About
A Jamaican reggae artist who began his career in the early 1980s. The hook of Damian Marley’s 2005 hit “Welcome to Jamrock” were sampled from Kamoze’s 1984 track “World-A-Music”. The opening line — “Out in the streets, they call it merther” — has been sampled in countless drum and bass and dubstep tracks. His dub version of “Here Comes the Hotstepper”, otherwise known as “I’m Steppin' it Hotter This Year”, released in 1993, remains a dancehall anthem.
