When u get angry about too much Bob Marley just remember: rebel music, soul rebel, splish for my splash, exodus, talking blues, so so many hits too numerous to mention. Bob deserves all the memories.

@@Jah_Nzola please listen to all speakers in context... new orleans music influenced the evolution of reggae music but is not 'the true origin of Jamaican music'
An amazing overview of our Jamaican reggae starting from ska and rocksteady which I loved to dance to in the old days - blessings to our entertainers to continue flying the flag for Jamaica - home of reggae which is not international!
Outernational... Much classic reggae recorded &/or mixed in London/Jamdon. Babylon is/was in the hearts of the wicked 'pon Earth. Zion is amongst I & I Love & Peace.
I.realy.full joy this program it bring back alot of things to.me even santa I. Know he is.no.1 drummer I use to do a play name bald.head.rooster and he was the drummer in it an from that. Time I never see him again. But I always talk about him keep.good
Peter Macintosh's guitar playing and influence with the Wailers was key to their success... He did not love the 'Lovey dovey' music (Lovers rock) rather he sought the music to evoke awareness and change.
Pray the American Music Hall of Fame for Afro-Centric Music keep this interview for future generations. I recognize every band and music style they referenced and I have never been to Jamaica.
Listening to these guys they are missing out on a lots of things, Duke Reid is playing music long before Coxene. Before ska it was mento long before all the other music fraternity in Jamaica, he missing out on a lots of things. Alton Ellis is singing from the 1950s, long before Derrick Morgan, and Prince Buster. The song he was talking about by Derrick Morgan hey you fat man in the 1960s, I remembered when it was released. Because my step father did have a sound system, and I useto operating it.I have been around a very long time ago, Desmond Dekker and the aces, Roy Shirley, Slim Smith, The Kingstonians, John Holt, I know a few of them who started to sing. In the late 1960s Ken Boothe,Ken Parker,Dobby Dobson, Larry Marshall, Justine Hinds, Jimmy Cliffs, Bob Andy,Horace Andy,and a few more singers which I did not got the time to mention.
The Duke Reid/ treasure isle produced song, ''I'm in the mood for love'' by the techniques was 2 and an half minutes long, I always remember cause the song was so sweet, I always wanted it to last a little longer.
When the Host said "and most notably" ( referring to Santa Davis ) it was only natural that he said PETER TOSH. Santa was such a big part of Tosh's music, such an oversight is inexcusable.......another awahdibumboklaaaaaat moment!
I wonder why nobody never mentioned Mento Musical Influence in Jamaica which has been there since the 40’s. It would be greatly appreciated if a Mention is available just for Respect. Thanks.
people, dem have a limited amount of time, if dem would of started to tell di WHOLE history of the music and the legendary artist, they would haffi be there fi more than 30HOURS! so dem haffi give the fast, rounded history of it.... them cyaan go into detail bout every important musician and his role in the evolution of the music...so them pick the most known musicians, and give a fast kinda history lesson about it... they know themself there is much more to say about it, but they are on a timed interview. member that, know that in theyre heart them have the raspect for ALL musicians who brought them dis far allready and paved the way for them and reggae music. we all have enormous raspect for them,as do the guests on the panel, but you haffi pick and choose what to talk about in a 1 hour interview ;) bless up Idrens, love and prosperety RasTafari
Hay if you want yo here about the history of reggae ask toots if he remember the youth.who his mother had chap with a stone in is fored because he was playing drum on her cheese pan that.she used in the chichen.is utensle , the.same youth.who said is the music is the music when bob ask him what hit him and bob said one good ting about music when it hit you you feal no pain , i was trying to tell him say is because i was playing music on the cheese pan why my mother fling, he never see that she had fling a stone.

Everyone should get into this music it's are history from the mother land Africa we all need to really learn more about it it's beautiful music from the heart.
Educational interview I must say. I get excited when I hear of these artists and their contribution to d history of d reggae music. Ras Micheal is a great friend of mine and the drum is still my favorite musical instrument as it sends a message on its own. More Love.
I cannot comprehend how none of the Panelists even mentioned "Lee Scratches Perry" who was influential in guiding Bob Marley and the wailers into what we now call "Roots Rock Reggae".. the slowed down beat. But there are Videos (That I have in my collection) whereby he goes into detail about that.
Lee Scratches Perry Ernest Ranglin Peter Macintosh's King Tubby, Prince Jammy? Scientist? Lee Scratch Perry? McWoner? Kiddus I? Junior Byles. Start museum in Jamanica dont wait for someone else before the history is gone
@@trishnewman910 you dnt get it sweetie its different among others . If you are a Rasta you dnt do that to your brethren period. Ask any Rastafari. But like that bob song goes Hypocrites and parasites
@@washonmontgomery946 I think its important that we celebrate and recognise the mixture of talent and give value to each other the fact we compliment and influence each other I've read these comments before about who started what and its a bit counterproductive. Its like saying there was no Haitians Jamaican African Americans united in the success of the Caribbean rebellion which extended to America. Its like saying there were no slaves traffikked through the slave triangle all over the place eg from America to Jamaica who are now Jamaicans Haitians Bajions etc (and that's another part of history with the originals ) etc. The fact is I personally hope that when it clicks and we all eventually understand or accept get together we are the most creative coveted and copied people on the planet we are stronger more creative together than we are apart.

