sms_0806 Ziggy Marley
I gotta give credit to Jimmy Fallon because he had Ziggy Marley perform ‘Forward To Love’ on his show a couple times so know i get a chance to interview him. One question we’re gonna ask is him is ‘Why DEA is Against Legalizing Smoked Marijuana? (YUPP)

Following the interview with his brother Stephen Marley, we now catch up with another son of the legendary Robert ‘Bob’ Marley on the Sunsplash Mix Show. This radio show dedicated to introduce the Atlanta audience to new Reggae and Dancehall music plus a steady stream of artist interviews.

We’re gonna ask him about his new album ‘Wild and Free’ and tour dates across the globe including Japan, USA and Europe when he bumped into Chuck D original Public Enemy in switzerland at the open air hip hop festival.

Shaggy – “Sugarcane” [VIDEO]


Another high quality video out of Jamaica with the star of the show SHAGGY. As you watch this reggae video, I am sure you ALL KNOW what the reference to ‘Sugar Cane’ is but Shaggy does a great job of selling one of the reasons why female tourists visit the Caribbean islands. Shouts to team at CY Clothing Inc. on the 45 Special tee, the leading lady Chantelle, her sister Krystal and my good UK friend Nickkkkkkers who did a good cameo in the video ( @nic_kers ).

The History Of Reggae Music In The UK Documentary (Video)


Check out this great documentary from the BBC about the history of reggae music as it immediately captured the hearts of fans in the UK from the 60’s to present day. British bands & artists of every genre from rock, pop, soul, & others were influenced by the reggae music that came from Jamaica & it was evident in the sounds that these bands were producing. The documentary is about an hour & a half long, but very interesting and educational if you are a fan of musical history like us.

Buju Banton Found Guilty On Federal Cocaine Charges In Florida

Buju Banton was found guilty of cocaine charges yesterday in a Tampa courtroom.  Like sunshine & rain the popular reggae star had just won a Grammy award a little over a week ago for his ‘Behind The Dawn’ album, but the bad news came down yesterday with him facing 15 years to life imprisonment.  A 12 member jury found him guilty on 3 counts including conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute.   This will be a huge blow to the reggae music community because just like hip hop has been at a serious crossroads as an artform so has reggae & dancehall.  Buju, who’s real name is Mark Anthony Myrie, expressed in court proceedings that he was setup by a man who turned out to be a government informant he met on a plane by the name of Alexander Johnson.  According to reports the informant allegedly netted $50,000 for helping lure Buju into federal custody & has made over $3 Million dollars as a paid informant for over 14 years.  What possibly sealed Buju’s conviction was they had him on videotape tasting the cocaine in a warehouse.  Overall its a very unfortunate situation not only for Buju, but for his 15 children, extended family members, fans, & supporters. Read the full associated press report HERE.
