These guys wrote lyrics that was about social commentary with a twist and humour! Yet at the end they never forget the Creator...Respect! This is the difference with some of the younger dance hall artists they lack substance so no longivity in the business just quick cash!

The 80's and 90's were the golden era in dancehall. Pure skill, talent and love. No sellouts, No thuggish rubbish, no pornography. No guns, no killing, no jealousy, no envy, no disrespect, no hatred. Just having fun. Today's dancehall is really wack compared to back then. Feeling great off the oldies but goodies.

[@joylawson49]

Those guys are the real artists who make songs about life love and about things that are going on around the community. Their music are very clean. Love their music.

This Is A Classic Example, Of Comrodery,. Because Dancehall Was [Is] ]An Extemporaneous Vibes Of Creativity. Even The Competitive Aspect Of The Culture ( Dancehall) Brought Out The Fun & Versatility In Each Opposing View & Lyricisms. . @ The End Of Ever Clash Most Of The Elders Were Still Friends. So To The Youths Of Today, Pay Attention, See How You Handle The Business, You Preserve It With Unity. The Diatribe, Fiasco, That’s Being Promoted By So Many Of Today’s Artists, This Will Be Your Undoing. So Take Stock, Learn. Big Up All Of The Foundation Artists Straight. Long Live Dancehall.
