Everton Blender (born 21 November 1954) Everton Dennis Williams, in Clarendon, Jamaica) is a reggae singer and producer, known for his smooth, crooning, tenor vocals, up-tempo arrangements, and spiritually uplifting themes, successfully bridging the gap between roots reggae and dancehall.
Blender once described his songwriting process: “Well we just meditate, and a vibe just come to us, or we just sit in and bring tune from scratch without melodies or anything, and melodies come to you later”. Blender has rejected the slack lyrics that have become common in reggae, stating “If the people tell you that them want rubbish, you know say them nuff fi get rubbish. Them fi get good things fi keep them internal and external clean. Never to fail, always righteousness. That’s what we’re working for”