@@sarahthompson1372 my problem is that some Jamaican try to twist history for instance Kool herc documentary said that he got the 2 turntable mixer from the disco dj what spark the ideas of hiphop is that black Americans dance to curtain part of the beat know as Today as the break beat and hip hop is James brown music
Peter Tosh probably pushed the boat out more on reggae than anyone else. Maybe why he's not such a 'classic reggae' artist. Very deep was Peter Tosh. And always have the sense that he lived it.
The reality of life is Bob was on another level in music,he was really,really,talented,he not only overshadow tosh,but every reggae artist of his time,its like comparing george foreman to Mohammed Ali,or any boxer of that time to Ali,Ali was loud,he came with his own style and he interacted with his fans deeply to the point of giving them a sense of belonging,a sense of purpose,it was not only"music now",it was a revolution,every artist knew this and let Bob shine until he was bowed from the stage,Bob gave these reggae artist a platform,not only to sing reggae but perform it,he literally advertised reggae for them,now they are harvesting the exposure.
Reggae was there long before Bob Marley, of course but it's the marketing genius of Chris Blackwell that made Bob the poster child for Reggae. What we do have to credit Bob for is the positive message that hit home with so many people around the globe. It's also nice to see that Bob Marley left quite a musical legacy with his children.
@@LADYG-gl1jx Chris did promote Reggae to mostly young white people some of whom were also Rock fans. That strategy was genius...nothing wrong with it. Even today those are the same set of people who support our music the most financially.
@@ub6928 but Bob didn’t want white people at his concerts. He would get angry and upset when white people would turn up to his concerts because he only wanted black people to be there because his message was for black people. His band members have confirmed this and ziggy has even confirmed this. Bob later worded his lyrics in a way that if anyone felt his message pertained to their own struggles then it could even though the message was for the redemption black people and the black struggle. E.g. He didn’t directly write about not wanting anything to do with politicians but he would write “we no have no friends inna high society” -band members have said that Bob would choose his lyrics very carefully because he didn’t want to get involved in anything that he didn’t need to. Bob only started to go to foreign producers when black producers would not pay him royalties after many years in Jamaica. But even his white producers have said that bob didn’t trust any foreigners especially white people because they were also known for stealing; he only classed himself as a black man and only felt comfortable making music with black people. When Rita was trying to make her own music with another record company from France bob warned her and told her not to make music with white people because they would steal her company and to keep anything she done within the family meaning black race. Bob also said on many interviews that it hurts to give his money to a white man knowing that he’s writing songs about slavery, liberation of Africans and being a proud African and Rasta because white people take his money, don’t care about his struggle as a black man, steal money from him and treat black people bad still. He said it’s like he backstabbed his own people for white people which he didn’t like and that’s why he later went back to a black producer. So, I guess Bob who classed himself as a proud black man who wanted to live in Africa and unite black people, Bring black people forward to the motherland first before uniting other races as he said himself in many interviews that Africa was the forefront of his life and that was his identity. You have to understand that Bob had to make money somehow if only whites were selling out his concerts. I would say Bob definitely played the game right and fooled the crowd and so have his family.
@@ub6928 that’s a very big issue as not a lot of white people actually understand bobs message. They only know “one love” and “three little birds” & start to love Rastas and Jamaica and think we’re all accepting of them when we’re really not. This was bobs issue as well as he wanted to promote his music to black people but didn’t get to because Chris Blackwell only wanted his music to be promoted to white people which which is why Bob would get annoyed. Please understand that Black people need bobs message more than ever now and Chris Blackwell knew what he was doing because he did not want blacks to come together and unite. Bob realised later on what Chris was doing and that’s why he got a black Jamaican manager later on.
A problem with Jamaican music is the Bob Marley effect. We keep talking about Bob Marley and applaud his massive talent, but nobody is willing to follow his example.
Ok ok, bob was the first media driven superstar, but to me he wasn't really the best singer, he was just the one who spread the word throughout the world first. I saw the circus but in reality, It didn't do much to influence me. He had a look that made im stand out with sort of white facial features, that might have drawn people to look into jamaican roots more closely. I don't think if he looked like a full on african he would have become so popular, but remember there were so many people coming to the fore at that time and they were becoming a force albeit low key compared to bob's populatity.
Got tears in my eyes the youth of today should be learning from these great spiritual men give me spirituality all day long that materialistic vibe ain’t real it is worrying but I’m still optimistic because is spirit
There was only one Bob Marley, don’t hate he’s in the same conversation with the Beatles, Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson, he is beloved in America, African, Europe, Japan and the rest of Asia.
I agree !!! Classic reggae is the BEST ! has HEART ! comes from deep within. love that phrase 'ego fest' that describes today's reggae ... I live in Guatemala at lago de Atitlan - there is a place that many of us call Ego Nest ... too much ego in the world .....
Was reading the comments while listening to this interview... For the Grammy's to have a reggae wing is impressive enough but people have to understand that those not spoken of were mostly too controversial. Reggae started as black power Jamaican spiritual music.... The Grammy's isn't going to get that revolutionary!
No..Reggae did not just magically "start." It is a genre that TRANSITIONED, over time to become distinctive enough from its previous form to be a related but seperate genre. Call it an evolution even. While yes, Reggae was more political than previous incarnations..it was a gradual addition to the flow of many ingredients dating back to the the Jamaican music scene just prior to the formation Reggaes's direct ancestor....straight down the line - SKA! You DID watch the program..just didn't grasp it? They explain in a fairly concise way how Reggae is basically Ska that's changed gradually over the decades..yet retained the basic "Ska blueprint" enough to recognize the connection to its ancestor of direct lineage that is as simple as this - So just prior to the 1950's due to a lack of music venues ...you know what ..not gettingtl that detailed explaingvsoneting that I guess you just didnt grasp.. make connection..orvj7st zoned out or oblivious to? So badically in a nutshell...in the early 50's Jamaica's version of the Caribbean folk music called Calypso ...or Mento as the Jamaican's called is the main ingredient and driving force..the "soul" of Reggae - what you would find at it's heart after all the layers are stripped away. Influenced by US music genres picked up on the radio for years as well as some Cuban Jazz influence. When Elements of Rhythm And Blues, Swing, Jazz and a sprinkling ofvesrkycRock and Roll, from the US and a bit of Cuban jazz from...yep - Cuba were added to or assimilated ("you will be assimilated, resistance is futile! LMFAO..LOL.GET IT..LIKE THE BORG..OH NEVERMIND) into Mento..with an emphasis on percussion - although NOT A MUST! A more distinct "bluebeat" that can be traced back to Mento in a bit more crude and less developed way was honed and although slowed d iui wn from its Ska days is easily the most recognized connective thread linking Reggae to its past Ska forefather!" So you take Mento blend in other musical styles from regional areas - Ska is the outcome! Slow Ska down one EXTREMELY hot Sumner go prevent overheating..or heat exhaustion and the result is Rocksteady or slowed down Ska. Adding more US Soul and Motown in the process until around 1969 when slowed down Ska .or Rocksteady as the hipsters called it eased off the soul and Motown influences but not entirely, all the while a progression into more political and local issues took place, the bacbeat or bluebeat picked up speed again but not as fast as its Ska past. And percussion, while never abandoned was used a bit more than its Rocksteady days but still not the emphasis it was used in Ska. The gradual addition of Rastafarian elements and influence was the most significant addition and enough for the justification of the namechange from Rocksteady into what we think of as "Classic Reggae" around1969- 70.
