Happy Heavenly 71st Birthday to di original mic general - Harold Jackson aka Joe Lickshot 💚💛❤️
Born June 22, 1955. Gone November 11, 2025.

Joe Lickshot nah just a DJ - him a di voice weh mek 80s dancehall jump. From Volcano, to Black Scorpio, to Stereo Mars, him hold di mic like a weapon. Di “lickshot” style? Pure energy, raw chat, and di crowd nuh have no choice but fi jump.

Him a di man behind tunes weh seh “Tek weh yuhself”, “Mi nah play”, and all di classic chats weh buss up di dance. Every original 80s crew remember di night Joe Lickshot grab di mic - di place a lock off.

Dancehall lost a foundation stone, but di voice nah dead. It live on in every selector and mic man weh come after him.

Gone but never forgotten. Rest easy General. Happy heavenly birthday Joe Lickshot. 80s dancehall nuh nuh same again 🙏
