- Shabba Ranks (born Rexton Rawlston Fernando Gordon, 17 January 1966, Sturgetown, St. Ann, Jamaica) is a Jamaican dancehall/ragga recording artist. Allmusic music journalist Steve Huey states - "During his heyday, Shabba Ranks was arguably the most popular dancehall toaster in the world". "He was a massive crossover success in the United States, thanks to an openly commercial hybrid of reggae and hip hop commonly known as reggae fusion, and also to prominent duet partners like Maxi Priest, Johnny Gill, and KRS-One". "All of this brought him several hit singles and albums on the U.S. R&B chart in the early 1990s, and made him the first dancehall artist to win a Grammy Award". "Ranks' distinctive, booming growl of a voice earned him many imitators, and his sex-obsessed lyrics — while drawing criticism for their unrelenting "slackness" — made him one of dancehall's hottest sex symbols". "Ranks' early success also helped pave the way for even bigger crossovers by artists like Shaggy and Sean Paul".

- Shabba Ranks on jamaikalainen ragga-artisti. Shabba oli suosituin artisti lajityypissään ennen Shaggya. Shabba teki yhteistyötä monien tunnettujen brittiläisten ja amerikkalaisten alan henkilöiden kuten KRS Onen, Chubb Rockin, Coccoa Tean, Crystalin, Mykal Rosen, Johnny Gillin ja jopa rock and rollin pioneerin Chuck Berryn kanssa. Shabba Ranksin tunnetuin kappale hänen kotimaansa ulkopuolella oli "Mr. Loverman". Muita suosittuja kappaleita olivat mm. "Respect", "No Mama Man", "Get Up Stand Up And Rock", "Caan Dun" ja "Ting A Ling". Useiden kappaleiden sanoitukset olivat jyrkästi homoseksuaalisuutta vastustavia, mihin myös hänen lopullinen kansainvälinen läpimurtonsa kariutui. Shabba ei kuitenkaan ollut ainoa lajissaan, vaan homofobiset näkemykset kuuluvat melko olennaisena osana myös muiden suosittujen jamaikalaisten lajityypin artistien kuten Buju Bantonin, Beenie Manin, Elephant Manin ja Sizzlan kappaleiden sanoituksiin. Ryvettyneestä maineestaan huolimatta Shabba Ranks sai kaksi Grammy-palkintoa.
