- In 1993, underground legend Dancehall Dj Panhead was killed in what was ruled a robbery gone wrong but after three decades many commentators and fellow artistes insist his death was an outright assassination

Continue to RIP Panhead 🙏 😢 🎤🎼🎶🇯🇲🇬🇩🇹🇹🇬🇾🇺🇸.
Back in the days Panhead was one of the hot DJs played in the UK shobeen, and dancehalls, we called the illegal dance places shobeen (I am not sure how to spell it). I completely forgot about Panhead. Reggae Appreciation you are one of the best of the best. OneLove brother ❤️💛💚🖤
Why is it that anytime a reggae artist makes it big in the community they always get taken out! Hugh Mundel, Garnett Silk, Panhead, Peter Tosh, and other greats
It's madness. Jamaica beautiful but something wrong
Crab in barrel mentality is what cause it most of the time
The dirty mentality of others Jamaica xamaica is beautiful Ah Di people 😢😢😢
@edenharry2009 I believe it's because when so many come from the bottom and rise to the top some get jealous because they can't make it on their own the same with some rappers
@@snypetoppredatorfact's it's the same in America some crabs still at the bottom of the barrel believe they can't get out
Panhead and dirts man great youths 😢
Great video, never heard of him. It is very sad that even today reggae artists are being victims of gun violence like the great Tabby Diamond. RIP
Panhead was one of the most talented DJ's of his time. So sad he was taken so early his lyrics was hard.
You are killing it brethren, with these Reggae history gems. Keep up the great works ✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
Blessings ✌️ Thanks for watching
I just recently saw a video briefly speaking of his passing. I was so intrigued because I never heard of him. Thank you so much for making this video.. JAH Bless 🙏🏼💚💛♥️
Buju Banton sing "murder blood is on your shoulder" because of Panhead death
RIP Panhead & Dirtsman!! Pass around same time! Both legendary DJ’s open doors for dancehall clowns nowadays! Big up Papa San!!
I really loved Panhead. What a talented artist

Thanks for sharing ✌️
You really knew him well, i had asked him if he would join the marverley police youth club with a few of us from the community and he said yes and he joined we were at meeting's seven days of the week. All would travel to different youth clubs all over Jamaica playing football and racing against those clubs for trophies he was very fast so got a few of them. A wonderful human being and people person so sad the manner in which he died 😢😢. This presentation brought back memories of him and also sadness tear's flowing from my eyes while listening.😢😢😢😢
was a friend of mine too...but on the st mary side, used to mix for him when he used to come and DJ on Delta Force sound on fridays....at one time i had a full 90 minute cassette of him deejayng on the sound, riddim after riddim :( damn that cassette would be GOLD now.....one thing though...im almost sure the night he was killed he was coming from a dance IN MARVERLY, not Spanish Town!
Wow. Really love Panhead. He is really great Artist and a great inspiration, a mentor, and great lyricst to Dancehall Music. In fact, all of these Black messengers liberate Black minds to elevate them self and fight the government for oppression of the Black Race and that we have rights and should be treated like human beings.