Marlay..and .peter tosh...jimmy clife...jonny nash...bunny wailer..denis brown...a they all are RASTAMANS.....father of the REGGAE .jimy clife...but king of REGGAE bob marlay..reggae music soul of africa
Much appreciation to panel for their their attempt to take us along a journey through the evolution of Jamaican music. Well done. Just an observation - I did not hear any mention of mento or kumina and just to point out that some of the music that is now classified as 'dance hall' utilizes elements of that african kumina beat in their rhythms. Mention was also made of Alpha Boys school as a great training ground. I believe also that recognition should also be given to the sterling work being done at the Edna Manley College for the Visual and Performing Arts where some eminent musicians Dwight Pinkney (guitarist with the Bunny Wailer Reggestra and founding member of ZapPow of which Beres Hammond was a part), Cedric 'Im' Brooks, Ibo Cooper, Myrna Hague, to name a few have been helping to nurture talent with immense success. Ragin Fyah comes to mind as a product of Edna Manley. Many touring Jamaican artistes today have Edna Manley trained musicians as part of their outfit. Most of all I love the pride with which the panelists speak of our musical heritage and the fact that it has been a community experience right from the start. Nuff Love and Respec'.
yes ras , i see what yuh mean, but they only have so much time also, i think them kida give a more all around answer, cause if them ago through the whole lineage of the reggae music startin, them haffi be there 30hours more fi explain di whole ting that go bout... blessed love , ivah and ivah
I would say the origins of Jamaican music is within Jamaica it self. We give thanks for external musical influences globally from the U.S. & other countries for example. It's the people within J.A. them self who created those unique sounds. Jamaica's out of many one people play's a major part within Jamaican music evolution...Africans, Indians, Chinese, Lebanese JAMAICAN'S as well as Europeans all played a part. In addition musicians from Cuba, Trinidad & other countries contributed to Jamaican music.
@@jahlincoln3618 I agree, to integrate elements from other places is excellent but to say that Jamaicans are not the creators of reggae music is a little bit foolhardy, please forgive the indiscretion in wording.
@@terencedrakes5291 You may have misunderstood my reasoning. JAMAICANS are the CREATORS of REGGAE/JAMAICAN MUSIC period. I'm not sure where you are from or reside, but if your a Jamaican you should know J.A. motto is 'Out of many one people'. Jamaica population a mix of African, Indian, Chinese, Middle East & European, although Africans make up the majority... Its that fusion & mix of people within J.A. that has created the evolutionary sounds of Jamaican music. Similarly Jamaican FOOD/CUISINE has gone through a evolutionary process, & that is down to the mix of people within Jamaica. Although the internal demographic population of Jamaica today is different to what it use to be due to mass migration out of J.A... As I said we give thanks for the external musical influences globally but Jamaicans created those unique genres we call J.A. music from Mento, ska, Rock Steady, Reggae, Dub, Roots, Dancehall etc etc etc which has made its way into other genres of music globally...
They acknowledge that reggae/ska artists were influenced by African American music. I’ve heard that before. My Jamaican Mom talks about listening to singers like Fats Domino and Louis Armstrong as well as groups like The Platters.
Sibongakonke Ngobese I was thinking the same thing, they talk about the struggle and Peter embodies that, his life and music was a struggle and recognition of the poor man struggle
Sibongakonke Ngobese Bob deserve the recognition he gets, the other two guys refused to travel abroad for years,so bob had to take his wife and the other two girls for backing vocals,as a result bob started to get that world wide recognition. The man deserve the accolades.
He deserves it, but Peter deserves it as well. If you are talking the essence of reggae and rastafari ou could say Peter deserves it more but musically Bob of course
Dollarize Bob too embodies the essence of Rasta, I know peter was a more forceful personality as a man, more confrontational, person to person,but bob always had the bigger vision bob wanted more than personal hype,he was more determined to confront the world,,,big up to u though for the objective decent reasonin, rispeck.
Bob was great, his message was more togetherness. I like both, but I like Peter because he spoke against the things that make peace and one love harder to achieve. To him equal rights and justice come first and I agree with him. For the poor and marginalized it is better to give equal rights and justice instead of peace. There will be no peace until the people have been given their rights and justice is observed, that was his message and as someone who grew up in poverty that is a message I fully agree with. I also obviously want peace and one love and togetherness, but first things first. I admire you all for actually paying attention to the message of rasta music. One Love!
The lyrics madness started from around 40 years and growing. It is easier to build strong youths that to repair broken people. But today songs make youths become killers
When Bob died, something more than just his spirit past. It became the end of the living chapter of a powerful voice. No more the living words would manifest from his mouth. Even Selassie's passing did not impact like Bob's did. Ever since his passing, everthing became an echo of that era. It's not been the same since.
They recognize bob Marley because bob Marley was marketed to white folks by Chris Blackwell. Malcolm X said to beware of the black man the white folks ten to promote.
@@LADYG-gl1jx What are you saying? Its because of people like Bob why these Reggae artist today can tour Europe, America ect & make a living. Bob also gave away alot of his earnings to poor Jamaicans in need. Its not like he was promoting anything that was detrimental to black people like many of these nowadays artists.
I saw Jimmy cliff perform last year at mad stock in london what a fantastic gig was trying to explain the rude boy influence from film the harder they come his message was to state the corruption that occurred and the and how the American rude boys took over in Jamaica as a sign to be bad was good they completely misread the signs instead of listening to the lyrics and getting the understanding with the ethics and poverty in the Caribbean message he did not to lead that life but became the boom but he was not happy after filming the soundtrack and film although excellent for me as I child being inquisitive about this film it bought a different type of problem to Jamaica that wasn't expecting that I feel this film was the first stereotype that blackspoiltation film I was aware of I learnt a lot from this and how to keep myself out of trouble I wish other people could be on my level to be a true word lyric and opinion I am so out of date as I'm well out of touch x
Leroy Sibbles was the backbone of Studio One with the influence of Jackie Mittoo who had emigrated to Canada, Jackie was the musical arranger at Studio One before he left.
Live history - love it . This type of discussion should continue. Jamaica has given the world so much for so little.

