Reggae Music

[exitspeed]

I know we have many music threads already, but I'm actually looking for some help specifically with some good reggae music. The the shit that people in Jamaica actually listen to. When we were there I heard all kinds of good shit, but didn't really ask about it when we were there.

I know Bob Marley and the Wailers...

Any other real good stuff?

There's a song from Marked for Death that is real cool.

[s13gold]

gregory issacs.

[Phlip]

Barrington Levy
Junior Reid
Lee "Scratch" Perry (Kanye sampled him for the Jay-Z song "Lucifer")


... when we start talking dancehall, we REALLY have my attention, PM me if you would like to discuss, White Mel

[qwikspool]

beenie man, bounty killa, lady saw, etc... couple of reggae rappers and singers i listen to.

[Dirty Habit]

Peter Tosh. Yellowman.

[sikkk240]

end thread..

[jrocslider]

barrington levy is one of my favorites... check him out

murderer,

etc...

[HalveBlue]

Wait, wait, wait.

There's other Raggae besides Bob Marley and the intro song from Cops?

:confused:

P.S. Keep posting suggestions so I can expand my musical horizon.

[Phlip]

Okay, I can talk Dancehall now.

I also LOVE Buju Banton, enough own all of his shit.
Capleton
Sizzla
Love him or hate him, Sean Paul is entertaining
Spragga Benz is always a good look.
Beenie Man is hit or miss, you have to be listening to the right album.
Cham (formerly "Baby Cham") is also worth a listen.

... I have more, and some VERY obscure shit as well.

And I have even more obscure shit... Alot of the era when electronic DJ's were in Jamaica hanging out with the Dancehall kings inventing Dub.

[lucky7]

i downloaded a few songs by some of these guys. im having a difficult time getting into it. then again, i cant stand bob marley. only 'reggae' ive ever really listened to is some old sublime stuff.

i personally am on a motown kick recently. and its fucking fantastic. :lol:

[Saisoku]

All I have been listening to is Dance Hall Reggae lately. All this new Rap crap is ultra horrible.

This is who I have on heavy rotation

Mavado
Tami Chynn
Beenie Man
Cham
Elephant Man
Lexxus
Buju Banton
Capelton
Sizzla

[lucky7]

i take it back. im starting to like some of this barrington levy stuff.

[exitspeed]

Werd, thanks for the suggestions. Gonna DL some this weekend.

Anything from Belly soundtrack worth noting? I know Sean Paul is on that song with DMX; Here Comes the Boom. I don't think anyone in the US knew who he was at that point. i know I didn't.

[drftwerks]

EEK A MOUSE

bitches

[Diabolical]

The music sucks IMO. Bunch of puerto ricans driving around in a lowered civics blasting that shit everywhere here.

[conner]

SOJA is fucking awesome live.

Toots and the Maytals is fucking dope as well.

Real Reggae music...NOT REGGAETON you fuckin idiot. I'm talking the real shit FROM JAMAICA. If you learned how to read, you probably wouldn't have more red spots below your name then your moms tampon on a "light day" a month before she regretfully got pregnant with you.

Now move on.

Anyone recommend Jimmy Cliff? I've seen his names mentioned.

From the soundtrack, outside of that song, no.
But watch the movie again.
When they're in the Benz in Kingston, there is a song playing called "Bashment Time," by Frisco Kid, the part where DMX shoots the guy with the Mohawk, the song is "The Right Man," also by Frisco Kid, both of them are on one album.
Another song to check into is the one they were playing at the club in Jamaica, it was a Mr. Vegas song, "Sucky Ducky" was the name of the song.
I actually watched the credits to the movie to find the names of those songs and acquire the CDs that they were on.

Heres a clue, dumbfuck

You arent black

You arent hood

you arent a gangster

you smoke ditch weed

you arent "cool" for listening to rap/hip hop/RaeGAY

When your at a light everybody is laughing at you, not thinking your a badass

The "hardest" part of your life was when your slut of a mother popped you out of her STD infected fuckhole

Have a nice day poser

[Saisoku]

Reggaton is the worst thing to ever happen to music in recent times. It's NOT reggae it's crap plain and simple.

[Phlip]

Ahh man, I went to attend to my brother's dogs and Diabolical managed to get himself pinked, dammit

That's an awesome post. Well not really, but way to go.

Now quit fuckin up my thread.


Hey Phlip, I mentioned Jimmy Cliff. Any idea if he's any good. I got his name off of Amazon's page for the Marked for Death soundtrack. A couple of the reviews on there mentioned he is really good.

I've been working on other things over the weekend and didn't get a chance to DL any of this. I'm gonna have some time tonight.

November can't come soon enough.

[S14DB]

Is Jimmy Cliff any good, lol....

