SUGAR
MINOTT - MIX UP
DJ DR TAHL RADIO PODCAST #5 |
| WWW,
October 2007 - In 18 tunes, we are
introduced to one of Reggae's sweetest
singers. Starting where he started, in
Studio One, we'll follow Sugar Minott's carrier
throughout the decades that were about to
follow.

Sugar Minott is a remarkable person within Reggae
Music. He is said to be the Godfather of Rub a
Dub, as he was (one of the) first to sing
heartically over Dub Reggae tunes. His sweet,
soulful voice is able to outdo every popular
singer of lover's tunes and not just within Reggae
Music.
Although Sugar sings the sweetest Lover's
tunes, he will also sing praises to Yesus (JAH)
many times. He will chant down Babylon, he will
sing about truths and rights. And he will combine
Lover's lyrics with Spiritual lyrics in a
righteous way, too.
Because his carrier lasts over several decades,
Sugar's material isn't limited to one particular
style of Reggae Music either. Rockers, Dancehall,
Rub a Dub style, Sugar will ride any kind of
riddim with his soulful voice.
All of this can be confirmed by listening to
the 42 minutes of Sugar's work, carefully compiled
by DJ Dr. Tahl. Nice effects take us from one
track to the next one, vinyl scratches galore, and
we'll be heavy skanking from the top to the very
last drop.
Nuff Niceness!

This week we feature artist Sugar Minott. Being the week of his birth (May 25th 1956) We span through the very beginning of Mr. Minott's career on the Studio One label, all the way through the early 90's. Sugar is one of only a handful of artists that was able to maintain there success through over thirty years of recordings. Touching down on almost every influential label including his own Black Roots. This mix we try the very impossible. Giving you a small sampling of this man's very large catalog. From Studio One, Black Roots, Trojan, Prince Jammy, Powerhouse, and Steely & Cleevy. From lovers to conscience roots and everything else along the way.
