Ever hear this one "O Mama you got me living on the frontlines, you got me living in the wrongtime" Eddy Grant lives now in Caribbean: this is from 1979(On his own label:Ice Record" and pioneering record for electronic deep bass line that was to in future dominate electro dance music.
He turned down bigtime contracts with american companies and set-up his own little company. So he was not kidding "i don't want your BRIBERY, i don't want to be a Big Star.i don't want to go to America" He was born in Guyana.

from wiki <<Ice Records: Grant set up his own recording company, Ice Records and the Coach House studio,[1] but more recently has returned to the West Indies from London, choosing Barbados as a more realistic venue for a recording company, rather than his country of origin. He has also produced for the likes of Sting, Mick Jagger and Elvis Costello.>>
