The Drug Addiction Story of Dennis Brown

I worked personally with D Brown. He sadly died young, and was immensely talented. He was a huge star here in JA long before Money in My Pocket , following Delroy Wilson and Errol Dunkley. I choose to focus on D Brown the man, who was a people person, always joyful, never miserable, friendly with EVERYONE, always gave of his time and himself. Maybe too much. Ask anyone who knew him , they will tell you the same. I am honoured to have known D Brown, despite his problems. Big up Dennis Emmanuel Brown

No matter what Eek a mouse say Bob Dennis and Gregory were great superstars. When Eek a mouse is long forgotten those Bob Dennis and Gregory will always be remembered.

I worked for Dennis and Castro Brown at DEB music in the late 70s and early 80s. DEB wasn’t mentioned at all, it was a label that led the way for British Lovers Rock as well as releasing Jamaican artists. He also released the Wolf And Leopards album on the DEB label. He was a genuine, caring man and always supported the newer artists.

We in The UK will always ❤ U Dennis Brown. Thank you for your wonderful Timeless Classical Music! Your legacy will always reign supreme. They don’t make good music anymore Dennis. We miss u!🙏🏿❤️

I am a "veteran" of the Reggae Sunsplash in Jamaica, 83, 84, 85, 86 and 87, where I watched dozens of Reggae performers aside from assisting dozens of Reggae shows in the San Francisco Bay Area. Of all those performers I never encountered a performer that radiated more peace and happiness than Dennis Brown. As soon as Dennis would get on stage his radiant presence enveloped the audience in a wonderful feeling of bliss with his incredible voice, melodies and radiating ever present smile. While Freddie McGregor came close, Dennis outshone them all. BTW 1983 Sunsplash was my best musical experience. Staged in Freeport, Montego Bay at the Bob Marley Center. It happened about 2 weeks before Jamaica's Independence Day. Jamaica was turning 21 years of Independence from the UK. The energy was incredible, it was like, no matter your age, the whole country was turning into an adult and with the celebrations to match such an occasion. Dennis Brown was there and it was the first time I was exposed to his greatness, followed by many more and he always performed as perfectly as any human could ever wish to achieve. May he rest in Peace and he will always be remembered for his greatness and contribution to Reggae.

“Love and hate, can never be friends” R.I.P. D. Brown.
