Goat. I'm only 26 I wish I was born in his era. Homie is a gem very unique of most artists , talented for sure and has an angelic voice. Poor man style, no fuss no fight and this song are amongst my favorite. And he STILL SINGS like this. 😔. I know them days in Jamaica was the real peaceful days

[@Amidat]

Kingston wasn't peaceful back then... Country parishes were - but not Kingston. Back then is when country people used to call it "Kill Some City".

[@manicside5901]

@@Amidat n money was stronger then. $500 dollars was money back in the 90s. The 70s n 80s were peaceful times without a doubt.

[@dennisisaacs6978]

@@Higher_Sun_Highzak But if you actually listen to some of their interviews in their documentary (and others like Cappa) they state that Jamaicans who migrated to NYC influenced them... Especially as relates to Clarks and gold chains and the rude bwoy attitude.

[@jasonlyte-armstrong9995]

I am still sort of a noob when it comes to reggae; would this song be considered dub?

[@kwamegaman]

Jason Lyte-Armstrong this is the dub version with Jah Thomas toastin to riddim.

[@mstyles2667]

Hell yeah this is dub and if you like it look up Scientist.

[@jasonlyte-armstrong9995]

Could you perhaps recommend some of the better dub reggae songs from this era?

[@mstyles2667]

Anything by Scientist and Barry in this time period were dubtastic.

[@chome4]

Dub is the part of the tune with no vocals and maybe some effects, echo, reverb etc...

[@zepekeno93]

gregory isaacs too have sung on the same version
