One of the great success stories of the 80’s, arrived on the dancehall scene and swiftly remodeled it in his own image. Although numerous DJ’s and vocalist would rise and fall during this decade, Levy was one of the few with staying power, and he continued releasing massive hits well into the 90’s. Born in Kingston, Jamaica, as a youngster, Barrington Levy formed the Mighty Multitude with his cousin Everton Dacres.
They started off playing the sound systems and cut their first single, “My Black Girl,” in 1977. All of 14, Levy broke out his own the next year and recorded his debut solo single, A Long Time Since We Don’t Have No Love.” It didn’t have much of an impact, however the teen’s appearances in the dancehalls were eagerly awaited events. It was at one of these that Levy met former singer turned producer Junjo Lawes and Mew York-based producer Hyman “Jah Life” Wright. The pair took the youth into King Tubby’s studio, accompanied by the Roots Radics, and recorded a clutch of cuts.

I'm 42. First time ai heard this was at Casavas in Adams Morgan, DC. I'm the only non Ethiopian, Eritrean, Black guy there. I'm dancing with a lady and a dude bumps into me. I turn like oh here we go... he passes me a spliff as he's holding back a cloud and just nods. I was 23. All was right w the world.

Saw him at Reggae Sunsplash, I think in '93. (I went three years in a row; those were my most memorable music festivals!) He has such a one-of-a-kind voice.
Late side note....Hope he got paid when this song was used in the movie, " The Harder They Fall" with Idris Elba and Regina King. Be blessed people!!🎉
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 this song makes me feel great
I’m American of Dominican descent and this has always been my vibe
I've been listening to this since I was a kid and thought he meant he was large or renown until I listened to the message again closely as to how he was in a hurry to go see her 😅
GTA San Andreas truly had an amazing soundtrack and it introduced me to so many songs, and different genres, I wouldn't have known about out if it wasn't for that game.
