Biography

Jamaican singer, actress and supermodel born on May 19, 1948 [some sources claim 1950 or 1952] in Spanish Town, Jamaica, West Indies. She moved to Syracuse, New York, in her early teens, where her parents had relocated and founded the Apostolic Church of Jesus Christ. She moved to New York at 18 and began a modelling career that took her to Paris where she worked for [a1112433], [a1938466] and [a3909690] and photographers such as [a1493522] and [a2887188]. While in Paris, she branched out into a recording career, first as a disco diva, working with [a=Tom Moulton], before evolving towards a reggae / new wave sound created at [l264020] with [a5064] and marked by striking visuals created by her then partner [a250086]. Her first connection with music perhaps is her uncredited appearance on the cover of the 1973 reissue of [r3536194]. She published her autobiography in 2015, I'll Never Write My Memoirs (a line taken from her song Art Groupie), co-written with [a231640], in which she comes back on her early childhood in Jamaica, denies some longstanding rumours and fuels a few new ones. Grace is the granddaughter of [a3960002], daughter of [a1272793], sister of [a3849585] and [a1291649], and mother of [a1275577].

LYRICS

Back in the night is the father of hell, By command that I wont go (?), If your a stranger your life is in danger, So guard your lives. I've a vocation of verse meditation, I know if it's to ditch, Optimum (?), Yes I'm a witch. No fantasy, You're stuck with me, No wonder evil, none is there to be found. Sinning every day, Cussing all the way, Sinning every day, Cussing all the way. No fantasy, You'er trapped with me, Just dont get tired and I wont bring you down, Sinning every day, Cussing all the way, Sinning every day, Cussing all the way. Rather be a bitch, just look at me, Bein' a witch is what I'd rather be, You just make me mad, I'll let you see, What I'd rather be, What Id rather (be/feel), Bad as I can be, Mad as I can be, What Id rather see, What Id rather be, Bad as I can be, Bad as I can be. No fantasy, Your stuck with me, There ae no reasons on this earth to be found. Sinning every day, Cussing all the way, Sinning every day, Cussing all the way. No fantasy, You're trapped with me, Just dont get tired and I wont bring you down, Bad as I can be. Sinning every day, Cussing all the way, Sinning every day, Cussing all the way. Rather be a bitch, just look at me, Bein' a witch is what I'd rather be, You just make me mad, I'll let you see, What I'd rather be, What Id rather (be/feel), Bad as I can be, Mad as I can be, What Id rather see, Mad as I can be, What Id rather be, Bad as I can be. Thats what I would rather be, Just as bad as I can be, Thats what I would rather be, Just as bad as I can be, Thats what I would rather be.
