Hello everyone.
So I'm looking for reggae with raspy dancehall-like voices. I'm not a very big fan of modern reggae, however, I do like the energy of many of the vocalists. Sizzla's Africa Prepare, for example, is a mediocre song with great vocal energy. Are there any artist that play heavy roots reggae, but have raspy dancehall voices?
Thanks
Raspy Reggae Voices

The raspiest, deepest growling voice may belong (Prince) Pompidou, the self-proclaimed "original rockstone voice". Not a modern DJ (late 70's & 80's), but a fore-bearer of the style you are looking for.

Not really raspy, but does have "great vocal energy", I'd say.Mick Sleeper wrote:Mystikal Gong wrote :Try Richie Spice as well

Re: Raspy Reggae Voices
Uglyman has the similar/same rockstone-style. I guess Pampidoo was the originator though?davek wrote:The raspiest, deepest growling voice may belong (Prince) Pompidou, the self-proclaimed "original rockstone voice".