[exitspeed]

Is Jimmy Cliff any good, lol....

Is that like asking if Jessica Alba is hot? :doh:

I found some t******s of his stuff.

[ManoNegra]

I love music in general and I'm sad to say this is a genre I've yet to explore. I'll try to check out some of the artists being mentioned.
Aside from Marley, I used to listen to Shabba Ranks (sp?) a lot back in HS.

[Phlip]

Is that like asking if Jessica Alba is hot? :doh:

Speaking in terms of influence and respect in the business, "Is Jimmy Cliff's stuff any good?" is very similar to your question there.
Sorry if I neglected to respond to it before, I was drinking all weekend, you know how that goes.

[VROOOM]

"listen to DJs" by Long Beach Dub Allstars got me into reggae for a while. they mention most of the artists listed on this thread in the song too

[exitspeed]

Thank you to everyone who gave suggestions. I DL'd a bunch of stuff last and listened to Peter Tosh and Jimmy Cliff ALL NIGHT! Wonderful music.

Thanks!

You have given out too much reputation in the last 24 hours, please try again later.

[az_240]

+1 for jimmy cliff!!!!! love finding new tunes

[B18C5MK1]

i never really got into reggae, but i do like some of it. especially the lyrics in most of bob marley's songs and damien's songs. i've been getting into this group called Jah Division lately... they cover Joy Division songs. pretty rad.

I ought to ban you for forgetting Buju, I have ALL of his albums, I would go as far as to call him my favorite Reggae artist. I met him back in 2000 after a show in Charlotte, he is actually a REALLY nice person, he offered to sign my copy of "Unchained Spirit." That CD is locked away now and I bought a new copy the next day to actually remain in the collection.
the new stephen marley album blows.
Wow, I am just now noticing that Stephen even HAD a new album that came out March this year.
I will listen to it before passing judgment.

[02BRB20]

yeah he had a free show down here in sofla; sort of a record release. Mr. Cheeks opened and Damien came on along with the other marleys to play with Stephen.

theres just nothing that stands out about his album, doesnt touch Bob nor Damien

[nissan240six]

good

by the way Dance hall reggae is my favorite type of music. My favorite artist : are bounti killa, vybez kartel, spragga benz, and a few others that might not ring a bell if your a newbie to dancehall. Im happy to see that more and more people are tuning into reggae in a whole. Dance hall reggae in HUGE!!! in europe, and i think even bigger in japan....enjoy!!

[S14DB]

He was pinked for that. Then Banned for calling a female member a bitch.

I know this is an old thread, but I sure enjoyed reading this seeing how I grew up on Reggae Music and all my family is from Jamaica. I'm also happy to see how many Reggae listerns are on Zilvia. If you can find any old Pinchers songs, those are good. And if you liked Belly, check out Shottas also The Harder they come is a good older movie starring Jimmy Cliff.

Thanks man. My wife and I listen to Reggae weekly. We just love it for chillin, cookin, and drinkin.

We wanna go back to Jamaica again real bad.

It's funny, every time we go we get back and we're so satisfied and we say we don't have to go back for a few years or whenever. Then a couple months goes by and we keep talking about how beautiful it is and then we start planning on going again. We probably won't make it back this year, but who knows. We didn't think we would go last year either.

We should start a Music Upload Page where we can request songs/albums and upload albums. like on megaupload, megashare and all those legal sites? theres one on another forum that i am on and check it daily and get random albums!

Shottas is one of those movies that the underground/bootleggers forced the mainstream too notice and eventually release... I'd had a burned copy of it since like late 03, and wasn't able to own it on DVD until like christmas season 06... I still watch that movie all the time, I think I will watch it again this weekend just for the hell of it.

We kinda try to avoid the things that could have the RIAA shut down the forum... Effective googling can turn up some rapidshare/zshare/megashare/etc links, I promise you.

Whenever I go on long drives, I tend to mix it up a bit and listen to a ton of different things.

Lately, I've been listening to Matisyahu.

King Without A Crown is a favorite, but the whole album is pretty good.

Obviously listen to the old school Bob Marley stuff.

It's that chill music you can just cruise to and be happy with life.

At least that's how it makes me feel.

I can't believe not too many people knows what ROOTS REGGAE is all about which is why my buddies and I started a ROOTS REGGAE band that I ended up leaving a year later due to focusing on my career, but they still play, so check them out; they're really good and original.

myspace.com/soulutionaries

I definitely would recommend you to check out Tommorrow's Bad Seeds because I played with them years back like waaaaay before they thought of their band name and I really enjoyed jamming with them. Although their music isn't roots reggae, the foundation of their music is based on reggae while adding a pop-like culture which intertwined the gap between the roots reggae generation and our generation.


