Peter, affectionately called Peetah, was praised as a beloved brother, father, son, and musician who had a lasting impact on the reggae music scene. A key player in the reggae scene, Peter co-founded Morgan Heritage in 1994 with seven of his siblings. The ensemble, which began as a septet before changing into a quintet, captivated audiences with its unique sound and stirring lyrics.
Collaborating with renowned Jamaican producer Bobby Digital, Morgan Heritage put forth albums like Don’t Haffi Dread (1999) and Protect Us Jah (1997) that demonstrated their commitment to the peaceful reggae traditions and deep lyrical substance.
