I Roy - Straight To The Heart

Along with U-Roy, Dennis Alcapone, and Big Youth, I-Roy was one of a quartet of DJs that reigned supreme over the Jamaican music scene during the early to mid-'70s.



Of the four, I-Roy was the most eloquent, and his toasts were littered with references to pop culture, from movies to historical figures.

He was also one of the most prolific, cutting scores upon scores of singles, and dozens of albums.

Although the DJ's sun began to set at the end of the decade, I-Roy continued to record sporadically up to the '90s, by then, though, his life had taken a tragic turn.
