Chi รจ Maxi Priest
Maxi Priestโs velvety voice helped make him one of the worldโs biggest reggae stars in the 1980s and โ90s. Veering away from the politically inclined roots sound of Bob Marley, Priestโs R&B-leaning lovers rockโexemplified by hits like 1990โs U.S. chart topper โClose to Youโโleveraged reggaeโs easygoing syncopation for maximum knee-wobbling effect as he made audiences swoon across the UK, Europe, and the United States. Born Max Elliott in 1961 to Jamaican immigrant parents in southeast London, he grew up singing gospel with his family in a Pentecostal church before making his debut in 1981 at live dancehall performances as a member of the famed Saxon Studio International sound system. His commercial breakthrough came in 1988 with a breezy, Sly and Robbie-produced cover of Cat Stevensโ โWild Worldโ (a single from his third album, Maxi), and over the next decade he increasingly embraced elements of R&B and pop in collaborations with artists like Shaggy and Roberta Flack. He kept busy throughout the 2000s and 2010s, and his bluesy 2020 effort United State of Mind (recorded with Robin Trower and Livingstone Brown) shows Priestโs lovely voice only growing richer with time.
