The Rolling Stones and Fatboy Slim Surprise Collaboration – “Satisfaction Skank”

Jimmy Cliff, born James Chambers in St. James Parish, Jamaica, on the 30th of July 1944, was the second youngest out of nine children. Coming from in an impoverished community near Montego Bay, Cliff started writing songs and singing at church from a young age. His teacher, Robertha White, recommended that he attend Kingston’s high school, where he would eventually move in the late 1950s. Here, he began going under the name Jimmy Cliff and started participating in talent contests. It was in Kingston where Cliff, who had already released his debut single “I’m Sorry”, met producer Leslie Kong. Leading to a legacy musical duo.
