Re: Chronixx is San Diego mid June... - 7 days ago
Chronixx seems like quite a humble youth, with a father in the business, and many including his artist manager to attempt to show him the pratfalls of music business and give guidance. Doesn't seem like someone into any hype creating or needing to be someone besides himself on stage. Everyone gains stage presence with experience. Like romaine Virgos first SN appearance versus this tour with protoby SCRoots - SNWMF Phorum 2014
Re: Gladiators ft. Droop lion ... New music - 11 days ago
I am not sure of this but the interview I heard live today with droop lion, gitsy mike from the gladiators from on the road in France , I think they said Albert Griffiths was passed the phone and interviewed as well. Could have been one of the other Griffiths but sounded like an older gentleman. Droop Lion is a nephew of one of the gladiators, in the Gladiators lineage as he said.by SCRoots - SNWMF Phorum 2014
Re: Gladiators ft. Droop lion ... New music - 11 days ago
Anyone hip to this? Hearing the second tune right now burning and looting with gladiators ramming the riddim. This tour is selling off in France right now. Is any ones tapped into "ghetto life" or has this yet to reach CA.? I think CA and SN would receive this amazing . He won't be backed by gladiators forever so this is the summer to make it happen !by SCRoots - SNWMF Phorum 2014
Re: lorde - royals - 15 days ago
The busy refix made it new again, the only 5-6 times I heard the lordes version was from JA radio so I think the tune struck a chord in yard.seems highly portishead influenced sound and vocal delivery. At temptingly haunted? Now busy says "push up every lighta", pretty catchy riddim with busy.by SCRoots - SNWMF Phorum 2014
Re: Tribute to the legends in San Diego - 16 days ago
As shitty as an experience as you had outside Tribute to the legends , it's shocking you would presume there aren't people having the exact same problems you are having at the Carnie- Roots fest you highly rate. Why you think the Carnie-roots fest is run any different is funny to me. You should have never been treated in this manner for an event you were accredited to work and had all access lineby SCRoots - SNWMF Phorum 2014
Re: Tribute to the legends in San Diego - 17 days ago
Every scene has a complete and total clown that is the " reggae ambassador " . To cool for school, and just helpless hapless hopeless. I don't know this ambassador , but I know she is not an acceptable MC for club show , stage show, concert or festival in my times seeing her absolutely blow it. I know it's not easy, what if it was you ip there blah blah blah... Hire a respected MC or juby SCRoots - SNWMF Phorum 2014
Re: JA veterans think of Midnite? - 19 days ago
So succinct, well written and apparently the truth. I heard Muta going off about midnight in a positive way the other show but he seems to really enjoy Attempting to expose Jamaicans to non Jamaican music and point of views. He loves Dezarie and played that one liner "law fi di outlaw, law if di outlaw law if di outlaw and on and on and on"by SCRoots - SNWMF Phorum 2014

No reason for the man to stoop , the "scene" in California can get elevated to a higher lever if ones on the business side strive to keep do better than the last time. My review of the show was how I saw it , there's good and bad at every function and usually something could run smoother. If you read above as venom , so it goes.

Really good showing from Iba Mahr Friday night. Connected well with the massive. Definitely worth checking out , thinking about catching another show this weak. That said . How do you not have instrumental tracks for your riddims though? Playing your CD and singing over your recorded voice coming through the speakers seems not well put together.

Re: Everyone Wants SIZZLA - 1 year ago
I believe Sizzla is a hypocrite, that does not always practice what he preaches. The recent dealings with Mugabe in Zimbabwe, the oddness lately with the Rastafarian council, the anti gay comments/tunes. Seems like most artists don't practice what they preach. Have you seen kalonji's set? Or the Firehouse crew? Sizzla has put on a positive, empowering set without filler the 5 or so times I haveby SCRoots - SNWMF Phorum 2014
