Muscle, please try to post subtitles or a translation
It would be great for thousands of non-jamaican fans (around 99% of reggae and black uhuru’s audience)
How could you not know Ijahman Levi? One of the best voices. You should listen to Zion Hut.
This is best interview I've ever listen to with Duckie Simpson Founder of Black Uhuru. Whom I met once Backstage in New York I was terrified and he never said or made any gesture to me. His gaze was GANGSTER.. The hardship he faced holding B U together was.heartbreaking yet the icing was he was robbed of his music and fortune... Most Unfortunate. Bigg Ups To Duckie "Black Uhuru" Simpson
wow….never has an interview given me so many feelings!!!! damnnnnnn Puma story at the end is just heartbreaking ..damnnn phew tear jerking …Strength and Peace to Duckie!!!!! I really wish him well!!!
Yeah. Sadly she died of much pain.
Of all the reggae interviews i've wached,i can dare say this is the mother of them all!!!!
Means a lot 👊🏾
I met Duckie , Puma & Sky Juice outside a Dublin Hotel in 1986 very briefly got some autographs and traded a button badge with Sky Juice, still remember it 37 years later. Great interview and brilliant insight into one of my favourite bands
This has to be the most revaling interview of the history of this iconic group.It has left me with mixed feeling's. Loved hearing of all the milestones they passed. Shocked of all the robbery by Island records and Chris Blackwell..I need to read your book Duckie.
,mes w a

This maybe the best interview I have encountered.
#Entertainmentreportpodcast . These elders deserve a part 5. Too much story to tell. Information the public needs to know and hear. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Duckie has a beautiful soul.
Love the part1 Muscle..I'm here waiting for part 2. The legend memory is on tact..I feel like he's speak his truth. Big up the 9 star general..father Duck..the real Uhuru!
Big up family 👊🏾
Blessings my brother I'm the bus driver that took u n the group from Camden Nj to Washington DC when ur bus broke down I had a great time 1love.
This is part 2 of 3….,chk part 1
I just can’t stop watching these 3 interviews with Duckie. They are captivating
Me too
Yes the great Duckie Simpson it was joy to share the same community and cover with u.
Corner
What an interview. And if this is just a sprinkle of his new book ,, then WOW ,, because so far it has been beyond jaw dropping. Just glad the militant man is truly still here to tell his story from his own perspective. Not many from that era to tell it . MORE THAN EPIC . HEAVY
Peter tosh is the most important thing that comes out of Jamaica.
Yes the great Duckie Simpson it was a pleasure to have share the same community and corner with you.Idlers corner.Nuff memory me brethren
Brilliant, brilliant interview Muscle, this history by King Duckie is so captivating and i will repeat it. "Best of the Best" this one!!!!!
Ras K.C 🔴🟡🟢⚫
on some level this is quite heart-breaking…so much disrespect by new age artists not paying their dues!!!! wow Muscle thanks a lot and great job giving him a platform to speak his truth!!!!
MASSIVE RESPECT TO DUCKIE!!!! LEGEND!!!!
One OF my FAVORITE reggae Groups 🎶🎤🎤🎼🎵🎷🎷🎹🎸📖🎶🎤📖
Peter Tosh and other musicians say the same thing about Chris Blackwell. Them man deh a modern day slave master. Yet we allow dem fi own so much of Jamaica’s history and land.
Dutty English bwoy
Chris Blackwell is an evil person. How could you do that to Duckie and Black Uhuru? He has continued the Backra master tradition from slave days, getting rich off black people and giving them nothing.
Was never a big fan of Duckie, but this interview was very revealing and gripping.
The Black Uhuru story is indeed one of the saddest in reggae History.
Black Uhuru was just never as good without miss Puma Jones, staight up. My favorite album ? Brutal - no question, some of the best dubs ever conceived.
Amazing! It's like watching a movie. Duckie mentioned he is planning to write a book. I hope he makes hay while the sun shines. Tomorrow is not promised to anyone. Furthermore, he is getting up there
BRAVO....Duckie Simpson and Black Uhuru. We as Rasta take great delight and joy in thee I music and harmony...JAH bless, guide and protect.
