==Biography==
Buccaneer first came to public attention in 1994 when he had a big hit in Jamaica with "Hey Yah Hey Yah".〔Thompson, Dave (2002) ''Reggae & Caribbean Music'', Backbeat Books, ISBN 0-87930-655-6, p.49-50〕 He stood out from the crowd with his eye patch and pirate garb, and ring bleached into his hair, and had further early successes for producers Patrick Roberts and King Jammy, including collaborations with Wayne Wonder with "Sensi Ride" and "Trust" .〔〔Larkin, Colin (1998) ''The Virgin Encyclopedia of Reggae'', Virgin Books, ISBN 0-7535-0242-9, p.44-45〕 His debut album, ''Now There Goes The Neighbourhood'', was issued in 1995, with production from Roberts, Bobby Digital, Dave Kelly, and Danny Browne, and the same year he made a huge impact at the ''Reggae Sumfest'' festival.〔〔 Several of his hits were based on opera music, including his 1995 hit "Skettel Concerto", based on ''The Marriage of Figaro''.〔 Second album ''Classic'' continued the theme with tracks based on ''Moonlight Sonata'' and ''Blue Danube Waltz'', and third album ''Da Opera'' (1998) used Enya's "Orinoco Flow" as the basis for his hit "Fade Away".〔 Other hits in 1998 included "Bruk Out", a collaboration with US punk rock band Rancid.〔 Further hits followed in 1999 with "Hot Bwoy" (with Beenie Man), "Kill a Sound", "Little John Hits Medley", and in 2000 with "Hot to Ratid", and the Lexxus-produced "Freedom of Speech".〔
Buccaneer moved into production, and set up his own Opera House label.〔Jackson, Kevin (2006) "(Record Rack )'', ''Jamaica Observer'', 18 August 2006〕 He was the first to record Mavado.〔Jackson, Kevin (2006) "(Mavado's rise from the ghetto to instant fame )", ''Jamaica Observer'', 19 May 2006〕 He has also produced recordings by Vybz Kartel, Sean Paul, and Tami Chynn.〔"(Buccaneer walks comeback plank )", ''Jamaica Observer'', 8 January 2014.

A collection of older material, ''The Darkside'', was released in 2014, featuring guest performances from 112, Damian Marley, Spragga Benz, and Lady Saw.〔
