How Buju Banton uses that range
Sandpaper texture rides on top of a genuinely low, heavy instrument, and the rasp is constant rather than an effect switched on for emphasis. Delivery is chanted and rhythmic, closer to declamation than to melody, with pitches often approached from below and left without vibrato. Near A4 the sound is shouted, not lifted into a lighter register. The low anchor underneath is what keeps that grain from collapsing into plain strain.
