Johnny Osbourne
Johnny Osbourne is unequivocally referred to as the "Dancehall Godfather," possessing one of the most incredibly powerful, soulful, and instantly recognizable voices in all of Jamaican music. His incredibly lengthy career spans from classic Studio One roots reggae in the early 1970s through to absolute dominance of the incredibly heavy digital dancehall era in the 1980s.
His incredibly massive, foundational anthems like "Truths and Rights," "Ice Cream Love," and "Buddy Bye" have been endlessly sampled globally, particularly within the massive UK jungle and drum & bass scenes.
