Happy birthday to Stranger Cole.

Stranger got his nickname as a youth as he didn't resemble any members of his family!

His debut solo single Rough & Tough was produced by Duke Reid and became a massive JA No. 1 hit in 1963...

Stranger Cole, pioneiro do ska e do rocksteady, nos deixou em 11 de junho de 2026, aos 83 anos. Sua música atravessou fronteiras e seguirá viva como parte da história da Jamaica e do mundo.

Afortunadamente, tuve el privilegio de estrechar su mano hace unos meses en mi tierra y disfrutar de su voz en directo. Gracias de corazón por las canciones, por los recuerdos y por una vida dedicada a la música. #DEP, #StrangerCole🌹🖤.

Meeting #strangercole back in 2014 was a piece of #ska & #reggae history for me. Full of energy on stage I was surprised to hear recently that he jetted off to Japan shortly afterwards and then back to Jamaica. Now that’s rough & tough #morelife
