[UnViaje]

i forget a lot but Black Uhuru is good
Buju Banton is badazz too but hes slightly commercial n also dancehall
Bounty Killa also
that new Damian Jr. Gong Marley 'JamRock' is the shit

[3 Sheets To The Wind]

Excellent song from Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels :D
I don't really know any other "artists" sorry.

[RIP ODB]

yeah, check out damian marley. "road to zion"

[Ocram]

Hey Mellow check out Toots & the Maytals!!! :thumbsup:

[rastagal]

Damien Marley for sure, also Ku-mai is good.
Bushman, conscious lyrics.
Barrington Levy, Dennis Brown, Beenie man.
for vintage reggae, old styling
Toots and the Maytals for sure
Culture
Gladitaors

Peter Tosh Bunny Wailer.

if you need anymore, Ive a good reggae collection.

Nuff love,

Rastagal

[rastagal]

Confrontation on the jamrock cd is mindblowing the arrangement of those lyrics is something to behold, This Marley will truly step out of his fathers shadows, and be counted as a great artist and lyrisicist (spelling)

Jah Rastafari.

Excellent song from Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels :D

[UnViaje]

feelin tha same way rastagal, babies is the one that had me reminiscing. the whole album is superb. sort of an infusion of rasta n rap, respectively speaking. entirely badazz. i cant believe i left out the artists you mentioned, especially barrington levy. was just fixated on Black Uhuru's 'Sinsemilla'.

[rastagal]

There for you makes me tear up no matter how many times Ive heard it. Insnt it beautiful?
worthy succesor to his wonderful father.

[beachguy in thongs]

[rastagal]

peter tosh, another we lost to soon. his wolde semayat album is badass.
oh Bumba Clat was banned in Jamaica :)
love that.

[UnViaje]

Theres so many I still havent heard too much of, all sub genres of reggae i get into prolly like no one else round my spot
Bumba Clat, is he the sort of hardcore? Funny how the gritty reggae reminds me of nothern mexican drug lord odes, lyric wise i mean.

[rastagal]

Ive built up a decent enough collection, I usually trawl record store wherever I travel be it the carribean or camden :)

Ive rasta friends in the carribean the send me cds they keep me posted :)

[rastagal]

its very hard to find a reggae cd you wont like:) i always pick up ones Ive never heard of, they often become my favorites

[UnViaje]

thats a good connect there. closest as that i've come to was some girl in NC sending me linx to dl sites, lmao. havent heard really anything new except for that Damian Marley, I usually get the old 70's reggae, anything from then.

[rastagal]

Bumba Klat was a petor tosh song, check it:)
you'll enjoy the sentiments.

[UnViaje]
