Great video! I wrote a song inspired by this style and it will come to life much more now I understand more of the elements. Now I have some more artists to check out too!
I am happy you are inspired by this video ,I am currently working on some more videos featuring the different forms of popular music in Jamaica. thanks for your support.
The first sound systems played American rhythm & blues until ska then it’s been Jamaican music all the way but in the 40s ray domino fats and ray Charles where the artists that was loved.
Do you need to look up what I am and what I know. Before electronic, it was the drums,the congo, dhemge, congo jinga/ banjo, grater, and other instruments played by our ancestors that were our sound system . Our traditional system. Played specific patterns for specific events: healing, propehcy, breaking spells, entertainment, etc. 1. Kumina /myal 2.pocomina 3.burru 4.kormante 5.junkunu 6 Rythmn and Blues did not create our ska or reggae. Reggae genesis is the fusion. Of all the above, then eventually, the blues sound was added, amongst other things. They those sound was synthesize to and played a modern sound system . But the foundation is our Afro Jamaican music genre is our African trance like continuity.
Excellent and insightful video. Can "Underneath the Mango Tree", "Matilda" and "Jump Up" be considered Mento songs? Thanks in advance. Stay safe. Greetings from Uruguay.
Garbage. Mento came from Kumuina and burro Africa trance like sound and cosmology. Calypso is the Afro trini equivalent. Spanish didn't create steel pan.Afro Trini did. Ask Carlos santana about the orgin of so called Spanish music and he will tell you Africa.
I will be using this video to teach my students.
Keep up the good work Kingsley.

The original sound system was the African drum the kumina burru tradition that birth mento then ska and reggae( rythmn and blues was infused).
@@TsedekBen a drum isn’t a sound system. We are talking turn tables and big speakers. Instruments are not sound systems. Look it up
