Born in Trinidad, but based out of Britain for his entire career Billy Ocean was the undisputed king of British R&B in the 1970's and 1980's. Billy has not only scored with many Top 20 UK chart successes, but also a bit later in his career took the top of the charts in the USA and internationally fueled by his mega-hit "Caribbean Queen." In 2010 Billy even received a prestigious lifetime achievement acknowledgment at the MOBO awards. No one ever deserved it more! Since the 1980's Billy has continued to record and most of all perform live for his beloved fans whenever the opportunity has been right. Several greatest hits albums as well as his 1997 compilation "Love is For Ever" all sold very well making their marks on the U.K. and U.S. charts. Right now Billy Ocean has been going back and forth between studios in the Caribbean and London preparing a new album as well as practicing for his coming 2013 tour. There's no doubt he'll show the young and old alike what British R&B is really about. Billy Ocean has never lost that special gift.
