Thank you.
In the 1990s Brian and Tony Gold rocked local airwaves and stages with their great voices and infectious music.
The duo, from Portmore, St Catherine, reached great heights with 1992 single "Can You", which was the release of, produced, and arranged by Mikey Bennett on the Two Friends Records label. The track spoke to the apartheid system in South Africa and made the duo much more appealing to a wider audience.
Despite not repeating the success of this single, Brian and Tony Gold would pop up at various shows in subsequent years and went on to provide supporting vocals for diamond-selling artist Shaggy.
One member, Tony Gold, still pops up on various shows with Shaggy, but Brian Gold was ... missing in action.
That was until the latter emerged as the dreadlocked Anu Brian Gold and performed his single Take My Feet at the launch of Rebel Salute 2019, which was held at the Jamaica Pegasus Hotel in St Andrew.
“I've been to the hills. Had to find myself, found myself. Jus' a hail the King and trying to be Anu Brian. It's just the joy of music and once you are a true musician, you never stop searching. Once you find that place you just never stop searching. I wouldn't say I wasn't enjoying what I was doing, but at times you find like you can't move forward; it's like you're stuck in one place so you really have to push and find other angles, other dimensions, and that is exactly what I did.”
The artiste has rebranded himself and is now working with renowned musician Earl “Chinna” Smith and drawing on his Binghistra approach to music, which is a combination of traditional Nyahbinghi rhythms and orchestral music.
“I found out that the Nyahbinghi melodies are some of the sweetest melodies in the world. Plus the Nyahbinghi beat coincides with the heart so it relaxes you, it frees you.
Gold's appearance is distinctly different these days. He has a fully grown beard and almost waist-long locks which are part of the 'majestic changes' he has gone through in the last few years.
He was very much the dandy while a member of Brian and Tony Gold, the harmony duo which had hit songs like Can You and Irresistible. They toured the world for more than a decade as backup singers for Shaggy.
One of Gold's efforts is "Oh My Love", a cover of the Righteous Brothers' classic Unchained Melody. It was done with deejay Saba Tooth for the latter's Brimstone and Fire label. Gold said while he jumped at the chance to do the song, he is more inclined to record cultural material to reflect his Rastafarian faith.
"Wi put wi life in perspective an' realise that wi haffi do the work fi the king. If wi going to sing about the love it have to be that perfect love," he said philosophically.
He has not turned his back entirely on lovers' rock. In addition to Oh My Love, he recorded a cover of soul singer Betty Wright's Thank You for producer and longtime friend Mikey Bennett.
Even the tone of his ballads has changed, Gold pointed out.
"Wi used to tell the girl dem about love, but now it's about love on a more personal and spiritual level," he reasoned.
Born Brian Thompson in Birmingham, England, Gold says Rasta has always been part of his life. His parents were into the Black Power movement and all his siblings are Rastafarians.
Gold's last chart hit, Irresistible, was done with Tony Gold years ago for Shaggy's Big Yard label. Shortly after, he went through a spiritual conversion, and the duo split.
The two had been a team since 1986 when Brian won the Tastee Talent Contest with Tony placing second. They hooked up following the show and began recording mainly for Bennett, a member of the vocal group Home T who was fast establishing himself as a producer.
They had a golden run with Bennett and producer Gussie Clarke during the 1990s, a period of great success for dancehall. Their biggest success locally came in 1990 with the Bennett-produced Can You, a poignant take on the Apartheid system in South Africa.
Four years later, they entered the British pop chart with deejay Red Dragon on the Sly and Robbie-produced Compliments On Your Kiss.
The Golds were also in-demand backing vocalists. They can be heard on hit songs by Dennis Brown (If You Want Me), Home T (Don't Throw It All Away) Shabba Ranks, and Maxi Priest (Housecall).
While touring Japan in the late 1990s, they met Shaggy who brought them in for his Midnite Lover album. That set flopped but the follow-up, 2001's Hot Shot, was a multi-platinum monster.
Hot Shot was driven by the number one smash, It Wasn't Me, co-written by Brian Gold. The Golds toured the globe with Shaggy as Hot Shot's sales soared. They were part of his Big Yard camp which produced songs like Shaggy's Church Heathen and the catchy Irresistible, mainly for the Jamaican market.
It is important, he stressed, for his spirituality to shine through.
"Is different work now, yuh nuh. Is time fi lead home a nation."

This man is the best vocalist out of Jamaica hands down. And when you put him and Tony Gold together they're unbelievable. I wished they could have continued the journey together.
What about lukie D?
@@hubertbailey9347 Lukie D is the next best behind Brian Gold.
Dennis Brown..
Lukie D is in a class by himself. Matter of fact there’re several Jamaicans with tremendous singing abilities. Why must there be a comparison by a certain demographic when discussing people???

There arent many words that can describe that talent of Brian. This performance was so well done it made me feel so good .. If only the Jamaican promoters had any sense they would certainly have Brian & tony on a few shows ..
How am i just discovering this clean talented Rasta man? That means Jamaica's music industry was sabotaged and watered down by some people in the music industry. Listen the man's voice,you can see righteousness print pon de King Jahjah.
This man and Tony Gold do hundreds of harmony in a lot of songs , Terro Fabulous number 2 , Compliments Red Dragon , Hey Sexy Lady Shaggy , Things to do with Bounty . They have big hits like Bulls Eye , Irresistible ,Poison , Private property , Chery Baby.
The alphbet reducers ruin the music hiding talent like in favor of promoting festh and gun music to push crimes. Jah bless
He's been around from back in the days,but i haven't heard from him in a while, but you know a man has to make his family
Nuff blessings to all people. Angles voinces

Well said, Wesley.
Am confused, rasta quoting the Bible yet still they praise Selassie,, 😮
Don't be confused, Emperor Haile Selassie too quotes the Bible.
Bad
Sorry guys. Selassie is not God.
He never said He was, even "Jesus" never said He was.
Selassie dead only Jesus one can find salvation.
A jesus Christian name mi a sa brethren he is the one on only i
