Selon le label Trojan Records, le Jama\u00efcain\u00a0Ewat Beckford, alias U-Roy, est d\u00e9c\u00e9d\u00e9 mercredi 17 f\u00e9vrier 2021. La sc\u00e8ne reggae est en deuil.<\/p>\n

Une nouvelle l\u00e9gende s\u2019est envol\u00e9e. L\u2019artiste jama\u00efcain Ewat Beckford, plus connu sous le nom de sc\u00e8ne U-Roy, est d\u00e9c\u00e9d\u00e9 mercredi \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e2ge de 78 ans, d\u2019apr\u00e8s le label de musique Trojan Records.

N\u00e9 \u00e0 Jones Town en 1942, il commence \u00e0 mixer des morceaux \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e2ge de 14 ans. C\u2019est en 1961 que sa carri\u00e8re musicale d\u00e9marre lorsqu\u2019il rejoint le \u00absound system\u00bb de Dickie Wong et son label Tit for Tat. Faute de moyens et n\u2019ayant pas acc\u00e8s aux salles de spectacles et aux clubs, les Jama\u00efcains plus modestes se rassemblaient dans des \u00absound system\u00bb pour diffuser leur musique dans la rue. Un concept qui devient extr\u00eamement populaire et lucratif en Jama\u00efque.<\/p>\n

\u00c0 la fin de la d\u00e9cennie, U-Roy est consid\u00e9r\u00e9 comme l\u2019un des meilleurs DJs de Kingstown, aux c\u00f4t\u00e9s de King Tubby et son c\u00e9l\u00e8bre \u00absound system\u00bb Hometown Hi-Fi. Son art du \u00abtoasting\u00bb, une technique consistant \u00e0 parler et chanter sur des rythmes reggae\/dancehall, fait de lui l\u2019un des artistes les plus populaires de la capitale. Il se met alors \u00e0 exp\u00e9rimenter de nouveaux genres comme le Dub, avec les l\u00e9gendes Lee Scratch Perry et Peter Tosh. Il lance \u00e9galement son propre \u00absound system\u00bb baptis\u00e9 \u00abStur Gav\u00bb, qui a permis de d\u00e9marrer la carri\u00e8re de nombreux\u00a0(\u2026) lire la suite sur ParisMatch en cliquant ici.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