Never knew an awful lot about him......Know an awful lot more know!!!
Thanks again!!
Panhead and baby Wayne 2DJ's that would have put dancehall on a level that would be so beautiful🔥🔥🔥🔥
Good video.
He was indeed a great artist AND a great person.
If his life was not cut short, he would have been one of those we call icons today. He had everything, voice, lyrics, attitude, looks and charisma plus the respect of all his peers.
The impact of his death followed the murder of DIRTSMAN two months later, did indeed bring in a massive wave of consciousness into Dancehall DJ lyrics. Even Bounty Killer made an anti-gun violence track.
Correction: PANHEAD did NOT release “HUNDREDS of singles”. A few dozen at most.
Yes, he recorded hundreds of singles he told me so personally.
The story I heard was there was an altercation in a Waterhouse studio, between Pan Head and the studio owner regarding the use of weed. The studio owner felt disrespected and sent two men to end Pan head and make it look like a robbery.
Did he really release a hundred singles? I would have thought 50 is closer to the mark...
Thanks for bringing one of the most pivotal and talented artists to the wider world, a great channel. Blessings.
I heard the studio owner and him have argument over release of song and he pop off his 🔫 on the studio owner and in Waterhouse you do that and get away with something like that because it would let the studio owner looks weak,so he pay the ultimate price with his life..🤷🏾♂️
Buju knew exactly which producer put the hit on pan head, that’s why buju never recorded for that producer again, one of who killed panhead was from in the lane in Waterhouse he is also dead 💀💀
Are you saying black Scorpio hit pinhead?
@@rohanbrown2152 u are very slow black Scorpio is nowhere in that equation read the other comments
Ending someone because of that? People wicked. It's so sad when people do these things
A now I know Panhead, having heard his name. What a great individual, police take out, is no surprise. Only the best are targeted. R.i.p Panhead 🎉
Heard of Panhead, Dirtsman and Toyan but couldn't find much on them. So sad
Punny Printer!!! Bad tune! Wicked Riddim!!! Big up Pan Head👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽
Continue Rest in Peace Panhead most of these deaths are assassination, a good reality artist is more powerful than a dirty politician, African Princess was his last recording and he was forced by Louie Culture to come in the studio and record with him and from the top of his head he sang that tune 🔥
Really? That's one of, if not, my favourite song of his and that's a very interesting backstory to that song. Thank you for sharing that
If is U.S.A. Pan Head death would never go like that , if it takes 30 years to find those killers they would brought to justice.
Great Segment I never knew how he passed! Jag Blessed
Pan head was one of the greatest artists ever
“By Far”🔥
i was in tears when i heard of his untimely death, because we were a batch of 7 young men started working at a warehouse in kingston free zone in June 1987. we became friends, PanHead and i always DJ for fun, some of the guys would beat the boxes while we took turn to dj, he was also interested in football, he was picked to played the business house league for the company, but lest than a year he was fired, he always coming to work late, and leaving early, and one day the manager catched him smoking weed, that was it for him, but we didn't know at the time that he was so big, until one day i heard a silverHawk cassette tape with him on it, shortly after i met him in downtown kingston ja, he told me that he was at the time a Christian. about a year after that, i heard him on Stone Love, Jammings, but in 1992-1993 was his biggest hits, he always told me to take up the music serious because he thinks i had some good lyrics at the time, but i was very scared because i lot of rising stars were getting killed, and when he was killed that scared me even more because i knew from my experience with him, he was a good you, and that his why i always said that i would not endorse gun songs because it may come back to hurt you. he his sadly missed by all who had known him and worked with him. if it wasn't for your refresh memory i wouldn't aware that it was so long since he had left us.
These videos are giving me an education, cheers.
Pan head and I attended Islington Secondary School, he was fun to be around, he was a playful character and trouble. I miss this youth so much St Mary has turn out some great artists. I remember when he was rob and kill in Kingston. Rest in peace Pan head
Thanks for sharing this 🙏
Love it. Thanks
great video. thank you
I kept panhead memorial 18 yrs after his passing big up maverley n arrows studio my icon in this life and the next
I remember hearing the song Black man Face n a White man heart.. excellent tune 🎶
Thank you so much for this video. Since 1995, when Prophecy came out, and I heard Capleton say "come back and hear say Pandhead skull bore" on Tour, I always wondered what that meant. And now I do.
do one on Dirtsman
Respect , Great Panhead
real bad man pan head. even bounty killa scared of him when he was alive he died right in front my gate
R.i.p. never knew how important his influence was to everyone in dancehall and the community.
It's about time they said something about him a very mannerable and respectful person also a close and personal friend of mine he was at a dance same place there in marverley with ninja man surprised to hear that he was shot and ki##ed after he left the dance.
The irony in the picture at 3:38. Garnett Silk also died way too young.
# Unfortunately CRIMINALS with badge & guns where responsible for the Premeditated assassinations of " PaN 🎶🎙️ Head " may his .. ⚰️ .. rest well AhHmen ... !
Real yute 🔥🔥🔥🔥☝🏾🇯🇲
I have a theory on why we as Jamaicans, so talented but not kind to one another are so. We all came from our ancestors who fought back but we all came from different places much like other Caribbean and African American people so we don't always show unity because our ancestors came from all over, this may be why as much as we are Jamaican and should be united, we fuss and fight. It's time to live the motto out of many one people
If I were there that night wouldn’t have been here now to write at that same time that was pregnant with his child he was such a great man even though they was looking for me to dirt me also he gawn and leave a word for me don’t let no man use me and it live in my head will never go until we meet again RIP 🪦 my dear god a god he sees and he knows 😭😭🙏🏻❤
So sad. Condolences. Authorities are very evil and wicked
Wait, you mean to say you're Pan Head's wife/mother of his children who he mentioned on "Dream Si Mi Mother"?
The dance was in maverley not Spanish town
RIP PAN HEAD , very grounded dj in his time
Legend Rest in Peace
cold bumps s i p me gee remember when me and the i a walk true nanny ville jah jah

The only heads i knew were Radio head, Talking head, Shine head and my head. But Pan head no, i man dont know. Thanks a lot iam i wiser man now.
Rest In Power Panhead.
RIP PAN HEAD G9NE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN
Why do people do this? Why? Killing off their one another. It's sad and wicked
He also had ah wicked tune called legalize it.
One of my favorites by him
I thought Dead Again was done by Junior Cat. Unless, Pan Head did his own version. 🤷🏾♂️
Do other popular DJs at the time have any knowledge of his passing?
Maverley man
beenie had something to do with this.
Why so??
Why is the video black
Because most camera back then that were very expensive when it comes to color
Pan head is not soft Ruff man rip 🪦 pan head gone too soon but that s Jamaica kill champion they don’t rise champions saddest thing about my born land
Might be jealous of fame of the assassination.
Panhead and Garnett silk must be biological brothers or I’m I seeing doubles
Pan head was bigging up Natty Morgan and dissing up the police at a dance one night. Read between the lines. Stop telling lies on Ninja man. You all talk about what you dont know too much. The English reggae journalist got it all right.
'Panhead' cannot be regarded as an icon, he barely had a hit song to his name. Panhead recorded a song in the 90's for Patrick Roberts on his Shocking Vibes label titled 'African Princess'. On a riddim taken from The Studio 1st archive named 'Full Up'. That to me was his best effort ever, the others were merely sub standards.
Most of the comments that I red on here are declaring him a "great artist", where the vast majority of them are hearing about him for the very first time. That in itself is telling you something isn't it!?.
I like telling it like it is, I just can't color coat the thing, as jus me dat!!
you have mainstream and you have underground. Panhead was a huge underground artist just about to go mainstream....people like cobra, capelton, commanche and many others looked UP to him!
This is sum hating ass comment ngl
"Punny Printer". song is a classic and sounds good. Panhead had to be one of the best.
Popular doesn't mean the best. As the other commentor says, there's well known and underground. I love Bob Marley but there are other great Jamaican artists. Sometimes it's about the push you get. How evil to kll people who want the best for their people, the police hated him as he wanted the best for others, that would diminish their influence and money. Bob said it best. You know as well that they shipped guns into Jamaica for people to destroy each other. It's not just Jamaicans though. They'll have to answer for it 😠
