Cutty Ranks - 1 Minute Jamaican Music Biography
Published Jun 23, 2004
Cutty Ranks replaced Shabba Ranks as the rough DJ voice in the
Home T/Cocoa Tea triumvirate. Born back in 1965 in Kingston,
Philip Thomas or Cutty Ranks, had been an important voice on
sound systems during the 80s. By the 90s he was ready for bigger
things. Thanks to the production skills of Donovan Germain, Cutty's
sharp as a rock lyrics and voice scored consistantly in the Dancehall.
Combining the Cutty Ranks 'edge' with the smooth, full-bodied
voice of Beres Hammond was a stroke of genius that worked well
for both artists. Cutty Ranks deserves to be recognized as one
of the best ever.