Excellent revelatory podcast - Be well.
Epic interview from the interviewer and Duckie Simpson!
Great reasoning! Waiting for Pt 3.. Love how Duckie nah hold back nut'n.. Original screwface.. an mek me laugh out loud sed way.. Mi feel the part about Puma still.. that hurt.. I saw them live in Amsterdam in 1981.. the night before the Rockpalast show.. Experience of a life time.. But Puma.. Puma had me mesmerised.. Puma was special..
Nuff Respect Bro: TrenchTown, Jones Town, Kingston12, Jamaica 🇯🇲 Massive people peeps unique individual achievements 🎼🎼🎼🇯🇲 #realtalk histories #Waterhouse #Firehouse
Peter Tosh & Fredrick Nathaniel Hibbert, interverts.
Many interesting facts in the interview. For Black Uhuru Fans, the ‘holy grail’ question is: Will we ever hear the vocal version to “Sodom” which is a track off the “Dub Factor” album to which no vocal version was on any album or single. The dub is the only existing version. The working theory is, this may have been an unfinished song that was on one of the Master Tapes given to Paul “Groucho” Smykle for doing the “Dub Factor” mixes. So, he found the track and cut the dub version, yet still the song itself did never get a regular mix.
Give thanks muscle for interviewing these artists & creators of our great reggae music so they could unfolding some history of where it all started!
Gwan DUCKIE REBEL UHURU, Love that interview Icon… POWERFUL 👊🏾💪🏾🙏🏾👏🏾
Wow, this certainly was a very revealing interview.
Love the history Duckie. I hope young musicians use your revelations as a guide in how to navigate the business side of the musical journey. Bless up mi bredren!!!
DUCKIE BIG UP ...THANKS FOR THE LOVE U R APPRECIATED
Hey I would like to congratulate you on a fantastic interview with the legend and Mr "Black Uhuru" Duckie Simpson. However i am from England and been a HUGE Uhuru fan for many years but really struggled to understand Duckie's thick Jamaican patois. Please is there a chance you could add subtitles as that would be really helpful to myself and many other non Jamaican fans. Thanks again for a wonderful interview 👍
here again for part 2!!!! mentioning all the songs…its amazing how they’re all hits!!!!!! they never did a bad tune!!!
Muscle, really glad that you have the elder's journey documented: need the atrocities the legends faced documented star.
Astounding podcast, come back soon
Much appreciated 🙏🏾
Duckie don't hold punches, he just speaks his mind and nuh business.
On to part 3.
..👀🎶Yes Muscle continue the Works ....👀👌🏿❤️💯🙏
It’s very interesting listening to Duckie Simpson . He readily admits He was a Hustler and reinforces this point again and again .
His record of One Solo Album in a 50 year Career is testimony of that .....
I presented a Festival in France a few years ago .... Black Uhuru were the main Band ....
If I told you the back stage runnings, nightmare etc of a divided camp you’d say a lie I a tell ...
Duckie / Rose don’t stay in the same hotels, both fly separately etc etc. They are a Promoters nightmare in terms of organization etc .......
MASSIVE RESPECT MUSCLE!!!! FOR ORCHESTRATING the interview!!!!!
Maximum respect family 🙏🏾
Straight and Heartical Reasoning
Give Thanx for another XXL Clip
This is a historical document right here. A brilliant interview.
Bless up muscle, one of the best interview ever, big up the great Duckie Simpson 🔥🔥🔥
Yep let's hear from The Originals good stuff man love di rastaman history
Big up the Legendary black Uhuru Group!
Big Boss I v been holding my breath for months for, part 3 of this interview and I can't hold it much longer. Please let us know when you're going to make it happen. Sign. About to pass out 😳

Muscle this has been EPIC, a magnificent achievement, Duckie has left NOTHING out very enlightening, this is like a documentary very very DEEP
Muscle, I am new to your channel, but I must bug you up. These interviews with Ducky are like a history lesson. Keep up the good work. Respect from Long Island NY
Welcome aboard! I appreciate that 👊🏾
Yo my bredren trust me I've been watching a lot of interviews and by far these last two with duckie might b two of the best by far. Priceless history that I bet alot of people didn't know including myself. An 50 percent of an interview is the questions an trust me wen I say every question is on point. It brings out great history. Big up yourself an to the legend Duckie again. An I heard him mention that this is two out of, 5 so once again I'm waiting patiently for the next. Rastafari
👊🏾🦁
Would love an Uhuru reunion with Junior Reid! Threy could do the Positive line up...
