Smart, Leroy
Mr Smartin Dub
Leroy Smart the self-proclaimed Don, carries much respect in the Jamaican musical community. His attacking vocal style gives his lyrics and tunes that extra meaningfulness. Born in Jamaica and orphaned as a young child, Leroy was sent to Maxfield Park children's home and educated at the famed Alpha Boys School. The school was run by nuns who encouraged musical talent and would provide the world with the cream of Jamaicas artistic talent. Such legends as Don Drummond, Tommy McCook, Johnny Dizzy Moore, to name but a few, all learnt their musical trade in this strict environment.
