Creation vs Black Star ft Papa San, Dalley Man, Simple Simon, Charlie Chaplin, Joe Lickshot 1985
Tyrone Thompson, better known as Papa San, is a Jamaican reggae, dancehall and gospel singer.
He went on to become one of the major dancehall artists of the late 1980s and 1990s, with hits such as "Maddy Maddy Cry". This is also reflected in his style, as he started off as a true dancehall deejay, later adopting traits of Gospel and Christian music Since becoming a Christian he has continued to produce his roots reggae sound, but with the message of Christ to the beat instead of his previously popular secular music
In 2013, Papa San featured on Church Clothes, Volume(s) 2 by Christian Hip Hop artist Lecrae, with Andy Mineo, on the song "The Fever".
His album One Blood topped the Billboard Reggae Albums Chart in February 2014.
Charlie Chaplin rose to prominence in the early '80s during the first years of the dancehall era. In contrast to the '70s roots reggae period, with its decidedly spiritual and cultural world view, dancehall music reflected the secular world of clubs and sound system dances -- the earlier cultural bent remained, but decidedly secular and slack lyric matter came to dominate. This age-old contrast between human folly and religious salvation was first forecast in Jamaican music via the contrasting styles of the jazz and R&B-inspired ska and rocksteady of the '60s and the Rastafarian-centric roots period of the following decade; the two views have informed the music ever since, whether it's the almost comic slackness of early '90s ragga or the retro-rasta sentiment of late '90s bobo dread circles. Chaplin reflected this contrast in his own style: he embraced the modern (at the time) dancehall rhythms, but -- unlike many of his fellow DJs of the late '70s and early '80 -- he focused on cultural lyrics instead of slack subject matter.
Charlie Chaplin (born Richard Bennett) first came to prominence as a member of DJ innovator U-Roy's Stur-Gav Hi-Fi in 1980-1981. Along with fellow Stur-Gav chatter Josey Wales, Chaplin became one of the most popular DJs on the island during his stay with U-Roy, even rivaling the dancehall king of the day, Yellowman. Wales and Chaplin also gained inspiration from U-Roy, continuing the DJ tradition Roy helped launch in the late '60s by taking on some of the master's phasing style and lyrical predilections.
