OLDIES SUNDAY: Daddy Screw & Donovan Steele – Kerry (1994)

In music, there are names that are immortalized in song. You know plenty of those songs, but when you own one of the names, it’s really special. Today’s “Oldies Sunday” will be special for the Women who own this name. Today’s selection comes from Daddy Screw with the track, “Kerry“.

Produced by Dave Kelly on the “Car Crash Riddim” and released through the Mad House label in 1994, Daddy Screw had “Kerry” on his mind a lot. Featuring Singer Donovan Steele, the song finds the Artists making their dedication to Kerry, assuring love and loyalty, dismissing other Women, and of course making her feel like the only girl in the world. All the Women named Kerry quickly owned this song when it was released back in the day, and it definitely boosted their confidence. Aside from them, the song became one of Screw’s hits, securing high positions on local charts, and finding its way into the International market.

Since the release of “Kerry”, Daddy Screw went on to release more music over the years. He migrated to the US in later years, but the musical output slowed since. He supported the career of his son Tyrello a.k.a. Chedda Da Medalis, who had some success in music over the years. “Kerry” continues to be played to this day, along with his many hits. Big up all the Kerry dem.