Jah blessings to all involved, thank you for help saving ya breadrins in islands on the opposite side of the world ( South Pacific ) . Thanks&praisers . 1💜 Ps if I owned Netflix I’d buy this and develop the idea - it’s a win win
These are four very wise men, especially Ras Michael, I am a little disappointed though, that they didn't say anything about the Keyboard Maestro Jackie Mittoo, director of Studio one recording session, he was very instrumental in carving out reggae music, the first change I can remember ''slowing up the beat'' I heard was a song named ''Nanny Goat'' ''THINGS AH COME UP TO BUMP''coming out studio One, there was also ''Take it Easy'' by Hopeton Lewis, Toots created the Name Ragga Ragga Music turned to Reggae ''not the music, just the name, a lot of the music in Jamaica is now done by sequencing, using the computer, devoid of the human element, the popular music now there, is dancehall spoilt by envious competition, and downright vulgarity,, these men didn't want to say it, for they are being diplomatic, however there are good reggae music still being recorded by people like Protoje, Chronnixx, Mortimer etc. and a host of young females Koffee, Sevana, Lila Ike, Jamila Falak, Jah9 among others, I thoroughly enjoyed this symposium and looking forward to Pt two.
I can never understand how all these people talk about Studio One, I rarely hear any of them mention THE GREAT LARRY MARSHALL. Moving forward y’all should keep that GREAT ARTIST and keep his name in the mix of it all.

