Sugar Minott's Youth Promotion

Sugar Minott's Youth Promotion

Productions & releases from 1979 to around 1988

Lincoln 'Sugar' Minott set up both of his labels, BLACK ROOTS & YOUTH PROMOTION, in 1979 following his success as a recording artist at Studio One, joe Gibbs, Channel One & elsewhere in order to better control his own music and to support talented youths from his local Maxfield Park home in Kingston. After a promising start YP output ceased in 1980 due to the singer's exploding popularity and fame leading to a couple of remarkable years absent from Jamaica, recording in and touring the UK and around the world.  On his return home late in 1982 Sugar picked up where he'd left off with a vengeance, putting much time and energy into the project for the rest of the decade and then into the 1990s and beyond.

Lincoln nurtured many talents, notably Captain Sinbad, Triston Palmer, Junior Reid, Little John, Yami Bolo, Trevor Hartley, Colourman & Tenor Saw. Many veterans and established stars also passed through to ketch a likkle a di Sugar vibes. The popular YOUTHMAN PROMOTION SOUND SYSTEM  was central to the operation, lending the youths space and the gear to practice and a platform on which to perform and make their names in public.
