Roland was born in Pennants, Clarendon in Jamaica and was destined to become a star from his early days at John Austin School which set the stage for a career in the music field. Growing up in Trench Town, he met Bob Marley and Toots Hibbert who gave him inspiration and counseling as he would often jam with them. During his growing artistic years, he sang with a group called The Shades, where he encountered Lee Scratch Perr. Along with Conrad Brown, they produced "Lonely Man." Thereafter, Roland quickly rose to popular fame when he recorded the chartbuster "Johnny Dollar," a song that topped the Jamaican charts in Europe, USA and Japan.
