    Keith Blake (born 10 May 1950), better known as Prince Alla (sometimes Prince Allah) is a Jamaican roots reggae singer whose career began in the 1960s, and has continued with a string of releases into the 2000s.
    Born in St. Elizabeth, and raised in Greenwich Town, Kingston, Jamaica, Blake's career began in the vocal group The Leaders with Milton Henry and Roy Palmer, who recorded three tracks for producer Joe Gibbs in the late 1960s. When The Leaders broke up, Blake continued to work with Gibbs, who issued his debut solo release, "Woo Oh Oh". Blake had been interested in the Rastafari movement since he had a vision as a child, and in 1969, Blake's Rastafarian faith saw him get heavily involved in Jamaica's camp community, withdrawing from the music scene and living in Prince Emmanuel Edwards' camp at Bull Bay. He re-entered the music scene in the mid-1970s, releasing a single "Born a Fighter" for producer Teddy Powell, before working with Bertram Brown's Freedom Sounds, with a series of recordings, now under the name Prince Alla, that are now regarded as roots reggae classics, such as "Sun Is Shining", "Bucket Bottom", "Lot's Wife", and "Stone". He also recorded for producer Tapper Zukie, including the album Heaven Is My Roof. Continuing interest in his work saw the release of two albums of material from the 1970s on Blood & Fire records, Only Love Can Conquer and I Can Hear The Children Singing, which brought his work to a new audience. Alla continued to release records occasionally through the 1980s and 1990s, including an album with Jah Shaka. Alla has continued to be in demand with digital roots producers and has released several albums with the likes of Jah Warrior. Since 2010 Prince Alla has been touring the world with Rockers Agency and stays in popular demand for live performances across the globe.

      Give thanks for the shout out, Papa J. I am disappointed that I never captured footage of Prince Alla in his younger days. I did not see him and Fredlocks on local stage shows in the 80s. I think they were mostly touring during that period.

    Prince Allah is Roots and Roots is Prince Allah. The man's talent and vibe resisted the harshness of badmind producers and industry, and still keeps delivering pure and joyful sounds as the first day. It's great to see the respect for the artist in all the crew promoting this event. The race is not for the swift, big up prince Allah.
