Biography

Just like his contemporaries Little John and Little Harry, Billy Boyo was still in his teens when he emerged in the early eighties. At that time a new era in Jamaican music had begun as roots reggae had become dancehall. Then one of the most prolific and influential producers in dancehall music was the late Henry “Junjo” Lawes. He more or less launched dancehall as a fully developed musical style and records on his “Arrival” and “Volcano” labels dominated the dancehall market for years.
