Look from where dancehall coming from to the crap we are bombarded with nowadays. Pure niceness back then. Riddims sweet, artistes on point, women sweet. If I could step back in time, I would in a split of a second.
You're 100% correct. You could listen to DJs or dance with a woman all night, much better riddims overall. I grew up listening to Dennis Brown, Sugar Minott, Gregory, Don Carlos etc and many other big time singers would pass through a dance and sing a couple of tunes. If I could go back in time I would be in a Sturgav dance - Uroy, Josey/ Charlie with Inspector Willie as selector.

1987/ 1988 the peak of DJs on sound systems, Dominic - Metromedia/ Ninja man - Killermanjaro, Miss those days for real as DJs would get their training on sound systems before graduating to stage shows and recording studio.
this brings back memories, I was at this event...first stage show I ever went to...here looking to see I got 'captured' in the footage, I was near the stage...back when one could go out and enjoy a show without much fear of violence
@@markferguson3477 I was at the show...why would I lie...I am 57 now my cousins came down from England at the time and we went...were you there??? if not shut the hell up
I was 12yrs old and still gyallis today. This is some real history . Seem l ke only who feels it knows it. Keep Jah peace and high standard my people. Bless
Gonna haffi try find my old C60 cassette tapes I made back in the early 80’s toasting on my Sound !……..only knew Dominic from his work with Black Echoes ! Keep schooling me Leo 🤜🤛🏾 🏴🇯🇲
Nostalgic, Papa. When I think of how many of my 80s videotapes I have lost along the way, and what I still have and seem unable to access, my head hurts. I still have many tapes I am hoping I can digitize. Pray for me.
That guy had some wicked tunes but it funny how he don't get much recognition. I wonder where he at now..... he just dissapeared from the dancehall scene
Dominic talking about the cop Edward Byrne who was killed in Queens 88 on orders from Fat Cat and Pappy Mason... It's crazy how that moment in time had such an impact from the States to Yard. Big respect for recording and preserving these jewels bredren.. BIG respect.
Was saying the same thing, my pops was telling me about the impact that had in Queens N Brooklyn after that. Pappy you to chill with the yard man dem plus who wore locs so do yard man felt the aftermath.
@@MrDresnypa The stereotypes were strong back then with Jamaicans wearing big rope and link chains and driving Mercedes Benz 190E and 300E BMW 318 and 325 Nissan Maxima square body 86-88 Toyota Cressida square body 85-88 Police just think Jamaicans were drug dealers then
This man was invited to Jamaica by a major Jamaican artist. And became a force till today in the Jamaican dancehall Buisness. But thousand of black Jamaican Artists could not even get the Elusive Jamaican buss in their own island sad.
2:20 Dominic is talking about officer Edward Byrne who was "who know what" by the orders of Pappy Mason who was an enforcer for drug dealer Fat Cat Nichols from Queens NY. That incident sent a shock throughout the world and started the "war on drugs" operation by the U.S. government which amped up pressure on drug dealers and turned the whole drug game upside down. For Dominic to be talking about it, shows how much of an impact that incident had on the world during that time.
@@SabiArtStory777 Thanks so much for the Info, I'm an 80's baby and seeing this video, with the fashion and the way how ppl were enjoying themselves with his performance, almost brought tears to my eyes, because ppl back then didnt see color, they saw talent, loved and appreciated the individuals for their craft.
