Jurors returned their verdict on Tuesday after deliberating for 11 hours over two days.
The 37-year-old Banton, was on trial on accusations that he conspired with two other men in setting up a drug deal in December of 2009. His album "Before the Dawn" won a Grammy last week for best reggae album.
Banton was charged with conspiracy to possess with the intent to distribute cocaine, among other counts. This is Banton's second trial. A jury deadlocked in his first trial last year.
Banton could face up to 20 years in jail.
