im sick of people bitching about suburban white kids that listen to anticon and are loners or whatever to be cool. sure theres lots of dumbass kids like that but you cant lump everyone else who likes the same things in with them, and contrary to your twisted logic, it doesnt make you any cooler to diss them. i dont live in the suburbs or listen to anticon but... i could... maybe.

 

anyway, reggae and dub are nice indeed. i dont mean to sound cheesy but bob marley is still my favorite; ive never heard any reggae, dub, ska, or anything as powerfull as bob marley's music. hoo-fuckin-ray for that.

gotta give the grandfather his props.but never mind his kids sucking up their fathers glory;except julian"jr.gong" marley, his shit is tight and original

i dont see why you have a problem with me liking marilyn manson.

hes the fuckin man. i think the music is really good even though i dont typically like rock. and i really like how he gets christians vexed like none other. i cant fucking stand uppity christians because i went to school with alot of them and they would all wear their christian bullshit shirts and crosses. then they would go and fuck their brains out at parties, make fun of people, do all types of non-christian shit - then think it was ok because they spend 45 minutes a day praising 'the good lord'. fuck them. and marilyn manson sees their hypocrisy too, and lets it be known. i like anyone who isnt afraid to take christianity head on. plus hes from south florida.

 

but anyway..

 

you really dont realize that it is considered 'hip' to like reggae?

i like reggae, but i dont tell anyone because i dont want to be considered one of the people who like reggae because its the flavor of the month.

 

dont try to tell me im wrong because im right. you might truly like reggae, i dont know. but alot of people will put up a bob marley poster on the wall because its considered cool. and play his shit while they smoke weed with their friends and tell each other 'yeah man, this is great, bob was so ahead of his time, dude'. and then when their friends leave they go back to listening to Limp Bizkit. youre crazy if you think there arent alot of people like that.

 

 

 

dude, ive never lived in suburbia and i grew up listening to reggae. sounds like youve got some issues with christian boys that like reggae or something. reggae is actually kinda similar to christianity. they consider themselves the thirteenth tribe of israel. before 1937 tons of christians smoked hash and used tinktures from cannibus extracts and shit. anyway, i know mad kids like the ones youre describing but ive never had beef with them. ive always thought they did a lot of dumb shit but i was always cool with them but ive never been really tight with any of them. i still think its annoying as fuck how they always act like steriotypical jocks from movies like varsity blues and shit and then other times they knock gangster rap and act like toy thugs and bump reggae cus they sing about weed or they see a rapper with a reggae shirt or see thugs playin reggae music in movies. but as long as theyre chill theres no need to start any shit. whatever though. im just babbling now. i need to go eat and maybe sleep or something.

that would be jimmy cliff there brah, and he's the star- the movie maker is perry henzell. jimmy smith is an organ player. maybe it was a typo- i do that sometimes- don't mind me i'm just a hater of misinformation.

deuce.

I've never heard of the 13th tribe deal, i've only been aware of the 12 tribes of Isreal. Oh and what does 1937 have to do with people smoking? Maybe you can explain this further so I understand...

punk & reggae are the majority of my vinyl, it was my dad who got me into reggae...most punks here seem to love their reggae though...anyway, some of my favourite reggae lps are...

 

king tubby : king tubby meets rockers uptown

king tubby : dub gone crazy

culture : harder than the rest

burning spear : marcus garvey

the congoes : heart of the congoes

yabby u : jesus dread

lee perry : arkology

prince far i : cry tuff dub encounter

 

other stuff would be horace andy, marcia griffiths, augustus pablo, gregory isaacs, susan cadogan, toots & the maytals, the ethiopians etc.

 

and The Harder They Come & Rockers are both excellent, not sure which i prefer, music is amazing in both...anyway, good to know so many reggae heads in here

yea. the whole 13th tribe of israel thing is just something i heard from someone who i think knows his shit somewhat. im not really sure about that but i do know it is based on those religions (the 12 tribes of israel). as far as 1937.... thats pretty much the year that the marijuana propoganda started and everyone started demonising weed. read "the emporor wears no clothes". it explains how (i want to say william but im not sure of his first name) Hearst and Anslinger and the tobacco, paper, and cotton companies conspired to outlaw hemp in america and how it spread throughout the world. before then mad american aristocrats smoked hash and used tinktures from cannibus extracts for medicines. then the government and all these companies cme out with tons of racist propoganda about how marihuana(an unfamiliar name amongst whites) was a colored person's drug and they use it to lure white women and satan and blah blah blah stupid bullshit. all along most whites didnt know that this plant called marijuana was actually the raw herb from which their ganjah hashish was made and shipped form turkey. anyway. its all hazey to me. i need to study up some more. if you want to know more you should read that book. the author is jack herer. it has a lot of cool shit in it.

 

 

but yeah. a couple more i didnt mention:

 

buju and pato(or patu. ive seen different spellings) bonton

third world

eek a mouse

rusted root

 

 

i heard jimmy cliff is a crack fiend these days. this dude i met in thailand said he saw him in concert lately and he was super thugged out with some bright red fit on and ice hangin all over the place and he was crack skinny and shit. what a waste! hes still fuckin dope though. im gonna go throw on some reggae and draw.

 

peace
