<description><![CDATA[Unlike many current Jamaican artists, Hammond has the vocal skills to sing a melody like the Reggae greats of the '70s. Hammond has been around since then, but it wasn't till more recently that he got the recognition and album sales that he deserved. His high, pure voice has just a hint of wispy gravel in it, bringing smooth lovers melodies and Rastafarian themes into his songs when many others were making money off more guns-and-women oriented lyrics. Influenced by Reggae pioneers like Alton Ellis and U.S. artists like Marvin Gaye, Hammond has a soulful voice that is one of Jamaica's modern-day classics. From Roots to Dancehall to Lovers Rock, Hammond has proven his versatility over any type of rhythm.

<description><![CDATA[Isaacs' love songs are sung listlessly, like an intimate whisper between sweethearts, a gentle lullaby or sweet muttering under one's breath. A Reggae legend keeps on, never bowing to hip-hop trends.

<description><![CDATA[Known as the Crown Prince of Reggae (Bob Marley is still king), Dennis Brown's voice was capable of conveying both romantic themes and conscious Roots topics. Brown, who passed away from respiratory failure in 1999, began as a young Roots singer, working with producers such as Coxsone Dodd and Niney the Observer and adding his wails to many backing and solo efforts. With more than eighty albums recorded, Brown has a tremendous catalog -- from the sweetest Lovers Rock to more recent Dancehall. His steady soulful vibrato can melt you like a candle.

<description><![CDATA[Artists who can take widely known but undersold genres to the top of the charts are anomalies, which would make Maxi Priest among the most impressive of the reggae lot. Since his beginnings in the 1980s, Priest has scored a number of hits and sold thousands of crates of albums in both his native Britain and the U.S. A number of his hits include remakes of old songs dressed up in reggae clothing.

<description><![CDATA[Though he started out vocalizing straight-ahead reggae tunes, over the years Wayne Wonder has evolved into one of the leading sweet-voiced lite dancehall vocalists in recent years. Born Von Wayne Charles, he captivates Jamaica's female audience with his silky, romantic melodies and big brown eyes. Sometimes he brings in gruff heavyweights like Buju Banton to add some edge to the unremittingly smooth R&B-touched tunes, but it's that tenor wail that keeps the ladies swooning.

<description><![CDATA[Starting with the Paragons ("The Tide Is High") during Jamaica's golden Rock Steady era and on through the era of Lovers Rock, John Holt has always maintained a strong presence on the Reggae scene. His smooth, soulful voice is a favorite, particularly on covers of popular American R&B. His is a voice you can truly feel.

<description><![CDATA[Working back and forth between rival producers Coxsone Dodd and Duke Reid, Ellis became a prolific and extremely popular Rock Steady singer, gracing hundreds of recordings with his unmatched smooth, soulful voice. Unafraid to change with the times, Ellis moved to England in the '70s and slowed down the tempo, recording slick Reggae hits and forging a romantic style that became known as Lovers Rock. His sound has a lot in common with American Soul singers, free of rasp with a gutsy power. In turn, Ellis influenced many singers to come, including Dennis Brown and later Dancehall artists -- all impressed by his vital delivery.

<description><![CDATA[In the long tradition of slow-burn Jamaican crossovers like Bob Marley and Desmond Dekker, progressive dancehall artist Richie Spice entered the eye of the American public after years of success in his homeland. Born in 1971 in a Kingston suburb, his brothers are a who's-who of Jamaican music, including DJ Snatcher Dogg, Spanner Banner, and noted producer Pliers. His first low-key singles appeared in the early '90s. Over the next decade Spice's sound became increasingly progressive, adding bits of funk, hip-hop and heady politics to the typical dancehall equation, which he reinforced with catchy, soulful singjay vocals. His debut LP, <i>Out of the Blue</i>, was released to moderate acclaim in the mid-'90s, and was followed up in 2000 by <i>Universal</i>, which was noted for the enduring single, "Earth A Run Red." It wasn't until he found a spot on the roster of Fifth Element Records, which issued 2004's <i>Spice in Your Life</i>, that he found a wide international audience and a rising fame in the U.S. and Europe.

<description><![CDATA[Some of the sweetest, purest vocal parts Jamaica has ever produced come from the melodious pipes of the Mighty Diamonds, who featured great backing tracks by artists such as Sly & Robbie or the Upsetters. Their three-part harmonies have been intact since the 1970s, lighting up tracks such as "Pass the Kutchie" (on the left hand side, please).

<description><![CDATA[Sugar Minott got his nickname in the 1970s, thanks to his sweet voice and the prodigious talent that led him to form his first group, African Brothers. Lured over to the Jamaican hit factory Studio One, Minott made his reputation there as a lyricist, improvising hit songs over classic reggae riddims. Success led him to set up his own production company, Youth Promotion/Black Roots, which enabled him to work with youth in the ghettos of Kingston. His independent spirit angered the Jamaican music industry, however, and he had relocated to the U.K. by the '80s; he subsequently became a star there with his smooth Lovers Rock style. His prolific output over the years includes cover versions of classic Soul songs (to which his talent is perfectly suited), as well as harder-edged Dancehall. His voice is already immortalized in reggae's consciousness, but the social conscience that guides his songwriting and production is another mark of distinction.

