ARTIST DESCRIPTION

PRINCE JAZZBO
DUBROOM NET LABEL ARTIST DESCRIPTION

WWW, August 2014 - To say that Prince Jazzbo is a legendary toaster who started recording for Studio One and Black Ark, is to ignore the fact that he is an acclaimed producer as well. Although his body passed away in 2013, we're fortunate to have recordings by this remarkable Jamaican Reggae artist and producer.

Born in Clarendon Parish, Jamaica and raised in Kingston, Linval Roy Carter (who would become known professionally as Prince Jazzbo) began his career with sound systems such as The Whip in Spanish Town. He began recording with Coxsone Dodd's Studio One label in the early 1970s under the name Prince Jazzbo, and also recorded for Glen Brown and Lee "Scratch" Perry. He went on to work on his own releases with Bunny Lee, producing as well in collaboration with many artists as a vocalist and producer for labels including his own, Ujama. The Perry-produced album Super Ape featured Jazzbo toasting on "Croaking Lizard". Jazzbo and fellow toaster I-Roy had a well reported, but friendly and mutually beneficial on-record clash during 1975, including the cuts "Straight to Jazzbo's Head" from I-Roy and the retort, "Straight to I-Roy's Head" from Prince Jazzbo.

Prince Jazzbo's early work with Clement "Coxsone" Dodd at Studio One produced several hits in 1972-1974 including: "School", "Fool For Love" and "Imperial I". His first hit in 1972 with Coxsone though was a version of Horace Andy's "Skylarking", which he re-worked as "Crabwalking". He ran the Ujama record label for many years.

MESSIAN DREAD PRESENTS A HEAVYWEIGHT DUBWISE SELECTION WITHOUT OBJECTION

WWW, August 2014 -It's been close to a decade since Messian Dread's album "Showcase" was released and it has been years since the Dubroom released anything of significance out of the studio. Now that quite a number of singles and EP's have been released this year, the time has come to present Messian Dread's first full length Dub album since ages and what an album it is: twelve top Dub shots featuring a host of legendary and skillful vocalists and much more.

Those who have been reading or following the Dubroom throughout the years, will know about the fact that after releasing countless of singles and albums in his very specific sound, Messian Dread was "completely finished". This year 2014, however, saw the Dubroom productions in quite a new sound to the surprise of some. In May, someone wrote: "Messian Dread make new Dub? I thought you were through you said on Dubroom?" as a comment on the first release in that new sound.
