Admiral T, whose real name is Christy Campbell, is a french Guadeloupean singer of reggae-dancehall music. Born in 1981 to a West Indian family on the island of Guadeloupe, he was one of ten children. At the age of 16, he joined the dancehall group Karukera Sound System; he left the group in 2003 to start a solo career, releasing Mozaïk Kréyòl. The album was successful enough to be re-released on Universal Records, where it became a hit in Europe, especially in France.
In 2005, Admiral T appeared in the film Nèg Maron in 2005. The following year he released his second album, Toucher L'Horizon, which also gained commercial success and has been awarded by a Césaire of Music in October 2006. He spent much of 2007 in France, London and the West Indies on his "Fos A Péyi La" Tour (title of his song with Kassav'). Admiral T won a Skyrock Music Award in December 2007. In 2008, he will launch his own clothing line, Wok Line, as well as a new album.