First In Jamaica to have Radio Station seem humble be Blessed wont say more
great to hear Lloyd get a chance to tell some of his story. would love to see quality docs done on wailing souls as well as burning spear.
Peter Macintosh's guitar playing and influence with the Wailers was key to their success... He did not love the 'Lovey dovey' music (Lovers rock) rather he sought the music to evoke awareness and change.
Yes! TOSH has no space for BS...he was about Mass Mass Revolutionary awareness and blackman consciousness
Lovers rock is the best. No I know why peter tosh music is my least favorite of the 3 wailers.

It all begins with Mento.....Bob Andy is to me the most respected Artist of Reggae
ziggy is not a founding member of reggae he is the child of its most popular tallent
He is representing his father
His father was /is the KING OF REGGAE
You didn't listen. The man said he is a founding member of the group "the melody makers"....which he is.
Listening to these guys they are missing out on a lots of things, Duke Reid is playing music long before Coxene. Before ska it was mento long before all the other music fraternity in Jamaica, he missing out on a lots of things. Alton Ellis is singing from the 1950s, long before Derrick Morgan, and Prince Buster. The song he was talking about by Derrick Morgan hey you fat man in the 1960s, I remembered when it was released. Because my step father did have a sound system, and I useto operating it.I have been around a very long time ago, Desmond Dekker and the aces, Roy Shirley, Slim Smith, The Kingstonians, John Holt, I know a few of them who started to sing. In the late 1960s Ken Boothe,Ken Parker,Dobby Dobson, Larry Marshall, Justine Hinds, Jimmy Cliffs, Bob Andy,Horace Andy,and a few more singers which I did not got the time to mention.

Ziggy must be awed to listen to the foundation members our music reliving the experienc.

