The Upsetters - Dread Lion

[sernine]

This is the song (and later the entire album) that put me into reggae.

this is the ultimate combination of dub roots and reggae vibes.

Listening to this this album is like smoking marijuana with your ears!!

[johhnyjamaine]

i love this song

[jefersonvilaede]

stop dividing it. its dub, its reggae, its roots. !!!!

[mcnicken111]

This song makes every single hair on my body rise, as if it were saluting this fine piece of art. Well done Mr. Lee Perry

[MarkusAudio]

[OmniscientMalboroMan]

@coldcrushkilla3000 Yeah, it actually moves :D

[TehSponge01]

super ape is by far the best reggae album ever

[TerrierBram]

@TehSponge01 It is actually Dub, but yeah, it is very good.

[Hoxoe]

@TehSponge01 Not sure about the best reggae album ever but definitely one the baddest in the Dub category.

RESPECT

[merlijnist]

[billyshitcheese2]

@myskunk1 all dem boring drugs gonna make you slow

[MrBrianlowdown]

love the dub

[Bmants]

Heavy heavy music that helped to make the classic movie Rockers so strong.

[55mandreck]

I personally do not do weed anymore though I smoked buckets of it back in the day - till I realised it was making me ill with paranoia etc. - that is my story not a criticism of weed far from it if it works for you go right ahead - I know it has many health benefits - like easing the pressure in the eye for GLAUCOMA ...

keep of the tobacco it really is terrible habit ansd so hard to stop .... I would recommend - Allen Carr 's book and video for anyone interested in stopping smoking - google x

[Xolition]

I don't smoke, but this makes me want to smoke, so bad.

[55mandreck]

@Xolition I dont' know how old you are but whatever you do do not make a spliff with TOBACCO in it !!!!!

It is the most addictive substance known to human kind - there are some good alternatives like " COLTSFOOT "-

OR "MULlIEN HERB" - if you smoke pure weed for the first time it will be too strong so only have a couple of tokes ,,,,, seriously it is the biggest mistake young people make: to roll it up with TOBACCO - over a lifetime a smoker spends on average £ 55,000 - yes that's POUNDS m8

[BenjaminBlunttt]

@55mandreck ***if you smoke pure weed for the first time it will be too strong, if your a pussy.

[ASTstoner]

@BenjaminBlunttt Pussy.

[EmptyPlanetFilms]

@55mandreck

Brahda, adding tobacco in a spliff lets it have a clean easy burn. And you don' have to relight your spliffs mon. Ganja don' stay lit for I an I mon without some tobacco in a spliff.

[dometrip]

@EmptyPlanetFilms a spliff is weed and tobacco. if theres no tobacco then it is just a joint

[tunalik]

@dometrip maybe to you but not to everyone, Spliff is just a slang term for a joint and has many different characteristics depending on who rolls it.
