Macka B is one of Britain's most influential dancehall toasters, he pushed the music back toward a Rastafarian political consciousness.

His rough, gravely vocals give him an instantly identifiable sound. Although the vast majority of Macka B's material is devoted to spiritual and social messages, he also lightens the mood with perceptive, humorous material.

He has shunned aspirations for a commercial crossover, however, staying true to the sound and spirit of his roots but playing shows worldwide to likeminded followers.

Macka.B will release a new album 'Change the World' in February 2012 on his own Chinelo Records.