Everyone should get into this music it's are history from the mother land Africa we all need to really learn more about it it's beautiful music from the heart.
Educational interview I must say. I get excited when I hear of these artists and their contribution to d history of d reggae music. Ras Micheal is a great friend of mine and the drum is still my favorite musical instrument as it sends a message on its own. More Love.
I cannot comprehend how none of the Panelists even mentioned "Lee Scratches Perry" who was influential in guiding Bob Marley and the wailers into what we now call "Roots Rock Reggae".. the slowed down beat. But there are Videos (That I have in my collection) whereby he goes into detail about that.
They did.
Lee Scratches Perry Ernest Ranglin Peter Macintosh's King Tubby, Prince Jammy? Scientist? Lee Scratch Perry? McWoner? Kiddus I? Junior Byles. Start museum in Jamanica dont wait for someone else before the history is gone
100% but he also screwed bob too with money ect
@@buenocarrasco1738 in the music business, who doesn't get robbed? Not that it's right.
Lee Scratch Perry is a Legend!
@@trishnewman910 you dnt get it sweetie its different among others . If you are a Rasta you dnt do that to your brethren period. Ask any Rastafari. But like that bob song goes Hypocrites and parasites
Without reggae we would not have hip hop !
That’s what the masses around the world 🌍 need 2 recognise especially mainstream listeners
and without Jazz, Ska wouldnt have been created then reggae wouldnt have been created.
Hip hop is James brown music dick head the ideas of hip hop come from black Americans dance to a A certain part of the beat
@@washonmontgomery946 I think its important that we celebrate and recognise the mixture of talent and give value to each other the fact we compliment and influence each other I've read these comments before about who started what and its a bit counterproductive. Its like saying there was no Haitians Jamaican African Americans united in the success of the Caribbean rebellion which extended to America. Its like saying there were no slaves traffikked through the slave triangle all over the place eg from America to Jamaica who are now Jamaicans Haitians Bajions etc (and that's another part of history with the originals ) etc. The fact is I personally hope that when it clicks and we all eventually understand or accept get together we are the most creative coveted and copied people on the planet we are stronger more creative together than we are apart.

@@sarahthompson1372 my problem is that some Jamaican try to twist history for instance Kool herc documentary said that he got the 2 turntable mixer from the disco dj what spark the ideas of hiphop is that black Americans dance to curtain part of the beat know as Today as the break beat and hip hop is James brown music
Davis work for Tosh too but you failed to mention that.Tosh the most underrated.Big up Peter Tosh RIP True Rastaman
I think they deliberatly left out that santa davis played in Tosh Band, when Peter got shot Santa Davis drove any leave all of them who got shot also
Peter Tosh probably pushed the boat out more on reggae than anyone else. Maybe why he's not such a 'classic reggae' artist. Very deep was Peter Tosh. And always have the sense that he lived it.
Black supremacy is what white boys underestimate
Fully agree....he’s a punk, he just shame because he left Peter to die...
Mel N Coley What do you mean pushed the boat out and not a classic artist??
I love reggae especially Peter Tosh
Damn , R.I.P
These young youth needs to listen to this show to tell them what reggae music is all about because their are changing the reggae music
That Was a wonderful watch.
Love the Unity❤💛💚
Imagine, even Santa, is now know as Bob's drummer. What about his years of playing with Peter, I can tell they went above and beyond to deny Peter.
yes I remember Santa drumming in Tosh’s excellent band when they performed in Sydney around 1985
@@gostrum1 guy p7
Is it like a racist thing you think?
Peter tosh is the king much better and talented than Bob Marley.
The reality of life is Bob was on another level in music,he was really,really,talented,he not only overshadow tosh,but every reggae artist of his time,its like comparing george foreman to Mohammed Ali,or any boxer of that time to Ali,Ali was loud,he came with his own style and he interacted with his fans deeply to the point of giving them a sense of belonging,a sense of purpose,it was not only"music now",it was a revolution,every artist knew this and let Bob shine until he was bowed from the stage,Bob gave these reggae artist a platform,not only to sing reggae but perform it,he literally advertised reggae for them,now they are harvesting the exposure.
Blessings this is great. Jah live.
God bless these men and God bless Jamaica for this gift to humanity of reggae!
Reggae was there long before Bob Marley, of course but it's the marketing genius of Chris Blackwell that made Bob the poster child for Reggae. What we do have to credit Bob for is the positive message that hit home with so many people around the globe. It's also nice to see that Bob Marley left quite a musical legacy with his children.
Alan Steward Chris marketed bob Marley for the white audience it has nothing to do with what you’re saying.
@@LADYG-gl1jx Chris did promote Reggae to mostly young white people some of whom were also Rock fans. That strategy was genius...nothing wrong with it. Even today those are the same set of people who support our music the most financially.
@@ub6928 but Bob didn’t want white people at his concerts. He would get angry and upset when white people would turn up to his concerts because he only wanted black people to be there because his message was for black people. His band members have confirmed this and ziggy has even confirmed this.
Bob later worded his lyrics in a way that if anyone felt his message pertained to their own struggles then it could even though the message was for the redemption black people and the black struggle. E.g. He didn’t directly write about not wanting anything to do with politicians but he would write “we no have no friends inna high society” -band members have said that Bob would choose his lyrics very carefully because he didn’t want to get involved in anything that he didn’t need to.
Bob only started to go to foreign producers when black producers would not pay him royalties after many years in Jamaica. But even his white producers have said that bob didn’t trust any foreigners especially white people because they were also known for stealing; he only classed himself as a black man and only felt comfortable making music with black people.
When Rita was trying to make her own music with another record company from France bob warned her and told her not to make music with white people because they would steal her company and to keep anything she done within the family meaning black race.
Bob also said on many interviews that it hurts to give his money to a white man knowing that he’s writing songs about slavery, liberation of Africans and being a proud African and Rasta because white people take his money, don’t care about his struggle as a black man, steal money from him and treat black people bad still. He said it’s like he backstabbed his own people for white people which he didn’t like and that’s why he later went back to a black producer.
So, I guess Bob who classed himself as a proud black man who wanted to live in Africa and unite black people, Bring black people forward to the motherland first before uniting other races as he said himself in many interviews that Africa was the forefront of his life and that was his identity. You have to understand that Bob had to make money somehow if only whites were selling out his concerts. I would say Bob definitely played the game right and fooled the crowd and so have his family.
@@ub6928 that’s a very big issue as not a lot of white people actually understand bobs message. They only know “one love” and “three little birds” & start to love Rastas and Jamaica and think we’re all accepting of them when we’re really not. This was bobs issue as well as he wanted to promote his music to black people but didn’t get to because Chris Blackwell only wanted his music to be promoted to white people which which is why Bob would get annoyed. Please understand that Black people need bobs message more than ever now and Chris Blackwell knew what he was doing because he did not want blacks to come together and unite. Bob realised later on what Chris was doing and that’s why he got a black Jamaican manager later on.
@@LADYG-gl1jx true but Bob had a bigger vision. He wanted the world not just white people
Reggae speak Life,listen to Life,teach Life,show Life,explain Life,expose Life,believe Life,Trust Life,wish Life,Claim Life,Promote Life..Reggae is Life.
Annarita Maffei StopHackingRastafarI very nice well spoken.
A problem with Jamaican music is the Bob Marley effect. We keep talking about Bob Marley and applaud his massive talent, but nobody is willing to follow his example.
Bob neva had no dammmm talent he never wrote people wrote for him
@@shawnrichards1393 you talk crap. Get informed or keep still.
Ok ok, bob was the first media driven superstar, but to me he wasn't really the best singer, he was just the one who spread the word throughout the world first. I saw the circus but in reality, It didn't do much to influence me. He had a look that made im stand out with sort of white facial features, that might have drawn people to look into jamaican roots more closely. I don't think if he looked like a full on african he would have become so popular, but remember there were so many people coming to the fore at that time and they were becoming a force albeit low key compared to bob's populatity.
@@shawnrichards1393 What a ridiculous comment.
They where the blueprint to Rasta music(u will here their mark in all R music forever.) One Love
St . Peter's clever was a little catholic school on Waltham Park Ave in western Kingston .
Got tears in my eyes the youth of today should be learning from these great spiritual men give me spirituality all day long that materialistic vibe ain’t real it is worrying but I’m still optimistic because is spirit
Great Interview
The biggest problem with the current music scene in Jamaica is a lack of leadership and focus.
Part 2 on board 🎉plz
There was only one Bob Marley, don’t hate he’s in the same conversation with the Beatles, Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson, he is beloved in America, African, Europe, Japan and the rest of Asia.
Awesome segment! Love 💘 💓 💓
I’m trying to count the number of time Bob Marley is mentioned in this discussion. I’m naming Culture, Burning Spear, Bob Andy.
Apple from Israel Vibration, Dennis Brown... they said it is just the beginning so let's see!
Peter tosh

