Keynote Speaker, Jack Radics:

Jack Radics, One of the most intriguing vocalists to emerge from the '80s dancehalls. Rarely seen and sometimes rarely heard, Radic’s, a prominent voice arising from Jamaica's Reggae music arena, with mega hits like “This Time I'll Be Sweeter”, “Affairs Of The Heart”, “Josephine” and “Twist And Shout” in collaboration with Supercat, Chaka Demus and Pliers respectively, is the quintessential, passionate crooner with a recording career spanning more than 20 years. His voice is a jaunty mixture of Isaac Hayes, Peter Tosh, and Barry White, with the pep of Louis Armstrong and soulfulness of Otis Redding, who happens to be one of his greatest musical influences.For Radics,' singing is [often] easier than breathing'. He has always remembered himself being around music and singing through his early piano lessons and years as a member on various school and church choirs.Radics soon was touring with the likes of Freddy McGregor, UB40, Tiger, Chaka Demus and Pliers, Joe Cocker and disco denizen, Blondie, to places like Japan, Australia, New Zealand and various parts of Europe where he has established strong fan bases.His first studio recording, which became popular in 1980, was a cover of Kool and the Gang's hit “Get down on It,” produced and released by the late Valerie Cowan as a 45 single on her UFO label. By 1990, he released a cover of Jerry Butler's “Dream Merchant” which had the distinction of being one of the first tunes played on IRIE-FM, which signed on to the airwaves that same year.
Release of the ever popular “Twist and Shout” recorded with Chaka Demus and Pliers. Radics Initially established his reputation with “Lover’s Numbers” but, once the scene shifted, he proved equally adept at penning potent cultural material. “This is culture at its best from one of Jamaica's most unique vocalists”
