Re: DUB A RUB...SICK - 8 months ago

Not is you start out by saying...."this is one of my favorite songs...by Papa Levi...AND if what you do is make SICK Riddims and are not really known for being a recording artist....IMO...BIG UP CHINEY K for the riddim and this track PS it isn't like he is signing welcome to jamrock is kind of also important I suppose. The vast majority of youth have no idea who Papa Levi is...this makes

Re: Capleton cancelled in Humboldt - 8 months ago

saw King Shango last night. GREAT show! .Kulcha Knox LARGE!. Jah Thunder LARGE...Nice spot in a warehouse in SW PDX. Ital VIbes put down the sounds in between. Chalice Row was in the house and the place was PACKED. Mutant Audio sounded very good. Seen more Rasta then I have seen in a LONG time in PDX....Rasta came out of the hills for this one. NO NEGATIVE VIBES at ALL....Equal Rights and Justic

Re: What Tune had Most Influence - 8 months ago

90.7 has a history...up in PDX it is KBOO community radio...Big up Shocks of Sheba, Ital Vibes, Higher Reasoning Reggae Time and then some...for keeping the vybz to the fullest....first time reggae EVER crossed my ears was the opening theme Roots Rock Reggae from a DJ who long preceded my time

Re: buju article - 8 months ago

BUJU BANTON is probably the most famous Jamaican musician not named Marley. Jah Cure is a really good singer from Jamaica. Jah Cure went to prison for RAPE. Buju went for attempting to sell coke. I do not condone selling cocaine but in my mind it is not even in the same world as multiple men forcing a woman to have sex with them. NOW, was I there no. BUT if you are wondering what may have slowed

Re: Guns, Materialism And Hatred - 8 months ago

at some point everyone in life will be in the desert by themselves and have to make a choice. This is my personal choice. I love reggae music, I want it to be sustainable. Gun tunes and tunes about daggering women in my opinion do not improve what is already a decaying society. When I say this don't get me wrong one of my favorite artist to this day is Kartel. Why? Because I see in him the potent

Re: "Anthony-b" won't be performing in California - 8 months ago

Call it what it is. This show was a failure. someone tried to pull off a show and they failed something awful. Why even book a reggae act at a venue that shuts down at midnight? That shows a complete lack of understanding of the genre to begin with. Some people are good at putting on shows and some people are no good at it. some people think reggae is hippie music and this is how they treat it. T

Rasta Take Heed - 8 months ago

"Ras" you better know your bible. NUFF chat about judgement coming out of your camp. I say the same thing to the so called Christian Right. YOU BETTER KNOW YOUR BIBLE. I sit back long time now and listen to so called disciples of the King run their mouths about "dutty livity" etc. Do you know Jeremiah? Do you know why he came? NUFF Ras has burned the fires of judgement of his

Re: "Anthony-b" won't be performing in California - 8 months ago

not sure who is booking them etc but ZERO promotion. when I say zero I mean the promotional effort failed. I see Capleton signs every seven feet on the East side of PDX. Perhaps Capleton should hire whomever promoted this show and he might avoid being boycotted as no one will be aware of his presence. This is a joke, I am kidding but the level of promotion really needs to increase. Anthony B is a

Re: Capleton cancelled in Humboldt - 8 months ago

the good thing about Capleton and everyone who posts in here...we are still living humans. the book on us is not sealed. This is true of all mankind. Bless up. If Capleton does happen in PDX I will be there to pay my Raspect to him as a Hall of Fame artist and as a man who has taught me to stand firm in what I know to be. Bless Up Reggae world more LOVE and UNITY

Re: Capleton cancelled in Humboldt - 8 months ago

If anyone made a tune about hanging up black people the least of their worries would be having their show cancelled. the shame in this is that Capleton has so many good tunes. Capleton was the first to get me into "culture" music. Tunes like Don't Dis the Trinity, Babylon Use Dem Brain, Raggy Road etc. to make tunes about killing people really when those people have done NOTHING to you

Re: OT JON "BONES" JONES - 8 months ago

Re: Capleton cancelled in Humboldt - 8 months ago

in all seriousness this is because he isn't a US citizen. In Hip Hop people say all kinds of crazy stuff. Shows VERY rarely get boycotted or run out of town. If he wants to play shows out west it is going to have to be under the ground level. People have zero tolerance for what they consider to be "hate speech". I will not swear to it but if pressed I could probably find the quote "

I would be shocked and awed like Donny Rumsfelds war if he plays in Portland.

Re: Nasio Fontaine - 8 months ago

good to hear...it seems as if it has been long enough...perhaps a return soon. I don't think I have come across a person who doesn't enjoy his music.

Re: OT JON "BONES" JONES - 8 months ago

Jon Jones is breaking off any man free of lock down. 205 or below they are getting HOUSED. You take a guy like Junior Dos Santos from Brazil. This guy grew up in a place that makes East St Louis look like Beverly Hills. Kill of be killed and in many ways Martial Arts is what has saved them and given them a way out.....Jon Jones will one day be seen as this generations Bruce Lee. Yes this is high

Re: VI REGGAE - 8 months ago

Island Records was responsible for the commercialization of reggae. They may have done a whole lot wrong but without Island Records you wouldn't have BMW. If you don't have BMW you may not have reggae as a viable music industry.

Re: Now now, I'm Busy... - 8 months ago

because he wasn't trafficking blood diamonds. Coke sucks and if he had just been caught dealing coke as a grown man then I would be less compassionate. This just seems like an attempt by the US Government to take down anyone who ever had anything to do with Dudus.

Re: OT JON "BONES" JONES - 8 months ago

I think the "popping" in his arm was what caused the pressure to let up. I think Vitor probably felt his arm give and then he pulled it out. I agree that was close but I also like seeing Jones say he was ready to let it break if he had to. To me this is where he was really "untested". As to Dan Henderson. I think Jones will pick him to pieces. Beyond that why does UFC let old

yeah man bless..If nothing else I will get to check a lot of St John itself. Hopefully if all goes as planned it will happen at least once a year

Re: OT: ST JOHN USVI - 8 months ago

from what I understand it doesn't get more "real" then St John seeing as most of the island doesn't have people, but if you are talking about the humans then yes. Is there a ferry that goes between the two? I have no idea how far that is or if that is realistic.

Re: OT JON "BONES" JONES - 8 months ago

I like how he comes out of the corner looking like a spider on all 4's....Black McGyver too many styles
