About Black Uhuru

Black Uhuru's long success has allowed them to become ambassadors of reggae while earning several achievements in the music industry. With 14 full-length albums, 7 instrumental dub albums, and 4 live albums, they have the highest record sales in reggae music behind Bob Marley. The album "Red" was voted #23 for Rolling Stone's list of 100 Greatest Albums of the 1980s.

Aside from winning the first reggae Grammy, they have been nominated 5 more times. They are the only reggae group to have won the Diamond Awards of Excellence in 1994. Despite all of Black Uhuru's changes of different singers and musicians, the one thing that has always remained is Derrick "Duckie" Simpson. Much respect to a legendary figure for Reggae Music.

In 2018, Black Uhuru released "As The World Turns" featuring Duckie on lead. In December 2018, "As The World Turns" was nominated for the 61st Annual Grammy Awards.
