Delroy Wilson, often hailed as one of Jamaica’s most soulful voices, was a pioneering figure in the evolution of ska, rocksteady, and reggae. Emerging as a child prodigy under producer Coxsone Dodd in the early 1960s, he quickly became known for his smooth vocals and heartfelt delivery. Wilson’s ability to blend social commentary with romantic themes earned him critical acclaim and a lasting legacy. With timeless hits like “Dancing Mood” and “Better Must Come,” he helped define the sound of modern reggae and inspired generations of artists to follow.
