  • Singjaying es una forma de canto vocal jamaicana típica del reggae que combina el toasting con el canto a través de la cual el cantante logra toda una serie de matices y embellecimiento tanto a nivel rítmico como de la textura vocal en las canciones. La fusión de canto con toasting se produjo en los inicios del reggae. Músicos como llevaron a cabo esa fusión en temas como “Sky Juice”, “Every Nigger Is A Star” y “Hit The Road Jack”. Ha de notarse que el término "singjay" no se aplica realmente a los deejays que pasaban a cantar, sino realmente a los cantantes que se pasaban al deejaying. Entre los primeros artistas que llevaron a cabo lo que más adelante se conocería como singjaying se encuentra , que tenía la costumbre de integrar scats muy rítmicos pero completamente carentes de significado en sus temas de roots reggae. Cuando el ritmo del reggae cambió hacia finales de los años 70 y se convirtió en lo que actualmente se conoce como "rockers", también cambió la temática. Los temas clásicos del roots iban siendo cambiados por canciones inspiradas en la vida en el dancehall. Este cambio también afectó a la forma de las vocales. Artistas como Barrington Levy, Echo Minott y Little John representan este nuevo estilo de singjay, o "rockers singjay". Hacia mediados de los 80, el estilo singjay pasó a convertirse en la forma dominante de las vocales en la música jamaicana. , Eek-A-Mouse, , King Kong, , Wayne Smith, , , Lilly Melody, Sanchez, Wayne Palmer, Thriller U, Eccleton Jarrett, y son todos singjays originales. * Datos: Q1247105 (es)
  • Singjaying is a Jamaican style of reggae vocals combining toasting and singing in an elastic format that encourages rhythmically compelling and texturally impressive vocal embellishments. The performer is called a singjay, a combination of singer and deejay. The fusion of singing and deejaying occurred early in reggae music. Artists like Big Youth combined singing and toasting on tracks like "Sky Juice", "Every Negro Is A Star" and "Hit The Road Jack". However, the term "singjay" more accurately describes the transition from singer to deejay, rather than deejay to singer. This phenomenon happened years after the deejay style had gone mainstream. Among the earliest performers of what would later be known as singjaying is Michael Rose, who used to integrate highly rhythmic but completely meaningless deejay "scatting" in his roots songs. As the rhythm of reggae changed in the late 1970s and became what is now known as "rockers" style reggae, the themes changed as well. The classic roots themes were slowly being replaced by songs inspired by life at the dancehall. A change in vocal delivery accompanied this thematic change. Artists such as Echo Minott and Little John represent this "rockers" singjay style. Half Pint, known mostly for his "lovers" style, incorporated a singjay vocal style into his classic hit "Greetings". Around the mid-80s, the singjay style became the dominant and mainstream form of expression in Jamaican music. Eek-A-Mouse, Anthony Red Rose, King Kong, Pinchers, Wayne Smith, Courtney Melody, Conroy Smith, Lilly Melody, Triston Palma, Eccleton Jarrett, Nitty Gritty and Yami Bolo are all original singjays. Today's singjays include artists such as Mr. Vegas and Mavado, among others. (en)
