If James Brown was the Master of American R and B jive, then Jamaican Reggae has its Supreme Stalwart in U-Roy probably the most influential DJ ever to walk the earth.👍🔊🔊🔊
RIP...daddy U Roy was a true legend...and for me was always for always love and peace and a laid back attitude to life...loved the man and his DJ toasting...x He was the best..
Thank you Sir Daddy U Roy, for what you have done not only for Jamaican music and culture but, for what you have done for the music industry across the board, we say once again thank you. RIEP my brother.

Sorry black Americans already had a tradition of rap before anyone ever knew of this dude. The ska pioneers were emulating rnb music and trying to rap like Louie Jordan and Jocko Henderson.
count machukie/king stitt were the first two dj;s DADDY U ROY took it to another level and to the world is voice still same as how it was when he first start out . my favourite vetran toasters my two favourites were i roy and u roy.i rate ranking trevor big youth,shorty d president the list goes on but u roy& i roy two of the greatest. very sad day r i p the teacher u roy. your respect is global.
Count Matchuki and King Stiitt were Toasters....their talks weren’t melodic. U Roy had melody and flow. So yes he didn’t initiate it but his style is what others emulated; evolving to what the genre is presently.
Much love and Jah love to his family... Very thankful to have been blessed to have heard and met such a talented conscious toaster!! Love you!! 🇯🇲🔥❤️💛💚

