==Biography==
Born in Jamaica in 1957, he began his career in 1976 as a deejay with the Socialist Roots sound system.〔Moskowitz, David V. (2006) ''Caribbean Popular Music: an Encyclopedia of Reggae, Mento, Ska, Rock Steady, and Dancehall'', Greenwood Press, ISBN 0-313-33158-8, p. 219-220〕〔Campbell, Howard (2012) "(Nicodemus, the deejay’s deejay )", ''Jamaica Observer'', 26 October 2012, retrieved 27 October 2012〕 He moved to Prince Jammy's sound system in 1978 and towards the end of the decade also made his first studio recordings.〔 His style was compared to Prince Far I and Prince Jazzbo.〔Larkin, Colin (1998) ''the Virgin Encyclopedia of Reggae'', Virgin Books, ISBN 0-7535-0242-9, p. 209〕〔Barrow, Steve & Dalton, Peter (2004) ''The Rough Guide to Reggae, 3rd edn.'', Rough Guides, ISBN 1-84353-329-4, p. 269〕 He had a big hit with "Boneman Connection" in 1981, and remained popular throughout the first half of the 1980s, becoming regarded as a dancehall veteran.〔〔Kenner, Rob (2003) "Boomshots: Reggae Riddims & Reality", ''Vibe'', December 2003〕 His influence was clear on younger deejays such as John Taylor, aka Nicodemus Junior, who later had greater success after changing his stage name to Chaka Demus.〔 After a lean period between the mid 1980s and the early 1990s, when his releases were less frequent, he re-emerged in 1994 with the album ''The Good, the Bad, the Ugly, and the Crazy'', which was followed by ''Cabbin Stabbin'' in 1995. In 1996, he died from complications related to diabetes, aged 39, with a posthumous album, ''Dancehall Greats'', issued two years later.〔
