♥️💛💚Daddy U-Roy, born Ewart Beckford in 1942, was a pioneering Jamaican reggae and dancehall deejay known for popularizing the "toasting" style, which became the foundation of modern rap and DJ culture. Active since the 1960s, U-Roy’s unique approach involved talking or chanting over instrumental versions of reggae tracks, adding his own rhythm and flow. He gained prominence in the late 1960s and early 1970s, working with legendary producers like Duke Reid, King Tubby, and Lee "Scratch" Perry.
