The Four Aces asked me if I'd like to sing with them as they didn't really have a lead singer.

Sometimes I'd hear things on other people's records and I say I wanted it on my records, but Leslie Kong said, no, it wasn't right and that it wasn't my style.

I was born in St. Andrew's and raised in Kingston then I attended the Alpha Boy's school.

I like to write songs about what's happening, what I see around me and what I hear. Everyday life. Someone may be talking to me and I may take it from that.

Things will get better if you just hold out long enough.

I don't write about the same thing every time, everyday, different things are happening out there and if you take the time to look around, you can see that, then you can put it all together and tell the story.

So, after school, I needed to learn a trade and started to work as a tailor.
