    BLACK UHURU TRIBUTE MIX

    Black Uhuru is one of the most successful and influential reggae bands from Jamaica. Formed in 1972 in the Waterhouse district of Kingston, they were pioneers of the "modern" roots reggae sound. In 1985, they made history by winning the very first Grammy Award for Best Reggae Recording for their album Anthem. Their most famous period (late 70s to mid-80s) featured the vocal trio of Derrick "Duckie" Simpson, Michael Rose, and Sandra "Puma" Jones, backed by the legendary rhythm section Sly & Robbie. Junior Reid joined Black Uhuru in 1985 to replace lead singer Michael Rose. His tenure lasted until 1988/1989 and is marked by some of the band's most internationally recognized hits. The Name "Uhuru" is the Swahili word for freedom.

    ROOTS & CULTURE VOL. 20

    In times of political tension, endless headlines, and growing division, music stands as a reminder of another way forward. Reggae has always spoken where words fail. By carrying truth, resistance, and hope on a steady heartbeat. Against war, violence, and fear, not with anger, but with clarity and warmth. It’s music for reflection and resilience, for remembering our shared humanity when the world feels fractured and helps us to remain rooted in the belief that peace is not passive, that love is not weak, and that unity is a radical force.

    JOHN HOLT TRIBUTE MIX

    John Holt (1947–2014) was a legendary Jamaican singer and songwriter who played a pivotal role in shaping the sounds of Rocksteady and Reggae. Before going solo, he was the lead singer of the iconic group "The Paragons". He wrote their biggest hit, "The Tide Is High," which later became a global #1 for Blondie. In the early 70s, he went solo and became one of Jamaica's biggest stars. His track "Stick By Me" was the biggest-selling Jamaican single of 1972. The 1974 album "1000 Volts Of Holt" is considered a masterpiece, blending reggae with orchestral arrangements. It helped him break into the UK mainstream. In 1983, he released the massive hit "Police In Helicopter", which remains a "ganja anthem" and one of the most recognizable tracks in reggae history. Known as a "crooner," Holt had a smooth, soulful voice that made him a pioneer of the Lovers Rock subgenre and is remembered as one of the most consistent and prolific songwriters in Caribbean music history.