Here are some real roots reggae artists:

Alton Ellis
Arthur "Duke" Reid
Bob Andy
Horace Andy
The Blues Busters
Dennis Brown
Burning Spear
The Ethiopians
The Gladiators
Humble Soul
The Congos
Seeed
Gregory Isaacs
Jah Cure
King Tubby
Jacob Miller
Misty in Roots


and basically anyone from Trojan Records is goood. Also, try searching ROOTS REGGAE in any major search engines, so y'all can educated yourself about what generation we missed.


PS, try to watch the next SOULUTIONARIES show and say what's up to me :)


JAH! RASTA FARI...

I have a TON of roots reggae on my computer, and a lot of it is just so unpolished/sloppy and musically boring that i don't care for it too much.

granted, there is also a ton of GREAT stuff. It just seems to be a lot more hit or miss with that stuff.

but it layed the foundation for what reggae has evolved to today (more like the 90's).....and for that reason i respect it. It's also fun to listen to the old reggae and hear a bunch of stuff that modern artists have sampled

PS, i'm checking out the soulutionaries right now ;)

ooooh yeeeeeah! i forgot to mention the skatalites. Soulutionaries opened for the Skatalites in many venues and the most recent one was Scotland Yard in Canoga Park a few weeks ago. Skatalites is one of my musical influences and they are really cool peeps. I got to jam with them a few times which was one of the best moments of my life. Soulutionaries is fun to watch live because you get to see exactly what's going on and how they make sounds out of their instruments especially when they jam in Dub Reggae.

[SHIFT_*grind*]

I don't know if it's "real" reggae, but I'm all about some Damien Marley. At least, that one song "Welcome to Jamrock."

[Z33dori]

Welcome to Jamrock is one of my Favs.

[Jeremiel]

how is it that you've had the opportunity to jam with all these bands?

I need some like minded peeps to jam with...but everyone's into metal and lame ass pop-rock bullshit


Yeah, I'm an old timer and music was my minor in college. I made sure I network as much as I can while I was in college and I got to meet many cool peeps. One of the cool peeps I met when I was networking was the singer of Tomorrow's Bad Seed like back in 2002. He was a singer that competed in one of those American Idol type of singing contest, but he got kicked out because of smoking herbs lol. Anyways, one day we were blazing in his back-house, I picked up his guitar, started jamming with different chords while messing around with different ways to strum it, he started freestyle singing, his homie who is now the guitar player for Tomorrow's Bad Seed jumped in the jamming session, I dropped the guitar and hopped on the keyboard, and it went on from there which is pretty much how Tomorrow's Bad Seed started, but I didn't continue playing with them because I had other priorities in life. Now, I'm hitting myself for not growing with them.

whenever you're in LA, just hit me up. I and I will jam out rock steady mon! JAH! Rasta Fari.... Allahmerci

[shishcabobers]

Bingo Bango.

Wouldn't it be more advantageous to come to SoCal? Beaches, babes, it'd be like a vacation that kills brain cells.

Plus I have the Jam garage, I love having a dad that is a musician.

Ok, you've convinced me. Shitty part about the desert is the lack of water. However, the lack of clothing on women is something that we both can enjoy.

What do you play? I play everything (everything worth playing anyways lol....drums, bass, guitar)....so i'm flexible

Seriously tho...I might be going on a ride to socali with some homies sometime within the semester. I'll let ya know!

[ESmorz]

I play the drums and only the drums. Starting to learn a bit of guitar though.

Playing the drums makes travelling a pain in the ass. Although I could fit my e-drums in a suitcase if I wasn't lazy.

ha! story of my life. hauling drums is such a pain in the ass. you got some nice e-drums? The only e-drums i've even considered playable are those like $3k Rolands with the mesh heads. Acoustic drums for life

[96Turbo]

so, it's been 4 years!

what's everyone been listening to?

I've gotten away from the traditional reggae & 3rd wave stuff and started listening to more Ska and Rocksteady. It was basically the precursor to Jamaican reggae in the 60s.

The slackers are amazing and completely underrated

:bigok:

wife wants to go, it was her idea she likes Matisyahu... :snoop:

[fyneyoungstunna]

Oh shit....white people are talking about reggae... :faint:

I think we should clear up the different geners first. Because the next person that sites Marley as the best reggae is gonna get the baby powder.

Most old heads from the yard (that's Jamaica ,for you outsiders) don't even like Marley. You guys took Marley and Pac...keep em, lol.

That said.

Red rat
Movado
Mr. Vegas
Buju Banton
Spraggah Benz
Lee "scratch"
Elephant Man
Damien Marley
Beenie Man
Even Foxy Brown had some good ones.

Theres a ton of stuff out there no matter what genere.
Most "reggae" is their equivalent to our gospel though so remember that.