I agree !!! Classic reggae is the BEST ! has HEART ! comes from deep within.

I live in Guatemala at lago de Atitlan - there is a place that many of us call Ego Nest ...
too much ego in the world .....
Reggae is simply african heavy drum and wailing thts african paul from zimbabwe

I agree.Where is Peter Tosh's recognition.
Too.many great musicians.
singers and other influential people were silenced. get
Absolutely brilliant
Rasta got Soul!!!!!
Love this talk
Was reading the comments while listening to this interview... For the Grammy's to have a reggae wing is impressive enough but people have to understand that those not spoken of were mostly too controversial. Reggae started as black power Jamaican spiritual music.... The Grammy's isn't going to get that revolutionary!
No..Reggae did not just magically "start." It is a genre that TRANSITIONED, over time to become distinctive enough from its previous form to be a related but seperate genre. Call it an evolution even. While yes, Reggae was more political than previous incarnations..it was a gradual addition to the flow of many ingredients dating back to the the Jamaican music scene just prior to the formation Reggaes's direct ancestor....straight down the line - SKA! You DID watch the program..just didn't grasp it? They explain in a fairly concise way how Reggae is basically Ska that's changed gradually over the decades..yet retained the basic "Ska blueprint" enough to recognize the connection to its ancestor of direct lineage that is as simple as this - So just prior to the 1950's due to a lack of music venues ...you know what ..not gettingtl that detailed explaingvsoneting that I guess you just didnt grasp.. make connection..orvj7st zoned out or oblivious to? So badically in a nutshell...in the early 50's Jamaica's version of the Caribbean folk music called Calypso ...or Mento as the Jamaican's called is the main ingredient and driving force..the "soul" of Reggae - what you would find at it's heart after all the layers are stripped away. Influenced by US music genres picked up on the radio for years as well as some Cuban Jazz influence. When Elements of Rhythm And Blues, Swing, Jazz and a sprinkling ofvesrkycRock and Roll, from the US and a bit of Cuban jazz from...yep - Cuba were added to or assimilated ("you will be assimilated, resistance is futile! LMFAO..LOL.GET IT..LIKE THE BORG..OH NEVERMIND) into Mento..with an emphasis on percussion - although NOT A MUST! A more distinct "bluebeat" that can be traced back to Mento in a bit more crude and less developed way was honed and although slowed d iui wn from its Ska days is easily the
most recognized connective thread linking Reggae to its past Ska forefather!" So you take Mento blend in other musical styles from regional areas - Ska is the outcome! Slow Ska down one EXTREMELY hot Sumner go prevent overheating..or heat exhaustion and the result is Rocksteady or slowed down Ska. Adding more US Soul and Motown in the process until around 1969 when slowed down Ska .or Rocksteady as the hipsters called it eased off the soul and Motown influences but not entirely, all the while a progression into more political and local issues took place, the bacbeat or bluebeat picked up speed again but not as fast as its Ska past. And percussion, while never abandoned was used a bit more than its Rocksteady days but still not the emphasis it was used in Ska. The gradual addition of Rastafarian elements and influence was the most significant addition and enough for the justification of the namechange from Rocksteady into what we think of as "Classic Reggae" around1969- 70.
Marlay..and .peter tosh...jimmy clife...jonny nash...bunny wailer..denis brown...a they all are RASTAMANS.....father of the REGGAE .jimy clife...but king of REGGAE bob marlay..reggae music soul of africa

