Born and raised in the notorious Trenchtown and Arnett Gardens area of Kingston, Jamaica, Christopher Campbell, now known as Norris Man had Bob Marley as a hometown hero to inspire his immersion into the musical arena. As a young boy Norris Man (named because of his enthusiasm for karate king Chuck Norris) would sit under a tree to write his own songs of redemption. Feeling music within him, Norris could not ignore his gift of singing and performing. In the Kingston dancehalls of his youth, older sound boys would hoist ten year-old Norris on top a Guiness box and hand him the mic to stir up the dance. Such experiences lit the musical fire for this ghetto youth. From there his musical journey began.
Born Anthony Cameron in 1962, Kingston, Jamaica, West Indies. At the start of his career, Michael Rose recorded as Tony Rose, which led to Anthony performing as Red Rose to avoid confusion. Anthony Red Rose has the distinction of recording the first hit from King Tubby's new studio in 1985. The song "Tempo" was recorded in the Waterhouse style initially popularized by Tenor Saw, and the latter's popular song "Fever" was almost identical to the Red Rose hit. He continued recording sporadic hits, including "Reminisce", with haunting backing vocals from Brian And Tony Gold, "Vanity Rush", "Babylon Be Still" and "Not Ready For My Loving".
