U-roy
Dread In A Babylon
U-Roy was a true reggae pioneer, dubbed The Originator for good reason. Bursting onto the Jamaican scene in the earliest
1970s, he pioneered the vocal approach called "toasting," which in addition to branching out Jamaican music into a new
era, was also heavily influential on an American genre in its infancy: rapping. Presented on black vinyl with an 18 x
24" poster of
the glorious, ganja-drenched cover art, it's the perfect chance to revisit one of the more underrated voices in Jamaican
musical history.
