Re: Oliver Samuels Discussion

Oliver, do u realise that u r one of the few people in the world known by just one name?

u stand in line with Oprah, Madonna, Cher...

OLIVER is known to every person of Jamaican heritage and there r millions of us about the place

u r infact 'large' so tell me , how did u come up with the idea for the song of that title....

Re: Oliver Samuels Discussion

Welcome....

Im not Jamaican.. and i never heard of you.... but i can see by all the questions being thrown at you .. that you are highly regarded....

have you been to NYC to perform.. id love to come see you...

would a non jamaican appreciate your style? understand it?

I frequent the island many times a year.. and have been on this board a long time... but im wondering if id still get the humor?

is your stage work done in patois?

Re: Oliver Samuels Discussion

hi, folks, I am on the phone with Oliver and his assistant in Jamaica. the Internet service there is very slow, so have patience - they're typing answers but it's taking some time to process and they can't get to the questions fast enough.
