Barrington Levy for Living Proof Magazine, Issue 13. Now available for members on the Living Proof Patreon and Online Shop. Barrington Levy is a legendary Jamaican reggae artist who emerged in the late 70s and became a driving force in reggae’s evolution. Born in Kingston, Jamaica, Levy began releasing solo music at the young age of 14. His music reflects Jamaica’s late-1970s shift from roots reggae music to early dancehall; touching on social hardship, moral reflection, love songs and life in Kingston. His unmistakable delivery became central to rub-a-dub style and created a unique sound that resonated from the streets of Jamaica to the world over. The album “Here I Come”, which included the song “Under Mi Sensi”, gained instant recognition, cementing Levy as an all-time great. He became one of the key voices that presented the genre to the world and won the Best Vocalist Award at Britain’s Reggae Awards. The song, “Here I Come,” made the top 50 in the U.K., holding Guinness World Records. For Issue 13, Living Proof spent time with Barrington in Claredon, Jamaica, at his bar “Black Roses”. He is featured in conversation with Avi Gold.
