Armed with great technique and a masively versatile talent this deejay had an impressive series of hits for producers like Phil Pratt, Gregory Isaacs, Prince Buster, Keith the Hudson, Yabby You or the Abyssinians; as a solo artist and with various labels. Big Youth represents a crucial step in the long journey which stems back to the likes of U Roy and includes modern deejays like Beenie Man or Bounty Killer.
