TRISTON PALMER
For over twenty years, Triston Palma has been delighting listeners around the world with his sweet voice and cultural vibes. Though reggae has gone through many changes since the '70s, Triston has endured, always staying true to roots and culture. He has given reggae one of its biggest dancehall anthems, "Entertainment," which still rams the dance whenever it is played, and he has scored hits around the world up to this day.
Triston Palma was born in 1962 in Waltham Park, Kingston 13, Jamaica. By the time he was just ten years old, he was singing backing vocals for Sugar Minott and Tony Tuff, as well as singing with Earl "Chinna" Smith's Soul Syndicate band. While still very young, Triston recorded his first single, "Love Is A Message," for Bunny Lee's Justice label. Throughout his teens, Triston's reputation as a sweet voiced vocalist continued to grow, culminating in his breakout performance in 1979 at the General Penitentiary Memorial Concert for Claudie Massop, which also featured Bob Marley. Around the same time, Triston started his own label, Black Solidarity, with Ossie Thomas. His first big hit on the label was "A-Class Girl," which was followed by "I'm Ready," "Susan," "What A Bubbling," and "Spliff Tale." All of these tunes were number one hits on the Jamaican charts.
As the '80s began, the best was yet to come. Jah Thomas, who had been residing in England, came over to Jamaica to check out the young singer everyone was talking about. Their association led to one of the biggest dancehall hits of all time: the aforementioned "Entertainment." Triston recorded over thirty more tunes for Jah Thomas in the early '80s, including "Give Me A Chance" and "Joker Smoker." At one point, Triston had nine songs in Jamaica's Top 40 at the same time, and this was before he had even reached the age of twenty! Also in the early '80s, Triston recorded a couple of albums for Linval Thompson, as well as a few tracks for Henry "Junjo" Lawes, two of the biggest producers of the day. His song "Folly Ranking" was a big hit for producer George Phang. Triston also recorded for, and sing with, Sugar Minott's Black Roots label and Youth Promotion sound system. Two of his efforts from this time, "Mathematics Love" and "School Days," can be found on Easy Star Records' Hidden Treasures (ES-1003) and Hidden Treasures Volume Two (ES-1005), respectively.
