Legendary Black Uhuru, the most successful second generation reggae group, remain as one of the most dynamic and progressive reggae acts today. Black Uhuru's name comes from the East African language of Swahili meaning "Freedom." Black Uhuru was honored as the first ever recipients of the Grammy Award for Reggae Music for their 1984 album "Anthem", beating out Bob Marley and The Wailers, Steel Pulse, and Yellowman.

Black Uhuru has headlined many music festivals worldwide as well as sharing dates with groups such as The Rolling Stones, The Clash, The Talking Heads, and The Police. They were voted the number one reggae band in the Rolling Stone's critics' poll. Black Uhuru's album "Red" was also voted 24th in Rolling Stones' Top 100 albums of the Decade for 1980-1990, and were featured by many critics in their year-end Top Ten Lists.

Black Uhuru garnered a Billboard No. 1 hit for World Music in the 90's. Remaining steadfast in their beliefs, they recorded and shot the video for the uplifting song "Tip of the Iceberg" with Rap icon Ice-T, on the smoldering streets of Los Angeles during the 1992 riots.

Black Uhuru, led by Duckie "Gong" Simpson, performed to thousands both headlining and also sharing billing on an extensive 2001 European and South American reggae and pop festival tour.

Black Uhuru unleashes their long and rich musical history and dynasty upon the world with an exciting live show. Everybody say Rasta! Rasta!

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO BOOK/HIRE BLACK UHURU?
(i.e., what is the booking fee to hire BLACK UHURU for an event?)
(i.e., what is BLACK UHURU booking fee to perform at an event?)

Official booking fees for BLACK UHURU, or any other celebrity, are determined based on a number of factors and may change at any time without prior notice.

Factors influencing pricing vary and may include date, location, type of event, whether a private party or a public concert, the artist's calendar, whether the artist is on tour or not, how well tickets are selling at the artist's concerts, the current demand for the artist's music, market activity, etc.

As you might expect, the more in-demand the artist is, the more buyers are prepared to pay. Of course, this causes the artist's price to increase as the artist becomes more popular or decrease when the artist becomes less popular.

Exclusive agents with exclusive representation frequently quote a range instead of a specific price, since changes can occur at any time. Generally, the artist's manager has a role in the decision to accept any particular offer from a talent buyer.

To learn the most current artist's pricing, or the estimated artist's fee for your particular event, simply click on the "Let's Get Started!" link found on this page. Then, send us your request for booking information.
