025, the name that comes back for writing and production is Trevon Lee. This profile follows that documented thread, record by record, and states clearly what public sources do not yet say: no published biography, no published birthplace, and no confirmed official account.

Who Trev-Li is: a stage name, and a name in the credits

Trev-Li is the artist name under which his records appear. Behind that name, the official credits published by the platforms give a full name: Trevon Lee. On the “Firetruck (Bouyon)” song page, Trevon Lee is credited as songwriter and producer, while Trev Li appears as the performer. The same pattern repeats on “Cokay Weather”: Trevon Lee in the writing credits, alongside two other writers, and Trevon Lee alone on production. This profile therefore keeps to the verifiable fact: the artist who sings as Trev-Li writes and produces his own recordings, under the name Trevon Lee.

That double signature matters in today’s bouyon landscape. The genre was born in Dominica studios, and its current generation includes many performers carried by a regular producer. Trev-Li presents himself instead as a complete writer on his own records: lead voice, writing and production brought together under one name in the credits. That is a credits fact, not a slogan, and it can be checked record by record on the platform pages.

For the rest, the public file is thin, and this profile does not dress it up. No published artist biography, no interview found, and no birthplace or place of residence stated in the sources consulted during this research. Platforms file him under reggae or bouyon depending on the page, and his Shazam artist page places him next to Ebony Empress and Reo, two names from the Dominican scene. That neighbourhood locates his listening circuit; it is not a birth certificate, and this profile does not present it as one.

“Firetruck (Bouyon)”: the March 9, 2025 single

The record that carries the Trev-Li name is “Firetruck (Bouyon)”, released on March 9, 2025 as a single. The title itself shows its colours: the word bouyon sits in brackets, a genre label worn openly, in the manner of scene records that claim their belonging to the sound of Dominica. The track had passed 23,000 Shazam recognitions when this profile was researched, a modest count on a world scale but a real one for an independent bouyon single, and still rising: the song page notes that listeners most often discover it around the twenty second mark, the sign of a hook that lands on first listen.

The record also travels where bouyon really gets played: in the mixes. A carnival selection by DJ I AM SONICBOOM, published as a tracklist on Podtail, programmes Trev Li “Fire Truck (Clean)” among the season records, alongside Ridge, Reo, 1T1 and “What She Like” by Trixx Migos and Hussey. The “Clean” tag shows, in passing, that a cleaned version of the record exists for radio play and family mixes, a concrete detail in the life of a bouyon track that wants to spin beyond the clubs.

On this single, Trev-Li holds every role the credits distinguish: performer, songwriter and producer, the last two under the name Trevon Lee. No feature, no outside producer named. “Firetruck (Bouyon)” is therefore the artist complete calling card: a bouyon record written, produced and sung by the same person, released in spring 2025, at the heart of the season when Dominica prepares its carnival and DJs refresh their selections.

The catalogue: the records on his artist page

Around “Firetruck (Bouyon)”, the Trev-Li artist page on Shazam lines up a run of titles that draw a catalogue already substantial for an emerging name. It holds “Not Backing Down”, “In a Rental”, “Domino”, “Take You Home (Bouyon)”, “Big Batty Roll Call”, “W. T. M. A”, “Wood Alone” and “Somebody to Call My Own”. Two of those titles carry the word bouyon in the title itself, “Firetruck (Bouyon)” and “Take You Home (Bouyon)”, which anchors the label at the centre of the catalogue rather than at its edge.

The titles themselves sketch the repertoire themes: party and body for “Big Batty Roll Call”, romance for “Take You Home (Bouyon)” and “Somebody to Call My Own”, determination for “Not Backing Down”, everyday life and hustle for “In a Rental”. This profile does not review lyrics it has not checked line by line; it keeps to the published titles and the overall coherence: a bouyon and soca singer catalogue, built record by record, with no album announced in the sources consulted.

