#RipJohnnyNash 💔 🕊 . Houston singer and songwriter Johnny Nash has died at the age of 80. The reggae and pop singer had reportedly been dealing with a decline in his health recently. Nash is best known for his 1972 hit "I Can See Clearly Now." The record sold more than a million copies and reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in November of that year. (It was also the song that the late Fitzroy Gordon chose to officially launch @g987fm, to this day my dad talks to me about hearing that song all around the Toronto harbour and over the water as all the guys at work and on the Ferry had their radios tuned in to be a part of history and hear what the station’s first song would be 🖤🖤💔🙏🏾 📢 Nash was born in Houston and grew up in the historic Third Ward neighborhood. He moved to Jamaica in the mid 60s and was one of the first non-Jamaican singers to record reggae music in Kingston, Jamaica. He also scored hits with his version of Bob Marley’s “Stir It Up” and “There Are More Questions Than Answers” #Rip to A Musical Giant 🙏🏾 https://www.instagram.com/p/CGB1uiBlNIG/?igshid=10yb8qzec2yi6
