Notes
--------
Yami Bolo's magical voice speaks directly to the heart, his
singing style has been passionately compared to a "cry out
in the wilderness" inspiring strength, joy, and, most
importantly, hope. Born Rolando Ephraim McLean on October 1,
1970, raised in Kingston 13, Bolo became exposed to music at
an early age through the church, which his grandmother
always insisted that he attend. His early attraction to
music was further encouraged by his grandmother's gift of an
accordion and a trombone. Bolo's first professional training
in the music industry occured while he was a member of
Sugar Minott's Youth Promotion Crew of the 1980s, which was
instrumental in the careers of such great singers as Garnett
Silk and Tenor Saw, among others. Yami Bolo's first major
stage show was at the St. Andrew Technical High School,
where at the tender age of 13, he performed his emotional
hit single "When a Man's in Love", still a favorite in the
dance clubs today, and from which KRS-1 sampled his recent
hit "Take it Easy".
Since that time, Bolo's musical career has led him on a
series of regal adventures. He has worked with top producers
including Augustus Pablo, Coxson Dodd, Lee Perry, Winston
Riley, Clive Hunt, Sly and Robbie, among others. In 1987, at
the age of 17, he was invited on tour with Augustus
Pablo's prestigious Rockers crew and in 1994 created an
indelible impression on the Japan Splash tour leading to a
unique collaboration between established Japanese superstar
Kazafumi Miyazawa (Miya). The "Miya-Yami Project" garnered
the "Best Music Video" title in Japan making Bolo the proud
recipient of Sony's Silver Grand Prix Award. Their album
"Love is Dangerous" became one of the best selling reggae
albums in Japan with sales topping half of a million copies.
The single "Brothers Unite" was voted Best Reggae Single
1994.
Bolo remains true to the spirit of reggae when, in speaking
of his work, he states "the singer is but the instrument.
It's the Almighty at work." Bolo's commitment to conscious
lyrics is evident throughout his music, he is determined to
spread the love and happiness of his spiritual strength
through exploring his multiple roles as singer, songwriter
and musician. Yami Bolo's talent has been long recognized by
fellow artists, recent collaborations with Josey Wales and
Charlie Chaplin "Do Good," Jack Radics "The Puppet Master,"
Bounti Killer and Jr. Reid "Eyes a Bleed," and Capelton
"Put Down Your Weapons," have lead to top radio hits in
Jamaica and abroad. These songs reveal Bolo's militant
commitment to the youths whose "coming of age" under current
economic and social conditions require the love of their
fellowman and a redefined reverence for the highest moral
standards. "Jah Jah Give Me True Love" and "Be Still
Babylon" are anthems which embody Bolo's love for the
Creator and his devotion to Jah Rastafari. Innovatingly,
Bolo's adaption of Madonna's "La Isla Bonita" has
transformed the song to subtly celebrate Jamaica's own
beauty and romantic vision, another favorite of Jamaica's
radiowaves.
"I know that every person on this earth is here to spread
love and happiness across the world," Bolo says. "I put my
trust in the Almighty, and he always inspires me, so I use
my talent to praise Jah and the principles of peace and joy
that are within each and everyone of us." With his
newly-formed production company, Yam Euphony Music, Yami
Bolo continues to carry his musical message from Jamaica to
the world.
