dub, reggae, dancehall

I know almost nothing about this style other than that every time I hear it I love it and want to know good albums.

 

I don't know any good albums, however. I've got the madlib reggae comp from last year and some random albums... lee scratch perry, etc.

Batty bwoy get up an run

At gunshot me head back

Hear I tell him now crew

Rude bwoy no promote no nasty man

Rude bwoy no promote no nasty man

An lay down inna bed

Hug up on another

Shoot dem no come if we shot dem--

Don't want Jackie

Between di leg

You know she still naw gon fled

(Woman is di) Greatest thing

God ever put pon di land

Buju lovin dem from head

Down to foot bottom

But some man a turn around

Where dem get that from

Rude bwoy no promote the nasty man

Then his skin must peel

Burn him up bad like an old tire wheel

Gwaan buju banton yuh tough

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/b/buju_banton/boom_bye_bye.html ]

"Where the bobocloth

Dem get dat from?"

my first successful discovery. i love it. it's fantastic. i won't be turning back from here!

 

I've said it before in this forum...

 

MIDNITE is the best roots reggae band of the last 10 years...

 

For dub... The stepper dub genre is great... Mid-tempo beats lots of base and positive messages...

 

Try... Alpha and Omega... as well as Iration Steppas
