Luciano
1993–present
Jepther McClymont (born 20 December 1964), known professionally as **Luciano** and nicknamed **The Messenjah**, is one of roots reggae's most committed spiritual voices.
His work with producer Phillip "Fatis" Burrell at Xterminator Records produced a stunning run of albums in the mid-to-late 1990s, including *Where There Is Life* (1995) and *Messenger* (1996). His soaring tenor voice and uncompromising Rastafarian message earned him widespread critical acclaim.
A prolific and consistent artist, Luciano has released over 30 albums and continues to tour and record, maintaining his reputation as one of reggae's most devoted ambassadors.
