Details:
Anthony B (aka Keith Blair) is the personification of African consciousness in Reggae. His single "Nah vote again" was a major factor in making the Jamaican elections of Thursday, December 18, 1997, the most peaceful one since gun violence was introduced in West and Central KINGSTON, prior to the elections of 1967. Like his hero, Peter Tosh, the most revolutionary of the Wailing Wailers, he is an uncompromising Pan Africanist, in the tradition of Marcus Garvey, Jamaica's first national hero and the founder and leader of the largest African organization ever, the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League, U.N.I.A. and A.C.L.

Together with Little Devon (the Half Pint sound-a-like singer) he made his debut single "The living is hard" in 1993. Anthony B tried King Jammys, Black Scorpio and other studio producers after but none saw fit to help plant musical corn of the budding genius. Undeterred he was looking for a break at Black Scorpio studio one day when Little Devon introduced him to Afrocentric producer of Garnett "Mama Africa" Silk fame, Richard "Bello" Bell of Star Trail Label fame. The rest is history or blackstory! Recordings and releases followed quickly and his first hit was "Repentance time". The bigger hits "Fire pon Rome" "Rumour" and "Raid di barn" followed in quick pursuit and
