Kingston, JMrock, reggae

Buju Banton was one of the most popular dancehall reggae artists of the '90s.
Debuting with a series of popular "slack" singles, which drew criticism for their graphic sexuality and homophobia, Banton converted to Rastafarianism and revolutionized dancehall by employing the live instrumentation and social consciousness of classic roots reggae.
