Toyan - or Ranking Toyan as he is also called - emerged in
the mid-seventies when he started to appear on the sound
system scene of Kingston JA, soon becoming a highly rated
live performer with local sounds like Social Roots and
Romantic Hi-Fi. He was heavily influenced by the deejays Big
Youth and Dillinger, whose approach he adapted when he
started his recording career with producer Don Mais of Roots
Tradition in the latter half of the seventies. It was with
Don Mais that he delivered his first strong tunes on vinyl.
However, his most notable efforts were presented to the
dancehall audience when he started to record for Henry
"Junjo" Lawes' Volcano label in the early 80s. His life and
career came to a tragic end: Toyan was murdered in 1991.
