Tall, dreadlocked Junior Kelly is a devout Rastafarian and its Bobo Shanti mansion, on a serious musical mission which is manifested through the quality of his contemplative lyrics, the diversity of his substantial subject matter and his inspirational delivery. "Rasta Should Be Deeper". His βIf love So Nice (Why Do It Hurt So Bad)β took a detour through Europe along its route to the top of the Jamaican charts, a position which it securely held for 15 weeks, Born in St Thomas, Jamaica 1970, Junior was raised in nearby Spanish Town. Throughout his childhood, he was surrounded by music, his grandfather and father both played banjo, his mother sang in the Church and his oldest brother Jim was a popular Deejay[rapper] with the Kilamanjaro Sound
There was a sense of comfort and security within the family; Despite their poor economic status they were rich in other ways. βIf itβs soup today, weβre happy, if itβs crackers tomorrow, weβre still happy,β relates Junior, βbecause we knew we had each other to lean on.β
The family was plummeted into depression with the murder of juniorβs oldest brother Jim. A part time caterer, Jim was the familyβs principal breadwinner and a role model for Junior ; Jim regularly practiced his lyrical toasts in the family living room, greatly influencing the career path of his youngest brother.
After Jimβs death, to help support his family Junior followed soundsystems all over the island just for the opportunity to demonstrate his vocal and lyrical talents. He also began auditioning for several of the Producers comprising Kingstonβs crowded music circuit, attempting to record songs. Adhering to his principled Rastafarian lifestyle, he refused to compromise his lyrical content by writing lewd lyrics or songs disrespecting women.
Juniorβs career pace accelerated in late 1995 with appearances at major Jamaican stage shows including Reggae Sunsplash and Sting as well as shows in several northeastern American cities. While in America, he also recorded two songs, βHungry Daysβ and βGood Tidingsβ for Willie Carsonβs Front Page label. He returned to Jamaica to concentrate on his song writing and met Michael Stanford of M Rush Records for whom he recorded several singles including βBlack Womanβ and βIf Love So Niceβ.
βIf love So Niceβ took a detour through Europe along its route to the top of the Jamaican charts, a position which it securely held for 15 weeks, making it the longest charting number one tune on the island for the year 2000.
βIf love so Niceβ, one of, if not the most impressive Reggae song, impacted upon Jamaica with a force not experienced since hurricane Gilbert, posing a question every man and woman has asked at least once in a lifetime: βIf love so nice, tell me why it hurt so bad?β Utilizing the forceful bass line played by Aston βFamilymanβ Barrettβ on Bob Marleyβs timeless tune βStir It Upβ gave βIf Love So Niceβ a familiar underpinning even though the vocalist Junior Kelly, delivering classic Jamaican blend of precision deejay timing and lovers rock crooning, was unknown to most Reggae fans.
Despite his seemingly sudden rise to success, Junior Kelly, also the writer of βIf Love So Niceβ, has been assiduously toiling in the music industry since 1985. βSome say this is a lucky break, I say no, itβs a result of hard work,β explains the affable sing-jay Kelly who cut his first single βOver Her Bodyβ in 1985 for Neco Records. βSome say that culture in the music is a dying art form but itβs not. You have artists like myself who try to uplift the nation with words you can live by, thereβs just less attention given to us by radio disc jockeys.β
Despite the attention β IF LOVE SO NICEβ has deservingly received, Junior Kelly is more than a one hit wonder ; A listen to his Jet Star albums βRiseβ and βJuvenileβ, not to mention his VP Records debut album of the same name βIf love so niceβ
