Tributes to Lincoln 'Sugar' Minott

Greetings!

 

The world has been shocked to hear of the

passing of Sugar Minott.  He is a legend who

has come to touch the lives of all who heard

his music, and the music he produced.

 

The countless hours he spent developing new

and existing talent, the constant promotion he

gave to his projects, and his genuine love and

passion for the music all contributed to every

accolade he earned over his 30 plus years in

music.  He deserved it!  Visiting the Black Roots

studio gives you a first hand look at his love,

and his impact on the community.

 

When people (fans) are asked what they loved

most about Sugar, respondents weren't sure

how to answer the question as it was an equal
split in favour of his music, his live performance,

the message in the music and how he treats

the community.

 

When disc jocks (radio, dancehall and vintage

mixtapes) are asked, they talk about the vibes

in the music.  When asked, Richard Banton spoke

about the chune "Mr. DC," while Lady Loy profiled

the quality of Sugar's music and the chune "Good

Thing Going." 

 

Sugar Minott will be missed.  As we celebrate

his life, and his beautiful musical memories,

take in Lady Loy's tribute, as well as Komposti

Sound's tribute at the links below.  You can

also watch the last known interview with Sugar

as he talks about 'Holding on to Jah.'

 

As always, catch a handful of Sugar's chunes on

various riddims at 320kbps here:

Remembering Lincoln 'Sugar' Minott...

Remembering Sugar Minott…

 

 

We will never forget the vibes that filled the room when Sugar Minott’s chune “Good Thing Going” came over the radio waves on Richard Banton’s show ‘Radio Dubplate’ on CHRY 105.5 FM in Toronto, Canada.  It was the kind of vibes that caused the young radio jock to pull up the chune a few times, and caused his co-host, DJ Wiz to advise all men listening to dedicate the chune to their significant other.  It was a cover of Michael Jackson’s 1971 song, but sounded so sweet, we thought it was a brand new chune.  We all sang the chorus with Sugar on a nice ‘rock and come een’ swing as he sang “yes we have a good thing going, my girl and me.”

Today, we mourn this icon’s passing.  He was scheduled to perform with us in Toronto, Canada on May 6^th, 2010, but was unable to make it.  Some of his family attended the show, as did several of his fans.  Uncle Jonny, one of Sugar’s protégés, was determined to not let his mentor down and took to the stage, performing his chunes that were produced by Sugar.  The power and impact of Sugar’s legacy was, and is, as bright as the sun as it rises in the morning.

 

We will miss Sugar.  Though we had an issue, we were able to resolve it and move on.  We did so with respect and manners – Sugar would have it no other way and neither would we.

Today, as we travel along on our journey, we remember the great Lincoln ‘Suga Booga’ Minott.  He taught us in music, and reminds us through his passing, that we have to be good to one another.  Encourage those who need encouragement, promote those who need promotion, and fill the world with positive messages through song.

Kingston Class Reunion!

Well, well, well!  Look who's coming

to Toronto for the Kingston Class Reunion.

None other than Mr. DC himself, Sugar

Minott.

Not only will this Dancehall legend grace

us with his presence, he's bringing his band,

The Black Roots Band, which features

Tamar Minott, Popsy Bling and Devon Hype.

Not too bad!  

Opening for the great one will be Uncle Jonny,

Ammoye, and Boogie ft. 2 Mel Dube.  This

all goes down at Lula Lounge, 1585 Dundas

Street West.  Check the flyer below for more

details!
