23rd of June 2024, who is still listening?

[@jepthawilliams8413]

I man is

[@btwells72]

Here on October 1, 2024 in the Washington D.C. Area. First heard Michigan and Smiley on a trip to Ft. Lauderdale in the early '90s.... I found a reggae radio station and I set a blank cassette tape to just record as long as it would. Diseases was the track that blew my mind. Thanks for sharing!

[@rootsma5746]

Michigan and Smiley had impeccable timing and thoughtful lyrics....Big Up!

[@robertatkinson6494]

jamaicans created rap ...... this was our run dmc ..... long before run dmc

[@playinragz]

Dude, rap is so far from reggae it's like night and day. The beat, people and message totally different. Rap is based on harm reggae is based on peace

[@cosmicwisdom999]

+playinrag Actually both music are very close.....if u go back 70s, u will see that rap came from early reggae

[@cosmicwisdom999]

+playinragz early rap was also conscious

[@playinragz]

Blonde did a rap song in the 70s. A little different then the 90s. It's all good though , except rap. Comparing rap to reggae is like comparing blues to heavy metal.

[@playinragz]

Rap is poets with music. Corny , is my take. The message is beyond good. To glorify poverty is hypocritical considering everyone who hits it big moves. Gangster rappers move to white neighborhoods ASAP. What it ends up being is , " keep yourself poor while I live the good life suckers" that's rap!

[@tonyogbata2022]

Papa Michigan & General Saint! The DJ kings of my youth... Yet to be equaled!

[@dealt]

This is General Smiley

[@JuniorRodigan]

When DJ tunes actually had a song STRUCTURE.....a true classic.

[@TCMO99]

This is just so great and is proof that reggae is ten times better when done with actual musicians who actually know how to play their instruments. You can't get this sound with just sampling

[@chrisbennett606]

Tom Conroy well said

[@skylarboston8630]

@Musa Marcellus It did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D Thank you so much you saved my ass :D

[@bayokehinde4440]

Always mesmerised watching their performance on Nigerian Television (NTA 2) Lagos in the 80's

[@kingston13origin27]

[@Moneyaddthenmultiply]

[@kachaso]

[@Dave-ps3ff]

Hahaha , they are meditating ,channeling the spirit of the most high, making music that sends a message of Love, the most important commandment. They are giving glory to God You should wear it out ? Right.

[@hardcore5356]

[@imanihekima1659]

Relatives of mine attended the festival and told me that many of the artists went on much later than scheduled. This particular part of the concert was early morning. So basically everyone was knackered!

[@mistamuthafuka]

+Rankin 'Arris Probably...he was there that year and appears on the Reggae Sunspash record that came out that year. I am unaware if he was on the stage with them though as they do not appear on each others songs. The Roots Radics were the backing band for both that day.

[@mih3182]

Cheers, I bought Rod Taylor's where is your love mankind lp backed by the roots radics, it's the best reggae lp I've heard so far, check it out:)
