Prince Buster war einer der wichtigsten Pioniere des Ska, der in den 1950er-Jahren in Jamaika entstand. Auch im Reggae, der sich aus jenem raschen Upbeat-Sound entwickelte, blieb der Musiker präsent.

Prince Buster war der selbst ernannte "King of Ska", landete als erster Jamaikaner einen Top-20-Hit in Großbritannien und inspirierte Bands wie Madness und The Specials.

In 2001 Buster was awarded the Order of Distinction in Jamaica for his contribution to the development of the country's music industry. He had long since received countless accolades from his peers, but it was nonetheless fitting recognition for a man whose self-proclaimed title as King of Ska was never seriously disputed.
