  Musical Youth - \'Pass the Dutchie\' (1983)

  When these musically gifted Jamaican teenagers stormed the pop top 10 in 1983 they seemed like a Jamaican version of the Jackson 5. Despite the fact their signature hit was a barely reworked version of a Mighty Diamonds song called \'Pass the Kouchie\' extolling the virtues of marijuana (dutchie, meaning cooking pot, replaced kouchie, a word for marijuana, included in the original), the world was charmed. They received a Grammy Award nomination for Best New Artist. Unfortunately, success was fleeting for the group.

  Inner Circle - \'Bad Boys\' (1993)

  Originally recorded in 1987, the song \'Bad Boys\' didn\'t become a hit single in the U.S. until it was picked up as the theme song for the Fox network\'s reality TV show Cops and used in the soundtracks for the movies Bad Boys and Bad Boys II. Despite its pop success, landing in the top 10, it remains a rather dark, stern warning about the consequences of coming up against the law. The skeletal dancehall beats lend an intoxicating aura of possible menace. \'Sheriff John Brown\' mentioned in the lyrics is a reference to the song \'I Shot the Sheriff\' performed by both Bob Marley and Eric Clapton.

  The group Inner Circle originally formed in Jamaica in 1968. They first appeared on recordings in 1971. The group\'s lead singer during much of the 1970s was Jacob Miller who was more popular than any other artist in Jamaica excepting Bob Marley. On March 23, 1980, Jacob Miller died in a tragic car accident. That forced the group to rework their approach to music sales and growing the band\'s popularity.
