NASSAU| Priscilla Jasmine Rollins affectionately known as the Bahamian Queen of Soul has died. She was best known for her “Independence Morning” hit and “Gat a Letter from Miami”.
Rollins’ song, “Independence Morning, It’s like a Baby Borning”, a catchy tune that has delighted audiences since 1973; a solid 50 years strong.
Ms Rollins captured much of the enthusiasm and excitement of independence and lived to see the vision of a modern Bahamas.
Her last known public appearance came at the 50th Independence Celebrations. She was 79.
May her soul rest in peace.
