About the artist

U-Roy

U-ROY, the godfather of Jamaican dancehall, is not your average reggae artist. With a career spanning over five decades, this legendary toaster has solidified his place in music history as a pioneer of the genre. Born Ewart Beckford in Kingston, Jamaica, U-ROY rose to fame in the 1970s with his innovative style of "toasting" - a rhythmic, melodic form of chanting over reggae instrumentals. His signature stuttering delivery and witty lyrics set him apart from his contemporaries, earning him the title of "The Originator." U-ROY's influence can be heard in the music of artists such as Big Youth, Yellowman, and Shabba Ranks, solidifying his status as a true trailblazer in the world of reggae and dancehall. His groundbreaking albums, including "Version Galore" and "Dread in a Babylon," have become classics in their own right, showcasing his unparalleled talent for storytelling and wordplay. Despite his immense success, U-ROY remains humble and down-to-earth, always willing to share his wisdom and experience with up-and-coming artists. His infectious energy and charismatic stage presence continue to captivate audiences around the world, making him a must-see act for any music lover. In a world of auto-tuned pop stars and manufactured personas, U-ROY stands out as a true original, a living legend who continues to push the boundaries of what reggae music can be. With his timeless sound and undeniable talent, there's no telling where this musical icon will take us next.
