Television and radio personality Frederick Rampersaud this month celebrates 25 years in the entertainment industry. Two of his programmes, “Music From the Heart” and “The Sunday Morning Show” are two of the longstanding musical programmes in the country, that have become a special part of the lives of Guyanese here and in the diaspora.
With a grandfather, father, and a brother who took up positions in their respective churches as pastors, Frederick knew he wanted to be in a position where he could also enliven and inspire others.
An avid music lover while growing up, he was over the moon when his father took home a stereo set. The equipment had a turntable where he played records. He could play his music non-stop and the stereo set came with a microphone which he made use of also.
