WE A RAGGAMUFFIN
DUBROOM MP3 REVIEW
WWW, November 2007 - When a mix is called "We A Raggamuffin" and the first selection is a crucial worship of JAH coming straight from the very private collection of the Steppin' Youth Sound System, JAH JAH Children know they're going to listen to some more uplifting sounds! "Raggamuffin" can mean many different things. Sure, it's the name of a specific style of Reggae. The word also refers to Ghetto Youths, many of them involved in Music too.
The Jamaican version of "Gangster Rap"? Hmmm... Not quite. Many of the Raggamuffin or Ghetto Youth give thanks and praises to the Most High in a situation where many would curse JAH.
Yes, survival is a must and even the King James Version says not to judge the poor when they steal a bread to feed himself and his family. A thing which the churches seem to ignore, but JAH doesn't forget it and neither do the Ghetto Youth.
This very reasoning seems to be the theme behind another great podcast by the Paris based Steppin' Youth Sound System. Great selections by Mikal Rose and Yami Bolo, to name just two out of -what is really- many.
The focus of the 23 track mix is on digital riddims, heartically voiced and dubbed where the selectors themselves add stuff to the music continually as well.
A Big Up to all Ghetto Youths we are thankful to forward!