Portland, JAMAICA in the Building !!!
Much appreciation to panel for their their attempt to take us along a journey through the evolution of Jamaican music. Well done. Just an observation - I did not hear any mention of mento or kumina and just to point out that some of the music that is now classified as 'dance hall' utilizes elements of that african kumina beat in their rhythms.
Mention was also made of Alpha Boys school as a great training ground. I believe also that recognition should also be given to the sterling work being done at the Edna Manley College for the Visual and Performing Arts where some eminent musicians Dwight Pinkney (guitarist with the Bunny Wailer Reggestra and founding member of ZapPow of which Beres Hammond was a part), Cedric 'Im' Brooks, Ibo Cooper, Myrna Hague, to name a few have been helping to nurture talent with immense success. Ragin Fyah comes to mind as a product of Edna Manley. Many touring Jamaican artistes today have Edna Manley trained musicians as part of their outfit.
Most of all I love the pride with which the panelists speak of our musical heritage and the fact that it has been a community experience right from the start. Nuff Love and Respec'.
yes ras , i see what yuh mean, but they only have so much time also, i think them kida give a more all around answer, cause if them ago through the whole lineage of the reggae music startin, them haffi be there 30hours more fi explain di whole ting that go bout...
blessed love , ivah and ivah
Well said

loved watching this, fascinating stuff
How come I don't hear peter great tosh
part 2 should be done for sure in Jamaica 2023
So true that the younger generation has lost its respect for those who came before them. That’s a huge loss for the current reggae scene.
The track that Sly played the flying cymbals on, I believe, was Tit For Tat, the flip side of Al Brown's Here I Am Baby.
I love how Ziggy Marley talks about the true origin of Jamaican music which is New Orleans! Listen to 13:00
Thank him for that 💯
I would say the origins of Jamaican music is within Jamaica it self. We give thanks for external musical influences globally from the U.S. & other countries for example. It's the people within J.A. them self who created those unique sounds. Jamaica's out of many one people play's a major part within Jamaican music evolution...Africans, Indians, Chinese, Lebanese JAMAICAN'S as well as Europeans all played a part. In addition musicians from Cuba, Trinidad & other countries contributed to Jamaican music.
@@jahlincoln3618 I agree, to integrate elements from other places is excellent but to say that Jamaicans are not the creators of reggae music is a little bit foolhardy, please forgive the indiscretion in wording.
@@terencedrakes5291 You may have misunderstood my reasoning. JAMAICANS are the CREATORS of REGGAE/JAMAICAN MUSIC period. I'm not sure where you are from or reside, but if your a Jamaican you should know J.A. motto is 'Out of many one people'. Jamaica population a mix of African, Indian, Chinese, Middle East & European, although Africans make up the majority... Its that fusion & mix of people within J.A. that has created the evolutionary sounds of Jamaican music. Similarly Jamaican FOOD/CUISINE has gone through a evolutionary process, & that is down to the mix of people within Jamaica. Although the internal demographic population of Jamaica today is different to what it use to be due to mass migration out of J.A... As I said we give thanks for the external musical influences globally but Jamaicans created those unique genres we call J.A. music from Mento, ska, Rock Steady, Reggae, Dub, Roots, Dancehall etc etc etc which has made its way into other genres of music globally...
They acknowledge that reggae/ska artists were influenced by African American music. I’ve heard that before. My Jamaican Mom talks about listening to singers like Fats Domino and Louis Armstrong as well as groups like The Platters.
Thank God for the Reggae Renaissance with Chronnix, Pyramid, Jah Nine, Koffee and those fine souls!!!
Yuck
Every name mentioned
Just disgusting
Marley this, Marley that!!! So Peter Tosh influence in reggae music is not recognized. Ohhh boy I hate this.
Sibongakonke Ngobese I was thinking the same thing, they talk about the struggle and Peter embodies that, his life and music was a struggle and recognition of the poor man struggle
Sibongakonke Ngobese Bob deserve the recognition he gets, the other two guys refused to travel abroad for years,so bob had to take his wife and the other two girls for backing vocals,as a result bob started to get that world wide recognition. The man deserve the accolades.
He deserves it, but Peter deserves it as well. If you are talking the essence of reggae and rastafari ou could say Peter deserves it more but musically Bob of course
Dollarize Bob too embodies the essence of Rasta, I know peter was a more forceful personality as a man, more confrontational, person to person,but bob always had the bigger vision bob wanted more than personal hype,he was more determined to confront the world,,,big up to u though for the objective decent reasonin, rispeck.
Bob was great, his message was more togetherness. I like both, but I like Peter because he spoke against the things that make peace and one love harder to achieve. To him equal rights and justice come first and I agree with him. For the poor and marginalized it is better to give equal rights and justice instead of peace. There will be no peace until the people have been given their rights and justice is observed, that was his message and as someone who grew up in poverty that is a message I fully agree with. I also obviously want peace and one love and togetherness, but first things first.
I admire you all for actually paying attention to the message of rasta music. One Love!
The lyrics madness started from around 40 years and growing. It is easier to build strong youths that to repair broken people. But today songs make youths become killers
True & pure knowledge
and what about >Desmond Dekker.Bob Andy..U Roy..Gregory Isaacs..King Stitt...
......
I love these guys
Peter is the greatest reggae artist of all time. Peter was to BLACK FOR THE SHITSTEM.
Tell them mi brother
Exactly!!!
Onwards and Upwards
only music come from Africa no peta
Equal rights and justice
1 Bright Day is 1 of the 1st albums I studied in Reggae College 1989.
" Love is the only law to obey "
The radio station was called WINZ from out of New Orleans.
"so much things to say right now..." JAH MARLEY
Love all of these bredren but The Wailing Souls are one of my favorites. Where's Pipe?!? Haha..
A big problem with current Jamaican music is a lack of talent and vision.
Lack of strive for power and maintaining it. and ownership and regulation laws. Over it and other people. It’s just aimless. And Naive sentiment.
When Bob died, something more than just his spirit past. It became the end of the living chapter of a powerful voice. No more the living words would manifest from his mouth. Even Selassie's passing did not impact like Bob's did. Ever since his passing, everthing became an echo of that era. It's not been the same since.
Yes
Why do they neglect the figure of Peter Tosh?
No they didn't not with santos
Ubirajara Santos I agree.
They didn't neglect it, it just didn't come up
So many great Jamaican musicians, DJ’s & producers
yea they never talk about peter tosh not only peter tosh a lot of other artist that make good music those days like garnette silk
toni kay that's right.
They recognize bob Marley because bob Marley was marketed to white folks by Chris Blackwell. Malcolm X said to beware of the black man the white folks ten to promote.
@@LADYG-gl1jx What are you saying? Its because of people like Bob why these Reggae artist today can tour Europe, America ect & make a living. Bob also gave away alot of his earnings to poor Jamaicans in need. Its not like he was promoting anything that was detrimental to black people like many of these nowadays artists.
@@LADYG-gl1jx utter nonsense
honestly, although I think Peter Tosh was a truly marvelous man, his music never really did much to me ...
they never talk about Jimmy Cliff my Brother
They did
I saw Jimmy cliff perform last year at mad stock in london what a fantastic gig was trying to explain the rude boy influence from film the harder they come his message was to state the corruption that occurred and the
and how the American rude boys took over in Jamaica as a sign to be bad was good they completely misread the signs instead of listening to the lyrics and getting the understanding with the ethics and poverty in the Caribbean message he did not to lead that life but became the boom but he was not happy after filming the soundtrack and film although excellent for me as I child being inquisitive about this film it bought a different type of problem to Jamaica that wasn't expecting that I feel this film was the first stereotype that blackspoiltation film I was aware of I learnt a lot from this and how to keep myself out of trouble I wish other people could be on my level to be a true word lyric and opinion I am so out of date as I'm well out of touch x
Is Jimi cliff really your brother wow x
because out of Jamaica! Jimmy cliff is more Recognize than in Jamaica as an artist
carlton and his shoe??????...do your research
Wow! LEROY HEPTONES really done a lot for reggae.
He played bass on the recording of pass the cutchie by mighty diamond he told

Leroy Sibbles was the backbone of Studio One with the influence of Jackie Mittoo who had emigrated to Canada, Jackie was the musical arranger at Studio One before he left.

Live history - love it . This type of discussion should continue. Jamaica has given the world so much for so little. Respect and credit is important to those who contributed but we’re not acknowledged or paid there worth. Jah blessings to all involved, thank you for help saving ya breadrins in islands on the opposite side of the world ( South Pacific ) . Thanks&praisers . 1💜
Ps if I owned Netflix I’d buy this and develop the idea - it’s a win win
These are four very wise men, especially Ras Michael, I am a little disappointed though, that they didn't say anything about the Keyboard Maestro Jackie Mittoo, director of Studio one recording session, he was very instrumental in carving out reggae music, the first change I can remember ''slowing up the beat'' I heard was a song named ''Nanny Goat'' ''THINGS AH COME UP TO BUMP''coming out studio One, there was also ''Take it Easy'' by Hopeton Lewis, Toots created the Name Ragga Ragga Music turned to Reggae ''not the music, just the name, a lot of the music in Jamaica is now done by sequencing, using the computer, devoid of the human element, the popular music now there, is dancehall spoilt by envious competition, and downright vulgarity,, these men didn't want to say it, for they are being diplomatic, however there are good reggae music still being recorded by people like Protoje, Chronnixx, Mortimer etc. and a host of young females Koffee, Sevana, Lila Ike, Jamila Falak, Jah9 among others, I thoroughly enjoyed this symposium and looking forward to Pt two.
I can never understand how all these people talk about Studio One, I rarely hear any of them mention THE GREAT LARRY MARSHALL. Moving forward y’all should keep that GREAT ARTIST and keep his name in the mix of it all.
SPIRITUALITY WILL ARISE OVER MATERIALIZATION.
