34 - Reggae Lover Podcast - The Lalabella Riddim and Protest Music #BlackLivesMatter




Reggae Lover show

Summary: The mix opens with Queen Ifrica, Anthony B, and Bushman singing about police brutality from a Jamaican perspective. Its similar to the state of affairs in America right now, but the authorities who perpetuate corruption on the Jamaican streets are also of African descent primarily. Riddims featured include Lalabella, Tempo, Shank I Sheck, Rockfort Rock, Promised Land, and Darker Shade of Black among others, while the subject-matter is conscious, spiritual and cultural. The finale is "Splashing Dashing" - the 23rd Psalm being performed by Garnett Silk on the Fattis Burrell Exterminator label’s version named Champion In The Arena. Rest In Peace to Garnett Silk who flew away home almost exactly 20 years ago.
