ahright unnu ease up off the rock/gothic/reggae. But unnu need fi admit that it would be unique. Who knows what will happen in the future, look at how the jamaicans trying hard to collab with americans, so unnu keep it in mind
Anyways, as gates ask "Where would you want to see Dancehall/Reggae in the upcoming years?" only swif mi see a mek a print into the questions
well thats not even the point rite now, music is mixed by similarities and those are not the easiest to find. No one knew reggae and spanish could mix, no one tried to mix rap annd alternative. no one kknew that alternative could mix with dancehall untill bounty killer did it and they just stop and it was a hit. so i say y not endorce it
tru but sum rappaz nuh beleive inna god... which reggae artiste u kno believe inna di devil

Mi sure know sey a nuh nuff reggae/dancehall artist walk wid them beliefs pon dem sleeve, u may never know what is what. A whole heap a dem may a head to obeah man and thing and even the rasta dem mek dem own religion. So the fact of the matter is that most lyrics not about God and with gothic music, most lyrics arent about the devil. Mi not even thing unnu listen to gothic music to really hear whey dem a sey.
Look inna the gothic section and listen to the lyrics of some of those gothic music and unnu wi realise sey a nuh notten bout the devil.
lol yea man, it a heat up lol i wud love to see the our muic soar to new heights like air jamaica, dem ned fi get back di love in the music and explore as much as the other genres of music. i think we should develop our own before we cross with any other music. that way more self confidence can be built in our artiste that people want to collab wit dem
lol, very true @ shardo and wif. now back to gates questions:
1. Where would you want to see Reggae/Dancehall in the Coming years? 2. How Far do you think it can reach if there is an improvement in the industry? 3. Do you think it can fully globalize with its current state?
yea man as mi say, i want our artiste to become well known because bob marley set it and no one can follow it all now. we as a people need to respect our music as well. people jus take it for granted jus because it nuh play globally but we av a strong music industry and people need to realise the strengths and erase the weeknesses
