Art Blakey

Arthur «Art» Blakey, også kjent som Abdullah Ibn Buhaina, (født 11. oktober 1919, død 16. oktober 1990) var en amerikansk jazz-trommeslager og bandleder. Han var, sammen med bl.a Kenny Clarke og Max Roach, en av grunnleggerne av trommestilen innen bebop. Han var kjent som en kraftfull musiker med et enormt driv.
I 1940-årene var han medlem av orkestrene til  Mary Lou Williams, Fletcher Henderson og Billy Eckstine. Han konverterte til islam under et lengre besøk i Vest-Afrika i slutten av 1940-årene og tok navnet Abdullah Ibn Buhaina i en kort periode.

I 1955 dannet han og Horace Silver The Jazz Messengers, et hard bop-band, som var en god skole for mange av de viktigste unge musikerne på 1950, 1960 og 1970 -tallet, bl.a Wayne Shorter, Freddie Hubbard, Jackie McLean, Lee Morgan, og Branford og Wynton Marsalis. Blakey videreførte bandet da Silver forlot det etter det første året, og holdt det gående med turneer til sent på 1980-tallet.