<description><![CDATA[McGregor's smooth, classic reggae voice has spanned decades with its warm sound and effortless vibrato. From his beginnings as a seven year-old singer with the Clarendonians in the '60s, to his work as a slick producer and Dancehall singer in the present day, McGregor has always managed to put his own stamp on whatever reggae's current sound may be. His singing on many of Clement "Coxsone" Dodd's Studio One albums has earned him the title of living legend, satisfying many souls with his rootsy lover's tracks and laid-back vocal delivery.

<description><![CDATA[Starting at the fresh age of 12, Jacob "Killer" Miller graced many classic reggae albums with his rich vibrato and echo-imitating vocal style. Known for his solo work ("Shakey Girl", "Tenement Yard") and as frontman for Inner Circle, Miller's best work was on the classic <i>Who Say Jah No Dread</i> with Augustus Pablo and King Tubby.

<description><![CDATA[Horace Andy's haunting tenor vocals on many classic reggae albums have made him a legendary, if somewhat under-appreciated singer over the years. Recent collaborations with Massive Attack and name-drops by hip-hop artists, however, are slowly bringing this Jamaican greater fame. Andy has been creating top-notch Dub, Roots and Lovers Rock since the early '70s, drawing on Soul and R&B to generate his comforting wails.

<description><![CDATA[With more than 25 years of experience behind him, Johnny Osbourne is one of Jamaica's longest-running acts -- and one of its sweetest. Dividing his energy between Dancehall and more saccharine Lovers Rock, Osbourne sounds like a Jamaican Johnny Ace or a stray Temptation, crooning with delicate emphasis while keeping his rock, as they say, very steady.

<description><![CDATA[One of the greatest and most prolific Dancehall singers since the early 1980s, Paul has a rich, soulful voice like a honey-coated stick of butter. He releases more albums per year than many artists put out in a career, and somehow he manages to maintain an exceptional level of quality throughout. Born mostly blind, Paul has been called the "Jamaican Stevie Wonder," and he was encouraged by Wonder himself after singing with the Motown legend as a teen. In terms of his vocal style, Paul has a sweet sound similar to the great Dennis Brown with his vibrant wealth of enthusiastic energy. Part of his success stems from the excellent artists he works with -- from Sly and Robbie's Taxi label to albums with producers King Jammy, Bobby Digital and Winston Riley.

<description><![CDATA[Starting with the Soulettes, Marley began to make a name for herself as one of reggae's finest female singers. It wasn't till her co-founding of the I-Threes, with Marcia Griffith and Judy Mowatt (and marriage to Bob), that Rita became famous as a full-blown legend, known for her smooth, high voice. Marley has used her vocals to craft her own career, as well as that of her sons, on many classic reggae recordings, both as a leader and back-up singer.

<description><![CDATA[While digital rhythms were just beginning to take over in the early '80s, Tenor Saw went and released massive Dancehall hit "Ring the Alarm" over a smooth, decidedly un-digital, Dub-like groove recorded by organist Ansel Collins. His soulful vocals switched between a stinging twang and a smooth whisper, gliding over many hits (including "Fever" and "Pumpkin Belly") before his unfortunate death in 1988.

<description><![CDATA[Going against the grain has been the key to Sister Carol's success. Her lyrics reject the gangsta imagery of so many current artists, instead bringing a positive, provocative message to her Roots-inflected style. Her half-sung, half-rapped voice questions and cajoles, and with one foot in Dub and Reggae and the other in a toasting Dancehall style, she asserts her place as one of today's premier female DJs.

<description><![CDATA[The perfect music for a warm, romance-filled spring day. Faith's vocals are sweet as honey, coating slick Lovers Rock tracks like a reggae Al Green or Marvin Gaye. He's obviously got strong Soul influences, and his backing is always tight, especially when working with Dub-oriented production by Lee Perry or Sly & Robbie's Aggrovators.

<description><![CDATA[Derrick Harriott survived many different stages of Jamaican music, from his early Doo-Wop-inspired Soul to Rock Steady and, later, Lovers Rock and Dub. As a performer, his vocal recordings are smooth and soulful, with a light tenor falsetto reminiscent of American groups like the Temptations. He's also had a great deal of success as a producer, working on classic albums such as Jimmy Cliff's <I>Harder They Come</I> and, more characteristically, on instrumental Reggae albums in the 1970s. His sound is generally crisp and polished, with excellent musicians creating tight rhythms often featuring a smattering of percussion and the smoky organ playing of Winston Wright. Ardent fans would argue over which era was Harriott's best -- his early, laid-back Rock Steady or later masterpieces like <I>For a Fistful of Dollars</I>. Either way, expect top-level Reggae.

<description><![CDATA[Spanner Banner has a sweet voice that flows like honey over bass-thumping Dancehall tracks and slowed-down Lovers Rock. Strictly conscious lyrics come from the mouth of this talented singer, who's also the brother of Pliers.

<description><![CDATA[Ambilique developed his style working with artists like Glen Hicks and Derrick Harriot, but has finally arrived to deliver serious Roots and Lovers music. His album <i>Love's Got a Hold On Me</i> is stunning, with classic performers like Sly & Robbie, Dean Fraser and Winston Wright backing him up.

<description><![CDATA[There are lots of different beans in this Kofi -- East Coast lyrical delivery, Dancehall rhythms and tribal beats. All brewed up with a scratching DJ and hooky choruses. Best served with dancing shoes.]]></description>
