Back in those days, these artists had their own fan club, yet when they came together onstage, the focus was to entertain the crowd, not to compete and strive for one-upmanship and forwards. It was pure love, harmony and togetherness, something our current crop could do well to emulate.
The first dude who 'Ram tha session' rocked me with the Simon Templar reference....my favorite and easily The Greatest TV SHOW of all time!! Bless Jah and Roger Moore~!!!!
Omg.. who can ride the riddim like these man dem this soldiers are living foundation artists..big up the all the stars ⭐️ dem, rip tenor saw 🙏🏽cutty ranks a bad bwoy, burro banton, super cat & demus are the legends,me nah forget joe lick shot💥💥💥💥💥🔫
Anybody listening in 2020? Big Up all Flatbush Massive!! 1980s Biltmore Ballroom, Starlight Lounge, Kenmore movie theater. If you was jamming in a basement party, give a thumbs up!👍
Thanks ASTRO I never understood rap and lived in a square box-now I know why my kids always liked hip hop-I have learned alot from you and how much good there is in hip hop-thanks for sharing this video!
Yo..im 41yrs old i grew up in flatbush BK listening to the cassette with these dudes..this is the real shit right here... Throw backs for your ass..peace
Can't get bored of watching/listening to this. Proper dj's, proper lyrics, proper tunes. None of that bs you hear nowadays like Vybz Cartel where they just chat pure shit dressed like a Christmas tree your partially blind granny decorated
@zebiawhite His name is "Joe Lick Shot". He was some what of a dance hall icon back then & was present at all the major dance hall sessions. He was popular for replicating the sounds of various types of firearms with only his voice... sometimes in a comical fashion....Kinda like the Michael Winslow ( The sound effects guy from Police Academy) of the dance hall seen.
Love when Burro Banton hands off the mic, and calls cutty an "apprentice"(?) and Demus lets out a chuckle...haha, cutty correctly states it "be a cantankerous business tonight" and then DESTROYS, what an amazing video
+Daniel Welsh The only problem I have with England is that they stole the Lion from Africa for their coat of arms. There are no bloody Lions in England!!!
+Clinton Allen. Thats because once upon a time, English people had the heart of 3 lions. Thats probebly not the case anymore because we are now a country full of nutt jobs, pussies and left wing trash who don't give a fuck or know what it means to be English anymore.
Burro Hot! Hot! Hot! They don't hold party like this any more. Back inna di 80's it was more about the art and skill than the money. Bring back the old school dance hall!!!
These are my all time favourite DJ's from the 70's till now:- U-Roy, I-Roy, Big Youth, Prince Fari, Prince Muhamed, Trinity, Ranking Joe, U-Brown, Clint Eastwood, Yellow Man, Super Cat, Ninja Man, Cutty Ranks, Smiley Culture, Shabba Ranks, Buju Banton, Capelton, Beenie Man, Bounty Killa, Sizzla Kalonji, Vybz Kartel, Mavado.
SocaPhD if yuh axe mi richie spice haffi deh pon yuh list too. JA ave plenty big reggae artists. InI live dung a germany, ppl a gwaan mad roun here an love di dancehall culture.

So what about the likes of Lord Sassafrass, Althia & Donna, General Echo, General Trees, Jose Wales & Charlie Chaplin, Brigadier Jerry, Sister Nancy, Michigan & Smilie. -- All the a fore mentioned had an impact on the dance hall scene one way or the other.
i will add to that wonder list : Ranking Toyan, Burro Banton.. Nicodemus ( how can you leave out Nicodemus ?), Junior Demus, Junior Cat, Sister Nancy, Terror Fabulous, Tiger, Billy Boyo and the great Jah Thomas