The places that Daddy Roy named that rude boys came from in his youth days are the same places that rude boys come from in 2021. Some communities are cursed. RIP to a legend
Listening to UROY himself talking 👄 I don't haveto read no books, or Listening to someone else. Because he was born in the 1940s and I was born in the 1950s and, I have known him in person since 1968.There is a lot of younger generation in Jamaica 🇯🇲 does not know, the intricacies about the history of the Jamaican music industry. Where some people is claiming to be the originator of certain things, which is not true at all. The man 👨 who really started the development of the Jamaican music, was a man named Vere John talented music show. He helps to developed the American music industry born UROY, Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, John Holt, Millie Small, Dobby Dobson, Ken Parker, Alton Ellis, just to named named a few of them. He left Jamaica in 1924 to New York city, where he started his music talented music searching for talents. He returned to Jamaica in 1939 and started to searching for talents, where he found the Wailers, John Holt, Millie Small, Dobby Dobson, Alton Ellis, Hortense Ellis, Desmond Decker, just to named a few of them. I remembered as a boy 👦 growing up, I useto listened to his talent contests show on RJR radio 📻 station on a Sunday. He died in 1966,so most Jamaicans does not know all those things at all. I remembered Listening to Machukie, and King 🤴 Stitch before UROY got popular. When he released those songs, and the song that made him very popular ahead of King Stitch was. Wear you to ball in the 1960s, it was very popular. But King Stitch 🤴 was the first DJ to be crowned as King 🤴 of the dancehall, but King 🤴 Stitch was good back in his days. The ugly one as they useto called him, back in the days. If you want to see King Stitch 🤴 you would see and Bunny Grant, at the corner of East Street corner and east Queen 👸 Street and a group of guys 👦 there talking 👄 to them. Anyway UROY helped to lift the reggae music to a higher height, there is no joke about it. Because most of the DJS back then after him,useto copy him. Like IRoy,Dennis Alcapone, they sound like UROY 👍, but Big Youth was quiet different in his own style, Ranking Trevor, UBrown,Ranking Joe, Wilton Irie, General Echo, in the early 1970s. But UROY is the best to hold a mikephone, he is very smooth like a lizard 🦎 on a limb.Very good timing, you can hear everything he said. I take in a few of dance 💃 when he useto played for King Tubbys 🤴 in the 1960s and early 1970s, I never useto followed his sound at all. But I take in a few of his dance when Ranking Joe was the leading DJ there, Ranking Joe was really good sound like Daddy UROY at 1st ,then he changed a few of his styles. I would like to hear something from Ranking Joe, and if he is going to his Godfather funeral. Daddy UROY.
He has NOTHING to do with hip hop. He copied Black American Djs Jive Talk. American's didn't get SHIT from U-Roy, nobody in the U.S. knew who "U-Roy" is even back when he was active.
Correction there,his name was Derrick Adair,who was from Flecthers land..daddy Uroy lived with the lady for over 40 add yrs and didn't marry her,smh.. condolences to u M.....
@@daveroberts6951 He had absolutely nothing to do with rap. This is a downright lie. U-Roy copied Black American DJs and musicians "jive-talk". Rapping comes directly from Black American culture. Only person he may have influenced are Jamaicans who were oblivious to the culture that already existed.
@TenderViddlez NO DEMON. HE IS THE FOUNDATION AND COOL HERC IS KNOW TO BE THE FIRST RAPPER AND EVEN HE HAD TO BOW TO THE GOD. LITTLE CLOWN. ALL YOU HAVE IS YOU FEELINGS AND YOUR OPINIONS. LOLOLOL. WE HAVE AN ENTIRE GENRE AND EVEN RAP AKA HIP HOP ALWAYS USING REGGAE SOUNDS AND JAMAICAN LINGO BECAUSE JAMAICA IS THE ROOTS OF THEIR CULTURE.. YOU DEMONS JUST BITTER AND FULL OF HATE😂😂😂😂
Listening to you Milford Williams talking 👄 about UROY is the origator of DJ or toasting ,it is not true at all. I know UROY in Person from 1968 when he was at King 🤴 Tubbys Hi-fi. I loved daddy UROY yes,but the originator is Machukie followed by King Stitch 🤴. I remembered the days in the 1960s when King Stitch 🤴 was the most popular DJ in Jamaica, ahead of UROY. When they crowned Stitch as King 🤴 of the dancehall, I know both of them. UROY only becomes popular than King Stitch 🤴 wear you to the ball.
@Ross micheal I don't know how old are you so I am not going to go back and forth with you. Because King Stitch 🤴 have music out on the streets long before UROY, and he was in England 🇬🇧 for a while. The word originator means that you are the very 1st person to do it,is when Uroy released two of his songs in 1969.He because very popular, through the radio 📻, when he and King Stitch was going at each other. Until King Stitch 🤴 back out of the feud, Stitch was crowned by the people 😢 as the king of Dancehall, that is why he was called King Stitch 🤴. He traveled a few countries too,only because he was ugly 💙. But he took away 💙 nough man 👨 woman, make them 💙 sing songs about him. King Stitch 🤴 useto played Coxenne number one sound system, and UROY played the number two. So tell me what you learned from there,that Stitch useto carry more crowd than UROY, ok.I don't haveto read no books for other people opinions, because I useto dance to both of them sound systems, back in the 1960s and 70s. Nobody is trying to give King 🤴 no rating, just like King Tubbys was crowned as the best sound system in Jamaica. Who you hear people talked about Stone Love, Gemini, Killermanjaro, you named it and. None of them never played at the national stadium 🏟., also the national arena and. King Tubbys 🤴 played there for several years, because he was really big and powerful over the rest of sound systems. King Tubbys useto have his own radio station by his studio 🎙, because he built his own amplifiers and for other people. You can go on the internet and Google King Tubbys 🤴 Hi power, ok.
@Ross micheal Shabby Ranks 👌 have toured a lot of countries just like King yellow man, and Shabby Ranks was the first DJ 👌 to win two Grammy awards 😀. I know Shabby from he was going to Dunhood Technical high school, at that time. He was called co pilot, before he changed his name to Shabby Ranks. He took his name from a bad man named Shabby Adier,who was a bank robber. The police officers killed him in Tivoli Gardens community, into a shootout. After robbing the bank on Windward road, that guy is from Fletcher Land.
A rudeboy called Froggy AKA U Roy Junior who followed U Roy & King Tubbys sound he was a badman who love gun and eventually get killed by police. Bad bad DJ too RIP to both of them

Big respect to U-Roy the Originator, the Godfather of Dancehall in Jamaica and Rapping in the U.S.
He’s not The Godfather of rapping, he got toasting from Black Americans and he (U Roy) credits Louis Jordan as the first rapper.
Sorry black Americans already had a tradition of rap before anyone ever knew of this dude. The ska pioneers were emulating rnb music and trying to rap like Louie Jordan and Jocko Henderson.
We Give Thanks fi everything Daddy U-Roy Love we Love U plenty 💯

Count Matchuki and King Stiitt were Toasters....their talks weren’t melodic. U Roy had melody and flow. So yes he didn’t initiate it but his style is what others emulated; evolving to what the genre is presently.
