There are loads of fine vocalists in the reggae world.
It's really hard to pick one.
My sunday evening choice is Freddie Mc Kay.

I wont mention Michael Rose and Burning spear because people mentioned those names already. Hugh Mundell and Johnny Osbourne but honestly, this is hard to do.
My best vocal group has to be Earth & Stone, that's not hard.

A few other great voices
Norman and Ralston Grant - ethereal
Freddie McGregor - versatile and consistent
Prince Alla - up there with the best
Joe Higgs - not the most beautiful voice, but amazing phrasing
Barrington Levy - powerful & unique
Gramps (Morgan Heritage) - like 'em or not, the guy can sing
