Bushman

Bushman, born Dwight Marvin Duncan in 1973 in St. Thomas, Jamaica, emerged as a pivotal figure in the roots reggae revival of the late 1990s. His deep, heartfelt baritone lent his music a solid foundation, drawing on his early experiences in church choirs and as a selector for the Black Star Line sound system. Encountering success with hits like "Grow Your Natty" and "Call the Hearse," Bushman's debut album Nyah Man Chant in 1997 garnered critical acclaim for its cohesive structure. Throughout subsequent releases, such as Total Commitment (1999) and Signs (2004), he maintained a steadfast dedication to conscious and cultural roots themes, distinguishing himself from the mainstream dancehall scene and earning recognition abroad more than in Jamaica.
