My musical taste is as diverse as America is fucked up, btw. Sorry I hate jam bands.


Yeah, I was being provocative, but it's not about judging people by skin colour but observing majority narratives. Or, some white middle-class cunts are not ethnically Caucasian.

I know, I'm not into it, its a vanity stylee picked up by the bling rapper, floss your balls out kind of mentality that the dancehall artists brought into the JA scene and artists like Sizzla and Buju kept instigating. I love me some Sizzla to be sure, but it has made reggae a more artist oriented, vocal driven sound, and not to sweet harmonies of the rockers era, no its this tuff rude boy style, even in the roots scene. I'm trying to get a throwback thing going, and the Roots Radics last nite were rippin up the leads on the guitar keeping me inspired to know there is still an audience for that kind of reggae..
