Born Jepther McClymont in Davey Town, Jamaica. Luciano began his career when he voiced his debut tune for Herman Chin-Loy at Aquarius. Then he made half an album with Pressley( Meets Pressley) for H.K.R Henry/Sky High.

Sky High said "This youth called Luciano - from I start producing him, I know he was ready for the world".

In 1993 he started voicing for Phillip 'Fatis' Burrell, who made Luciano's first hits Chant Out and Poor And Simple. His first solo album Moving Up was released by Exterminator. Then he joined Freddie McGregor's Big Ship. Shake It Up tonight became his first UK number 1 and an album Shake It Up Tonight was well received.

In 1994 he recorded the duet Rebel With A Cause with Josey Wales and Charlie Chaplin on Fatis' Exterminator label, and Bob Marley's Crazy Baldhead with Beenieman on Sly & Robbie's Taxi label. He voiced It's Me Again Jah over "House Is Not A Home" rhythm which established his name on the dancehall market and at the sound systems, and Must Ragamuffin over "Promise Land" rhythm.

In 1995 he signed a contact Island Jamaica, which resulted in his album Where There Is Life. In the same year he recorded the duet In This Together with Louie Culture, Every Man Has A Way with Beres Hammond, Tony rebel and Louie Culture both were melodic tunes. In autumn of 1995, his another hit World Are Mine became number 1 in UK charts. Luciano is one of the most promising new singer/songwriter.
