In 1983, Boyo Released the track ‘Wicked She Wicked’ produced by the late Henry ‘Junjo’ Lawes. ‘Wicked She Wicked’ simply put, is a song about a wicked chick. “she was a christian who turned rocka, and she ain’t afraid to pick your pocket”. Boyo’s smooth flow to the beat is certainly something to jam to over and over. On top of that, the not-childish content of his lyrics, backed by the voice of a kid will certainly amaze you.
In the same year, Boyo, accompanied by Little John and Ranking Toyan, moved to London and linked up with producer Silver Kamel. Silver took Boyo to the studio to record his second album, Zam Zam. For whatever reasons, this album, was put on hold, only to be released about twenty years later in 2003.
Unfortunately, not much of Billy Boyo was heard after the second half of the 80’s. He did not record much and died of a brain tumor on 29th October 2000. Nevertheless, Legends are never forgotten and this post is proof!
