Who is Junor Francis?!
Just one of the most dynamic Reggae Disk Jockeys ever to grace the radio! I had the honor of joining Mr. Francis at the KSPC studios to watch him work, and could barely keep up! Mr. Francis made it look all too easy as he rolled in his chair from one side of the studio to the other, never missing a beat or a cue! Let's take a few minutes to see where all of this wonderful talent came from.
Junor Francis was born and raised in the hills of Farm, Manchester, on the South Coast of Jamaica. From there he went to Brooklyn, New York and later Southern California. According to Mr. Francis he's been Djing since he was born, but started his radio career in 1988. Junor has been in studio with A wide and dynamic range of artists including Buju Banton, Capleton, Sugar Minott, Glen Washington, Lady Saw, Eric Monty Morris, LaDee Dred, Michigan, Smiley, Pat Kelly, Shinehead, Eljai, Dread Daze, Yami Bolo, Ronnie Davis, Sizzla, Wailing Souls, Garth Dennis...and many more. I asked Mr.Francis if he does what he does for the love of music, and he replied"CD for the simple fact that a CD can be cued as fast as lightening flash. Additionally,
I can do an instant rewind of a choice favorite song with the CD player. With records you have to be a true genius to do hall-and-pull especially on the air which I used to do with many errors!" Junor Francis brings a heartfelt flavor that is all his own, and I can't wait to spend more time with him in studio in the future!
