FIRMLY PLANTED (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, September 22 2007 - 1970's Reggae isn't called "Roots" because of it's age. Just look at the simple fact that there is Roots Music created today!

Roots Music is foundational Reggae music. Roots Reggae Music is firmly planted in green pastures. It stays the same, just grows and becomes even more firmly planted.

The word "Roots" indicates more than foundation, too. The word indicate life! Reggae Music is a living music. Because of the strong roots, there have been many fruitful seasons.

The music we have reviewed for today indicates all of this, and more. Give thanks to Jah for Roots Reggae Music!

Give Thanks, One Love,
Messian Dread (Dubroom Webmaster)

SLEEPER'S RECORD SHACK #3: MODERN ROOTS
DUBROOM MP3 REVIEW



WWW, September 2007 - Reggae Music is a living music. Some would like to keep it somewhere back in the 1970's and pretend the music died somewhere back in that time.

Mick sleeper isn't like that, as he spins a couple of crucial Modern Roots tunes that will cause Babylon to catch a fire once more!

Some call it the Rasta Renaissance: in the 1990's the Bobo Shanti House of Rastafari gained a significance voice in Reggae Music. The Bobo's had thus far not really been that visible within the Reggae Industry, but they came on a mission.

The Bobo Shanti's came to clean up the Dance. Their massive movement was a direct answer to the slackness and cokane-influenced Dancehall that seemed to run the Jamaican Dancehalls during a significant part of the late 1980's.

This episode of Mick Sleeper's Record Shack is completely livicated to the Rasta Renaissance. Lot's of Fire Burning in this selection, nuff chanting down Babylon. Singers and DJ's in a non-stop mix of Rasta Righteousness to lift up our consciousness.

Video: Luciano and Capital D at Rebel Salute 2005

LUCIANO & CAPITAL D - LIVE @ REBEL SALUTE 2005
Dubroom (DUB) Reggae Video Review



WWW, September 2007 - The video of this impressive performance will reveal to the viewer just why Luciano is called "the MessenJAH".

Luciano never fails to impress his audience. This website has heard how even people that hate Rasta and would like to "reform" Reggae Music had to admit how Luciano was touching them with his message.

In this video we will see him in uniform of JAH Army, chanting down Babylon and lifting up his audience. The band plays a heavyweight Roots Music with lots of instruments dropping in and out, while the backing singers are perfectly in tune.

As the band plays the Peter Tosh classic "Legalize It", 5 minutes into the video Luciano steps back for another vocalist, Capital D. The Singers and Players of Instruments then deliver a strong message that Babylon feels big time.

There's one side remark about the video itself. Unfortunately, we do not see the full tracks. The music flow is close to perfect, though.