What a interview talk about revealing, the Puma Jones bit is shocking eyes welled up what an insult to a legend and former band member she was such a presence on stage on off they shifted units because of Puma so many fans, beautiful, lively she bought personality to UHURU. Duckie's attempt to grant her last request was admirable big heart he showed true leadership and responsibility I would like to hear Mykael Rose's version of events around this time a dying persons last request is sacred like no other
Please, What part of the video they talk about puma’s last request?
@@fabriciotonelli5396 Just near the end of part 2

great great great interview 😄🔥👍🏿
These guys were stolen royally! How can Black Uhuru still owe Island Records? If they sold records similar to Bob Marley How could not have paid off their bills? Muscle you really have done a great job getting the details of the life of Black Uhuru!
Impossible mon. Black uhuru sold well but they cant sold more than Gregory, Peter, Inner Circle and Aswad
Excellent interview we get fi know how it did go....first time i hear Duckie talk a serious man dat,Living Legend,give I and I strength and inspiration fe years....
,Black Uhuru had big big impact down till this day. well ahead of their time Iyah.....hehe "sound like suppn come out a Egypt"........♥ DAT....dat piece fi deh pan repeat.....Vex tho, de man dem shoulda get dem fullness and dem get cheated down to this day....exploitation DAT... is a compelling testimony dis, haffe listen all of it and rewind too...i see the pain in you eyes at the end Bredrin....Bless Up...
So much respect for Duckie.
Like Bob says " man to man"! Jah help us all 🙏!!!!!!!
awwwwvlove it….when Duckie smile he said. bagaloo lol
this is the best show …so informative and funny
Great interview
Was in the studio at Sly n Robbie when Strong the album was done with Garth n Don Carlos.
Big interview Duksy Simpson real deal n funny.
SPEAK TRUTH ELDER, SO MUCH ELDERS HAVE PASSED AWAY, WITHOUT GETTING THINGS OFF THEIR CHEST.
Hail Muscle, forgot to mention..went to a Black Uhuru concert in Portland Maine back in the early 90,s..after the show went back stage to look at the stars. When Duckie came back there his face alone make you want to stay away from him. He was very intimidating. He's not lying, bro is not friendly..him no talk to people. After watching this episode I remember the whole ordeal. Yahsus Afari was on the show too..I was vibing with him back stage. At this time it was Duckie, Don and Garthie. This enterview series was very enlightening, I now look at Duckie in a different way. He's the real 7 star General. Also it's very sad that these artist didn't learn the music business. As the saying goes, it's not personal..it's just business. I would highly appreciate if you could get Linval Thompson on your show bless.
Yo big up yourself Muscle! Big big interview dat! Keep it up! 💪🏿🇨🇦
Maximum respect family
When we check these scenarios mentioned by Duckie. He stated plain that they we’re coming from poverty, however human nature being what it is especially when money is involved lies treachery and dishonour. All ethics and moral codes go, regardless of contracts.
This industry wasn’t built on ethics, the Mafia has been and maybe still is involved in said industry. That in itself speaks volumes. I think what Duckie said about Africa is quite damning yet true but if a “good” management team is in place the battle is made easier. The African music industry is improving evidence being Afro beat and even reggae is huge on the continent.
This is an awesome interview, RIP Puma.
Just my opinion.... Mykal Rose Vocal development in the group made him think that he didn’t need Duckie and Puma .... but with Duckie and Puma ... they had the Style n Image the people loved....Mykal Rose thought his alliance with Sly n Robbie would make him bigger.... BIG BIG MISTAKE!...I think Chris Blackwell wanted to co-operate Sly n Robbie into the Black Uhuru... as a band... but Mykal Rose left anyway... Big blow to Reggae industry when Black Uhuru split up
Vocal development? And completely dominant in the songwriting department......
