Black Uhuru Biography
Derrick "Ducky" Simpson formed reggae vocal trio Black Uhuru in the late 1970s. The group went through a few incarnations--one featuring the future solo star Michael Rose and the visually arresting singer/dancer Puma Jones--before being signed by the powerful Island label. Over the course of their next three albums, Black Uhuru endeavored to take roots reggae into the future with a militant style that informed their lyrics, music, and onstage presentation, transcending many of the genre's limitations in the process.
