Biography

Influential Jamaican dancehall deejay, born Joseph Winston Sterling in St. Mary, Jamaica, October 8th, 1959. He was considered, along with [a=Brigadier Jerry], [a=Yellowman] and sound system partner [a=Charlie Chaplin (2)], one of the best deejays of the 1980s. His career began in the late 1970s performing over [a=U-Roy]-owned King Sturgav sound system, and he gained even more popularity in the early 1980s performing over [a=Henry "Junjo" Lawes]'s volcano sound system, and recording singles such as "Bobo Dread" and "Leggo Mi Hand" for Lawes' label of the same name as well as later hits for [a=George Phang]'s Power House label, most noticeably "Undercover Lover." Wales is named after the 1976 Western movie character from The Outlaw Josey Wales, played by [a=Clint Eastwood (2)], and subsequently nicknamed "The Outlaw".
