The African Brothers were a Jamaican reggae vocal trio formed by three Kingston teenagers – Lincoln "Sugar" Minott, Winston "Tony Tuff" Morris, and Derrick "Bubbles" Howard.
The three singers met in 1969 when "Bubbles" overheard "Sugar" Minott singing along to "Tony Tuff" playing the guitar.
[1] Morris was initially the main songwriter, being the most experienced member of the group, with Minott and Howard contributing harmony vocals.
They followed these with self-productions, including "Torturing", "Want Some Freedom", and "Practice What You Preach", several released on their own Ital label.
[1] Minott and Tuff reformed the group for a 2004 album, Mysterious Nature, also featuring Triston Palma and Ken Bob.
