New Yorker Carlton Jumel Smith was born and raised in Spanish Harlem. His mother took him to see James Brown at The Apollo at 8 years old which left an indelible mark on the young boy.
He released his first recording in 1986, a house number titled "Excite Me", and then went under the alias Napoleon Soul-O in the 90s.
After releasing a couple of live albums and cover albums, fast forward to 2007 when he released an album "Diagram Of A Relationship" followed in 2019 by "1634 Lexington Avenue" for Finnish label Timmion for who he also released around ten singles.
His latest single, "It's Gonna Be Alright", though, is for German (Leipzig) label Golden Rules which is the third single from a compilation "The Originals Vol. 3".
He last featured here with a six track EP "Devoted To You" featuring Timmion house band Cold Diamond & Mink in Apr '22.
