Black Judah is the product of two esteemed artists, Sugar Black and Dylan Judah, who have come together and combined their extraordinary talents to create a fresh new sound for music fans of the world.
Sugar Black, a Jamaican native, discovered his musical passion singing in his school choir as a child. Motivated and extremely talented, he became the youngest apprentice of the Black Star Sound System at age twelve. As Sugar Black grew older, his career evolved. He began recording for Tony Rebel's Flames Production (Garnett Silk, Jah Mason, Ras Shiloh) and released a series of legendary singles including the 1997 hit 'Oh Jah.'
During that same year, he traveled the world taking part in the Jah By My Side international tour. Over the past decade, Sugar Black has consistently been performing and creating music. Collaborating with many of reggae music's great artists from Jamaica to Los Angeles.
Since 2004, much of that creation has been with Dylan Judah, the other half of Black Judah. Dylan Judah, a Los Angeles local, has also been involved with music since a young age. In 1995, he formed the Cannons (1995-2003), who released two well respected independently produced albums, one of which was voted best independent album of the year from Border's Books.
Dylan Judah also has a self titled solo album and dub album he co-produced with famed Jamaican engineer and producer Scientist. This launched him into non-stop club and festival performances throughout the U.S.A. and beyond.
For years now, Black Judah has been coming together and making creations with some of the music industry's top players. Currently signed to Los Angeles' Teflon Blood Records, Black Judah has been hard at work on their debut album with riddims from Firehouse, Kirk Bennett and beats from Dave Aaron (2Pac, Snoop Dogg, Ice Cube, etc.). Bringing together their creative visions, lyrical and vocal talents of Sugar Black and Dylan Judah, Black Judah has developed a conscious yet club friendly dancehall sound with tracks featuring Elephant Man, Anthony B, Warrior King, Ms. Triniti and E-Dee.
The latest single 'Mercy Please' featuring Warrior King is already steady in radio rotation and currently #2 on the HOT 102 Jamaican Reggae Chart and the album is scheduled to drop in summer 2008 followed by a Teflon Blood International tour featuring Black Judah and today's top reggae artists.
