TERROR FABULOUS ft. NADINE SUTHERLAND - Action

Cecil Campbell, better known as Terror Fabulous is a Jamaican dancehall deejay, who had success in the 1990s. Campbell was introduced to producer Dave Kelly after completing a course in electrical engineering. His recording career began in the early 1990s, with singles such as "Gwaney Gwaney" and "Dorothy", and he was signed by East West Records. After his debut album, the Patrick Roberts/Donovan Germain-produced Gwaney Gwaney in 1992, his album Yaga Yaga, produced by Kelly and released in 1994, included his hit duet with Nadine Sutherland on "Action", as well as "Miss Goody Goody". Other guests on the album included Brian & Tony Gold, Gary Minott, Daddy Screw, and Wayne Wonder. In the same year, the Bobby Digital-produced Terror was released, and he performed at Reggae Sunsplash. He released a further album in 1996, but this proved to be his last to date, although he made guest appearances on recordings by En Vogue, Luciano, and Third World. Data Courtesy: wikipedia

Nadine Sutherland is a Jamaican reggae singer whose early career was nurtured by Bob Marley. She went on to become a successful dancehall artist in the 1990s. Sutherland was born in Kingston, Jamaica and raised in Above Rocks in Saint Catherine Parish. She began performing in 1979, winning the Tastee Talent Contest that year, with her parents managing her career while she studied at St Andrew High School. She combined her musical career with studies in business administration, and was the first artist signed by Bob Marley to his Tuff Gong label, recording "Starvation on the Land" while aged eleven. In addition to that, she also recorded a few more Christian reggae singles, such as "Hands and Heart", "A Young One Like Me" and "Work and Pray" when she was associated by her old friends, Anthony "Sangie" Davis and Rita Marley. After Marley's death, Sutherland performed at memorial concerts outside Jamaica, along with Ziggy Marley and the Melody Makers, the I Threes, and the Wailers. Data Courtesy: wikipedia
