Dennis Emmanuel Brown was born in Kingston, Jamaica in 1957. "He was dubbed "the Crown Prince of Reggae", and only his natural diffidence stood between him and even greater stardom". Dennis acquired this title in the 1980’s around the time when Bob Marley passed away. Marley’s title passed on to one of his favorite musicians. On several occasions, Marley referred to Dennis Brown as his favorite reggae musician. Brown is loved like no other reggae musician. Dennis was consistently hardworking on his music. "He is said to have made at least 78 albums for some 37 record labels, sometimes releasing six or even seven albums in a single year". He has produced more reggae classics than just about anyone else.His first hit came out in 1969, ‘No Man Is An Island’. Most would agree that the style that Dennis has used throughout his career was evident in this first hit. His style is what made him stand out from other reggae musicians. Dennis had a moving voice that remained consistent in his music throughout his career. His physical nature was appealing to all. From the soul-influenced pop reggae tunes of his earliest years, the conscious roots reggae of the 1970’s and 1980’s, and the best lovers-rock ever recorded, Dennis’ soulful style remained constant throughout his career. "Few artists could remain as consistent throughout a 30-year career as Brown, and these releases cap an incredible life while serving as a reminder of one of Jamaica’s greatest talents". While at Studio One Dennis produced another major hit, ‘If I Follow My Heart’, which was just as much as a hit as ‘No Man Is An Island’.Dennis spent the early 1970’s moving in between several studios recording for a variety of producers. Some of these producers were Lloyd Daley, Impact, Joe Gibbs, and Aquarius. During this time, Dennis’ music was becoming very popular in the mainstream reggae world. At this time, Brown moved to work with Winston ‘Niney’ Holness’s label and this was a profitable move for the young star. He recorded two albums with this label, Just Dennis and Wolf and Leopards. These two albums were recorded with a three-year space in between. Their roots characteristics clearly made them appear to be from one body of work and many claim that Wolf and Leopards was perhaps Dennis’ best work ever. His consistent voice continued through a time where reggae music was seeing a change in course. Dennis’ live shows were becoming very popular at this time. In 1979 Dennis’ hit, ‘Money In My Pocket’, was his first to hit chart territory. Around this time in the early 1980’s Brown signed with A&M Records. With this decision, he also became the co-owner of the DEB label. Brown and his cousin Castro started the label and recorded many famous reggae stars such as Junior Delgado, Black Uhuru, Ranking Joe, the Tamlins, Gregory Isaacs, and others. Dennis relied on many friends when building this company. "It was hard work. Some of these artists don’t get enough work. And sometimes artists get frustrated too. So, we try and look out for the better ones" During these years of producing and recording Brown spent most of his time in London, where he settled for most of the 1980’s. He continued to produce a number of reggae hits for several labels. "Brown’s series of reggae hits, including ‘To The Foundation for Gussie Clarke, ‘Revolution’ for Taxi or cuts on his own Yvonne’s Special label (named after his wife), saw him become one of the few established singers to ride the early dancehall boom unscathed" (Larkin, 1998). These years were prosperous for Dennis and his music and popularity continued to spread internationally.Dennis Brown’s lyrics and tone bring his listeners in close to himself. He sings about real life and shows his sincerity through his own personnel experiences. Two new CDs issued just before his passing show why the late Dennis Brown was one of Jamaica’s best-loved superstars. "I used to be a young man," the opening cut of Bless Me Jah (RAS). On the title track he admits to past mistakes, asks for forgiveness and announces a return to the roots consciousness of his early work: "I’m only a vessel, but I know a vessel must be clean," he says, not his legion of fans but to his Creator". Dennis knew the magnitude of personnel identification. He refused to give in and with the Lord by his side he would fight for a true meaning of himself. A Recent Perspective of Dennis Brown’s Life and Musical Career. Dennis Brown was perhaps one of the most productive and influential reggae musicians ever. Many reggae artists looked to Dennis Brown to find how a reggae song was sung effectively. He had tremendous knowledge and a deep understanding of melody and lyrics. He was dedicated to making music and always was looking forward into the future. He was always looking for new sound; he had an open mind to all melodies and rhythms. Brown loved to experiment and try new vibes. Dennis had a strong connection to rhythm; he worked with rhythms to create the mood of his songs. There has always been a question of how many