I remember Half Pint way back from sound system days on Gemini and Black Scorpio. A lot of reality in the lyrics within his songs , I wish him all the best.

Listening to Half Point I know him pretty good,but he might not remembered me at all. I and cousin useto go by his house on Binns Road, long before he even started to do music. I am 9 years older than Half Point, I went to lived in Waterhouse in 1968 as a teenager.But the Jamaica music fraternity started with mento , long before ska, rocksteady and reggae and. The very first man in Jamaica to recorded a song was Harry Belanfonte, long before Bob Marley, and Alton Ellis.From in the 1950s ,but the man that returns to Jamaica in 1939 long before Bob Marley, Alton Ellis, Millie Small, Desmond Dekker, Roy Shirley, Toots, just to mentioned a few of them is name is John Rowling's .He is the one who discovered Bob Marley and the wailers, Alton Ellis, Millie Small, John Holt, Dobby Dobson, Desmond Dekker, Roy Shirley, vere John , just to mentioned a few of those singers. That man died in 1966 so Half Point wouldn't know nothing about Vere John. The same year Haile Selassie came to Jamaica,This man name Vere John is the one. Who really responsible for the Jamaican music fraternity, so Half Point is really missing the points. It was Prince Buster and Derrick Morgan useto run Jamaica musically in the 1960s, also Alton Ellis.Who was named the king of rocksteady,as the 1st kink of music in Jamaica,ok.

[@2011Savere]

What would they call Jamaican music today? Because to me it’s not reggae anymore. I grew up during rocksteady and reggae. Ska was before my time but growing up in Brooklyn I remember hearing it. But the music today don’t seem like reggae.
