If you could put his style and voice into words, it would be mystical. A combination of earthliness and talent. On the album "Jah Guide" which is bound to become a chart-topper, Richie Roots styling is pure and smooth. The flow is effortless, and upon hearing, the listener instantly recognizes the unmistakable voice of Richie Roots at the microphone. Everyone is sure to have a favorite on this album.
Released on the Black Mind label, Jah Guide will have the people pumping as soon as it hit the street. Before coming to the United States, Richie Roots was with Winston(Merri Tone)Blake, and sang on stages with bands like Zap Pow, Inner Circles, Charles Hanna And The Graduates, Hells Angel, and sang with artists like Dennis Brown, and Jacob Miller.But because of him being in the army, his flexibility was limited.
Richie Roots migrated to the United States in 1980. He was re-discovered by friends who urged him to sing. He started singing in dance halls with sounds like Black Ovation, Silver Shadow, Fatal Attraction, Jamerican, Pappa Moke High Power, and Down Beat The Ruler, and on stages with band like Exchange, Music Masters and others, with artists like Jose Whales, Nicodemus, Ninja Man, Tiger, Victor Ranks, Mad Cobra, Lecturer, Ragga Lox, Horace Andy, Glen Washington, Half Pint, and others.
I worked with artist like, Capleton, Kulcha Knox, Uplifter, Prince Pankhi, Ragga Lox, Zahaire, Jah Bless, Joseph I, and many others