albums Dennis produced over his career. Some people say over a hundred and some say more, his legacy of hard work and dedication to his music has sparked these rumors. Brown himself admits to making eighty albums and he claims he does not have all of them in his musical library. He explained in an interview that he would like to have copies of them all but people always ask for them and he gives them away. Brown stated that people don't want to hear that you are keeping records for the sake of an archive, they want the music so he gives it to them. This shows Dennis’ extreme generosity to his listeners. His will to spread his message and songs overcome his own personnel ties to his own creations.Dennis was well respected for his humbleness. His fame never caught up with him and because of this quality, he inspired so many artists and fans. He was always welcoming people and [would] always show up with him face in a smile. This appealing characteristic of Brown was shown through his music and admired by all. Dennis was always open to criticism from other artists and producers. He never took his knowledge and skill for granted. Dennis Brown was an intelligent artist.. He was well educated and interested in world issues, which is apparent in his lyrics. Brown was tremendously influenced by Malcolm X. He read his books and speeches. Music was very popular in the black culture in the 1970’s. Many young African Americans looked for inspiration and hope from Brown’s lyrics. They felt a strong connection to him and his music and especially during these times of racial acceptance in the 1970’s. Dennis Brown’s music was an inspiration to these people and many others during these times of inequality. He usually focused on positive points in his music, rarely touching on negative aspects of a situation. Dennis knew that people living under restrictive conditions and in poverty needed unification and guidance.Dennis Emanuel Brown died on July 1, 1999 at the University of the West Indies Hospital and no autopsy was performed. Brown became sick at the end of June after a return trip to Miami from Brazil, where he spent a month. Although Brown never contracted any sickness in Brazil many people that were with him and other bands performing there caught a virus. Brown’s brother Clarke, reported that Dennis was complaining of chills on the plane ride from Miami to Kingston, Jamaica. He checked into the hospital seven days later on June 30, 1999. Dennis Brown died the next morning. The media spread the news and that Brown had died from lung failure related to pneumonia and heart failure. Although never diagnosed, Brown was believed to have the AIDS virus and died from AIDS related pneumonia. Two former girlfriends of Brown had contracted the disease from him and had already died. Only people that knew Dennis closely knew that his health was failing and that he most likely had the disease. Several weeks before Dennis Brown’s passing Jamaica lost three popular artists, Augustus Pablo, Henry "Junjo" Lawes, and Pat "Jah Floyd" Francis. "But with Dennis, it was different. He was a reggae figurehead, never having faded from the Jamaican consciousness in his 30 year career". He was seen as a role model to all, artists and fans. The funeral was held at the National Arena on July 17 and was reported internationally by the Associated Press. "The event, organized by his colleague and friend Freddie McGregor, became a three-and-half hour musical celebration of Brown’s life. His music was performed by McGregor, John Holt, Richie Stephens, George Nooks, Maxi Priest, Shaggy, Gregory Isaacs, Ken Boothe, Carlene Davis, Marcia Griffiths, Nadine Sutherland, Heather Cummings, Pam Hill, and J.C. Lodge, all backed by Brown’s long-time associate Lloyd Parks and his We the People band". The funeral received international coverage that showed Brown’s influence on a generation of Jamaicans, whom many considered Brown to be their favorite reggae artist.Lyrical Analysis of ‘No Man Is An Island’ Written by the proverb and the Van DykesNo man is an islandNo man stands aloneTreat each man as your brotherRemember each man’s dream as your ownThese first four lines of the song are repeated throughout. I enjoyed the implications of these lines as they convey the message that in this world, we cannot live alone separate from one another. We have created this world we live in in a way that we must understand each other and work together for future progress and happiness. The last line above meant a lot to me. Treating other man’s dreams like they are your own. This means we must respect other like we respect ourselves. We must respect others lives and wishes like we respect our own.You can live in this world all by yourselfNo no no you can’t make it alone....People must treat each other with respect and treat each man as a friend. This song, with its straightforward lyrics, was applicable to modern society. Dennis Brown will continue to beat in my heart and in millions around the world.Dennis, you are missed.