That catalogue counts ten verified records in the structured data on this page, including the Ebony Empress feature detailed below. For an artist with no published biography and no press found, the catalogue is the file: it proves regular activity, a claimed sound signature and an established presence on the listening platforms where the bouyon audience looks for its records.

The collaborations: Freddy, Ebony Empress and the “Cokay Weather” credits

The second documented headline record by Trev-Li is a duet: “Cokay Weather”, with Freddy, released on November 11, 2025. The published credits separate the roles carefully: Trev Li on lead vocals, Freddy as performer, and three named songwriters, Jason Adrien, Carlon Langlais and Trevon Lee. Production goes to Trevon Lee, and two guitarists are credited, Vladislav Chetvernya and Dauren Oleynik, a notable presence in a genre where live guitar is rare behind the keyboards. The song page also gives the tempo, 160 BPM, and the label: Trev Li, a release under his own name.

Freddy is not a random name in the circuit. He is an artist from the Dominican scene who turns up in the same DJ tracklists as Trev-Li, notably alongside Trixx and Beevo. The “Cokay Weather” duet therefore connects Trev-Li, through an official dated credit, to an established collaborator of the Dominica bouyon scene. The date matters too: November 2025, in the build up to the 2026 carnival season, when the island artists release their records for the fetes and the season competitions.

The other verified collaboration runs the other way: Trev-Li as the guest. His artist page flags the Ebony Empress record “KOKAYOKO”, where he appears as a feature. Ebony Empress is an established voice of the Dominican scene, a finalist in the Dominica Music Awards lists among other marks. Being invited onto her record, after inviting Freddy onto his, places Trev-Li inside the exchange network that keeps the scene alive: artists lend each other voices, hooks and audiences, one record at a time.

A writer-producer in a producer genre

Bouyon has been, from its beginnings, studio music as much as stage music. Founding bands such as WCK built the sound on keyboards and drum machines, and the bouyon soca branch was born behind a console. In that tradition, the Trev-Li profile, writer, composer and producer of his own records, is nothing exotic: it extends the figure of the Dominican studio musician who builds his sound before carrying it to the stage. What sets him apart is that the credits prove it in black and white, on his two best documented records.

That independence has a practical consequence the “Cokay Weather” credits show clearly: the record is released on the label Trev Li. No outside label named, no intermediate structure in the public metadata. The artist publishes under his own name, with his own writing and production credits. That is the business model of much of the new bouyon generation: independent releases, built for the platforms and for DJ mixes, where value is built record by record.

One shadow remains in this portrait, and it is stated openly. On public sources as they stand, nobody knows where Trev-Li was born, where he lives, or how long he had been recording before the records traced here. His Shazam artist page places him by neighbourhood, between Ebony Empress and Reo, and his collaborations tie him to the Dominican circuit; but a serious profile keeps a listening circuit distinct from an origin. If an official biography appears, this profile will be completed and dated, like every page on this site.

Hearing Trev-Li, and what this profile does not yet know

For listening, the path is simple: start with “Firetruck (Bouyon)”, the March 2025 single, then “Cokay Weather”, the November 2025 duet with Freddy, then the artist page records, from “Not Backing Down” to “Take You Home (Bouyon)”. Our bouyon playlist sets those records back inside the flow of Dominica new releases followed by Bouyon Shattaz, between the established band output and the rising generation.

Finally, this profile states its limits, because they are part of the record. No source consulted publishes Trev-Li birthplace, a biography, or a verified official social account: only the link to his Shazam artist page, opened and verified during this research, appears in the structured data on this page. The full name Trevon Lee comes from the official credits of his records, and from there only. No title, date or credit in this profile was completed by deduction.

The file can therefore be summed up in one sentence: an artist who writes and produces his records, a dated and counted bouyon single, a duet with Freddy, a feature for Ebony Empress and a catalogue of ten verified records. That is little for a legend, and already a lot for an emerging name: it is exactly the level of proof the new bouyon scene leaves behind it, and this site documents it as it stands.
