Dance Hall We Deh - Congratulations to the late Lincoln Sugar Minott and family Candice Minott Ace Minott Tamar Minott Kelley Gordon-Minott Skrilla Mane for the JARIA Award 2015 for YouthMan Promotion Sound System. Youthman Promotion has the distinction of starting the first dancehall crew, a phenomenon which has been emulated time and time again. The Youth Promotion crew included Yami Bolo, Michael Palmer, Junior Reid, Garnett Silk, Andi Livingston, Shalom (then known as Steve Harper), Nitty Gritty, Tenor Saw, Tony Rebel, Daddy Freddy, Color Man, Daddy Ants, Daddy Shark, Little John, Triston Palmer, Trevor Junior, Thriller,Blacka T, Dona P and many more. These artistes honed their talents at Youthman Promotion under the guidance of Sugar Minott and showcased their talent alongside a popular sound system of the same name - Youthman Promotion, which is also owned by Sugar Minott and was used to promote the stable of artistes. Sugar’s song Dancehall We Deh was the theme song for the series. After this, the word dancehall took on a new meaning and has developed into what we now regard as simply dancehall. Sugar Minott and Youthman Promotion have toured England , Asia, the United States, Europe and was one of the first reggae acts to tour Japan. In fact, his impact in Japan was so tremendous that he played a critical role in establishing Reggae in Japan. After over 60 albums and thousands of singles, Sugar Minott can be referred to as one of the fathers of the dancehall phenomenon and one of Jamaica’s most versatile and prolific singers.