Yeah, I agree with your point of view. Michael rose is an extraordinary singer, but his solo carrer never achieved 1% of the status of Black Uhuru.
@@lawrencenjawe9875 In the first 2 albums (guess whos coming to dinner and Sinsemilla) But in Anthem, Duckie wrote the best tracks (what is life, elements and anthem). And also in Chill out (Emotional slaughter).
@@fabriciotonelli5396 1% in my opinion is a gross undervaluation of what Michael Rose brought to the group. For a singer whose unique stylings came to be acknowledged as synonymous with the group. I don't think anyone would discount Paul McCartney's phenomenal career because his was nowhere near the one he had with the Beatles.
EPIC! EPIC!! Muscle yuh ting TunUp King
Respekt Muscle you are a good interviewer, you know your thing, respek to Mr Simpson🔥
Muscle, try to get Mykal Rose on next.
Yow,real brethren. Love this. Black Uhuru ur blessed
very entertaining. Big up ur self Duckie.
love to hear di Man talk....serious thinx
True words bout St. Thomas, Spain Town and Mobay!
Glen ford Bailey I agree with you, Mother of all reggae interview no gow just realness
I wanted to know about the junior Reid years I loved his vocal role and nyabini chants I think he was just as important lyrically as Michael rose
True
Muscle, please is it possible you could add subtitles to this fantastic interview as I am sure Duckie would like the fans to understand what he has to say 👍
big up muscle fe them important innerviews, you strong like Schwarzenegger🙏🏿
🦾🦁
Great Interview.
Amazing interview.
Priceless moments.
But I beg to the interviewer, please post SUBTITLES on Duckie’s talking, because, for a non-jamaican, its almost IMPOSSIBLE to understand it.
I barely understand 40% of what he is saying
For sure more people want subtitles/translation also, but they are ashemed to ask.
Thank you for bringing this to my attention. In the near future this is something we'll be doing for sure. Big up 👊🏾
Thanks a lot, my brother
It would be great for everybody, including the artist: the majority of reggae lovers are non-jamaicans.
So we need this worderful interviews in standard english
True true. I grew up listening to Black Uhuru records. Its really hard to understand the Jamaican patois
@@blacksurvivors9337 Oh but I really love Jamaican Patois quite similar to variants spoken thru out West Africa.😁
Story behind "Youths of Eglinton at 58:15.
PUMA RIP SORRY U DIDNT LEFT US AN ALBUM...
I always thought that black uhuru was the biggest reggae band or group in the world and supposedly be the most successful in fame financially and other wise I’m so shocked
Beautiful priceless history thank you, I am full-joying every moment. BTW @ 29:19 your first photo is FELA KUTI not DON TAYLOR! Bless ❤💛💚 🎼🎛🎤
Thanks for the info! ❤
We Africans love , jamaican reggae singers, no body gona rob you or your music.its the industry that rob you, under your very eyes.peter say it all dont care were you come from as long as youre black ,youre African.Remember that dont get lost.my breden.
Just fantastic man
The old vampire Chris whiteworse😂...the elder nuh easy 😂

My General Duckie 🔥🔥💯💯🔥🔥👍👊
Correction, in 1979 in NY. City WBLS when Franky Crocker asked Bob Marley who was the next big thing Bob replied STEEL PULSE ,!!!
Real Real History.
I can tell you one thing, The music 🎶 Industry has the most treacherous individuals in the titles of CEOs, producers, and even artists.
This is one of the best reggae band
incredible interview, crowned off by the reference to Puma and the events around her last days..... There's talk of a book but living testimonies like these are priceless.
Big ups
Muscle head this is HUGE Bredda 🔥
Thanks @musclehead what a great trio
What a joy to hear the utterance of a Rasta. This man carries the presence of an authentic Rastafarian musician. Thank you for this interview. Incredible story. Emotional Slaughter is a great tune. Saw Black Uhuru live at Nassau Coliseum opening act for Sting and the Police. Heavy Bass filled the place. I was 16 years old then and still listen to Black Uhuru today.
Don't remember the Chill Out album being mentioned.
Check it 01:14:00
Late for class 😁. Will serve detention n watch the earlier segment lata.
