Note: Babylon is a term often used by reggae musicians to symbolize evil or oppressive forces, systems or governments, in more simple terms Babylon/Babylonian can also mean something/anyone evil, or corrupt.

Black Uhuru is a Jamaican reggae group formed in 1972, initially as Uhuru (Swahili for 'freedom'). The group has undergone several line-up changes over the years, with Derrick "Duckie" Simpson as the mainstay. They had their most successful period in the 1980s, with their album "Anthem" winning the first ever Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album in 1985.
Oscar Hibbert (25 August 1958 – 11 April 2005), better known as Junior Delgado, was a reggae singer, famed for his roots style.
Born in 1958 in Kingston, Jamaica, Junior Hibbert (as he was then known) performed in talent shows before forming the group Time Unlimited in the early 1970s, the group recording for Lee Perry and Duke Reid and having a hit with "Reaction".
He recorded solo material in the mid-1970s with Rupie Edwards (both as Junior Hibbert and The Heaven Singers), and the group also recorded for Tommy Cowan and Bunny Lee before Hibbert left the group and began recording as Junior Delgado. He recorded for Winston Holness ("Everyday Natty") and recorded "Every Natty" under the name Jooks, before finally finding success with Dennis Brown's DEB label.
Being the very accomplished roots singer Naggo Morris was, his deep roots style perfectly complemented The Heptones’ (Earl Morgan & Barry Llewellyn) keen harmony. In this line-up, The Heptones came up with albums like “Better Days” for Winston “Niney” Holness (1978), “Good Life” for Joseph Hoo Kim of Channel One (1979), “Street Of Gold” for Park Heights Production (1981), and “Back On Top” and “In A Dancehall Style”, both on Vista Sounds(1983).
A few crucial roots reggae tunes done by Naggo Morris as solo artists are “False Rasta”, “Jah Guide”, “Down In The Ghetto”, “Our Homeland”, “Going Places” and “A True Them No Know”. Also great offerings where several 12″ releases and the early ’80s mini-album “Horace Andy Meets Naggo Morris” that were released by Bronx-based producer Lloyd “Bullwackie” Barnes on his Wackies label. Without any doubt, Naggo Morris is one of the most woefully overlooked roots singers in Jamaica.
After a 37 years career, Bunny Lie Lie aka Bunny Lye Lye still singing the Lover RockReggae/Soul/Dub,
Bunny Lie Lie started to sing at the age of 12 years old, in Spanish Town. His first song was recorded in Joe Gibbs’s Studio, called “Got To Be Sure”.
Bunny then went on to enter into the Recording Business, where he successfully started with a hit song song in 1978, called “Miss Popular”. (Joe Gibbs Recording Studio)
Through regular exposure and consistency in his performances, Bunny naturally earned his reputation as a “Top Class Artist”, which gave him the opportunity to audition with Mr. Buggy Nose
himself, in a special event called “New Talent”.
Lloyd Woodrowe James (born 26 October 1947) better known as Prince Jammy or King Jammy, is a Jamaican dub mixer, sound system owner and record producer. He began his musical career as a dub master at King Tubby's recording studio. His dubs are known for their clear sound and use of effects.
After earning money from building amplifiers and repairing electrical equipment from his mother's house in Waterhouse in the late 1960s, he started his own sound system.[4] He also built equipment for other local systems.
