The Story
Billy Ocean is a singer and songwriter from Trinidad and Tobago known for his blend of soul, funk, rhythm and blues, and pop music. With a career spanning several labels like Epic Records, GTO Records, and Jive Records, he delivered catchy hits that still get airplay today. You might remember dancing to “Caribbean Queen (No More Love On the Run)” or singing along to “Loverboy” in the car. He also brought us “Suddenly” and “There'll Be Sad Songs (To Make You Cry),” alongside the upbeat anthems “When the Going Gets Tough, the Tough Get Going” and “Get Outta My Dreams, Get Into My Car.” Ocean’s smooth vocals and infectious rhythms are a vibrant snapshot of the '80s music scene.
