Ini Kamoze is celebrating his 68th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed singers of his generation.
Popular singer Ini Kamoze (Here Comes the Hotstepper, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 68th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.
Kamoze, a cultural icon
Born Cecil Campbell in Saint Mary on October 9, 1957, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Jamaican history. Kamoze's not just a great singer, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Ini hasn't done.
And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Ini Kamoze as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 68.
Happy Birthday, Ini, you're the best!
