Reggae musician known for his steady career throughout the 1990s and 2000s before his arrest for drug distribution in 2009. One day before his trial in 2011, his album Before the Dawn took the honor for Best Reggae Album at the 53rd Grammy Awards. He found his stage name when he was given the nickname "Buju," a name given to chubby babies. He further used "Banton," a word for storyteller and inspired by his hero Burro Banton.
