Who was Joseph Culture Hill?
Joseph Hill (January 22, 1949 – August 19, 2006) was the lead singer and songwriter for the roots reggae group Culture, most famous for their 1977 hit “Two Sevens Clash”, but also well known for their “International Herb” single. Hill recorded twenty-two albums.
Joseph Hill died on a tour bus just after entering Berlin on 19 August 2006. At his funeral in September 2006, Hill was eulogized by musicians around the world and lovers of root rock reggae and Jamaicans.
Joseph Hill was a devoted worshipper of His Majesty Haile Selassie I of Ethiopia as a member of the Rastafari movement. Indeed, Hill’s honorific/nickname, “Keeper of Zion Gate” reflects his vaunted position as one of reggae’s and Rastafari’s greatest voices.
Joseph Culture Hill’s son Kenyatta has been performing concerts with Culture, standing in on lead vocals as a tribute to his father.
Kenyatta toured extensively with his father for the last 11 years and has stated, “Since he is no longer around to do the work himself, I feel it is my duty to carry on the work. I know that he was preparing me for this.”
