Jo Jo Hookim

JoJo Hookim (Joseph Hoo Kim, 1942 – 20 September 2018) was a Jamaican reggae record producer. Born to parents of Chinese and Chinese-Jewish heritage, Joseph Hoo Kim grew up in the Maxfield Avenue area of Kingston. He was the oldest of four brothers (to Ernest, Paul and Kenneth), who during the 1960s were involved in the jukebox and slot machine industry. In 1970, after the Jamaican government declared the gambling games illegal, Joseph and Ernest decided to turn to the music business and launched a sound-system named Channel One.
