This man should have been one of the richest Jamaican artists. And nowadays artists singing garbage and turn millionaires after 2 weeks .. ... SMH KMT . Plus dem good artists don’t even get little recognition fi dem work and talent and sacrifice in the business. Shame on us Jamaicans

Facts this guy did music for the Love like many others and intern got manipulated out of making any real generations wealth profits. No wonder so much good artist today are broke and always need public support when they have health issues. An example is major mackerel when he lost one is leg. The man could not even fund is medical bill without other artistes support.

Tears comes to my eyes when I remember what Jamaica was like in the late 1970s to the early 80s. I left in 1984 went back I'm 1996 but now I heard that it is too violent to go back there. Young men killing each other and robbing people who are from overseas. I miss my country but I hope the government will do something to help the people out there

There was an attempt to reopen J.O.S shortly after they closed it. But they already vandalized many of the buses . This caused the 1/4 million buses to remain on the Wharf for 3 & a 1/2 years They were the last set of buses that came for J.O.S ,that's why they all came painted Green & White . Miss seeing those J.O.S Buses.

Fun days of Reggae dancehall music!
