  • Big Youth är artistnamnet på Manley Augustus Buchanan, född i Kingston, Jamaica den 19 april 1949 – en av de främsta mikrofonartisterna på 1970-talets reggaescen. Han debuterade några år senare än toasters som U-Roy, och , men han hittade sin egen stil och levererade ett mer samhällskritiskt budskap än sina kolleger. På grund av sin längd fick sitt smeknamn Big Youth redan när han i tonåren arbetade som mekaniker på hotell Sheraton i Kingston. Han tränade ofta rim och toasting för sig själv när han arbetade, och våren 1968 fick han chansen att göra ett par inhopp på ett sound system medan den ordinarie toastern tog en paus. År 1969 hade han en liten men hängiven skara fans som gillade hans gråtmilda röst och rastafarianska tolkningar av hur han och hans landsmän led. (sv)
