RIP Cocoa Tea.

Will never forget when this man started his set at a GT Taylor Christmas Extravaganza in the 90s with a Christmas Carol that had the place in a Frenzy.

No fact

He had cancer since 2019 but pneumonia and heart failure hastened the end early this morning.
Too damn young.

1st song I heard was Lost My Sonia while walking past a house.

Was familiar with the riddim, but up to that point, had only heard the likes of Yellowman, Toyan, Josie, Nicodemus and such like, voicing on it.

To hear that smooth voice over that hardcore riddim was novel.

I was hooked for the next 15/17 years.

May he R.I.E.P.
