  • whoever dont like this choon is insane lol

  • Reggae music is soooo amazing I was one of the luckiest people on earth who was born into this type of music being that my parents are both jamaicans. There was sooo much love and peace when listening to this type of music it always made you happy especially when growing up in England when having to deal with the skinheads and racists, we would go out and man all our woes were forgotten this is what this type of music did.

  • @honeyzshaz1

    dont let racism worry you, do good, the person, begins to change his view. black people were made out to be evil n bad whereas white as heavenly n pure. (media - brain wash). But the truth was different yet the black people esp thru ska/rock steady, reggae, dub are able to preacher equal rights and justice for all, not one skin colour, but for everyone, right? read 'selected writings of marcus garvey' - no racism except allow Blacks to rule Africa

  • @LigsJr Every generation hates on the next. People older than you said this was not real music lalala

    

  • Comment removed

  • @LigsJr old always hate on the young. From lions to humans.

  • Comment removed

  • @LigsJr WHat world are you living in? I dont see any old leading young. All I see is the robbing od the future generations stability and resources. Why do you think todays generation feels so hopeless? Because of the problems they inheret from past generations. The next generations wont even have clean drinking water. TOday many people already dont! The old dont know how to relate to the young so the young feel abandoned and find family in the streets and gangs to try and replace the love.

  • Comment removed

  • @LigsJr Now now. No need for that. Calm down. Sit back in that rocking chair. I think your bloodpressure just went up. Did you really just quote jesus then call me bad names? geeez. I suggest you go talk to ten young people on your street and see the consensus. I didnt choose for it to be this way. I am simply the messenger. Like jesus!

  • Comment removed

  • @LigsJr You said there's no hate in the vocabulary of reggae. Did I touch on a sensitive topic? Whatever your issues calling people names on youtube is never the way to deal with it. I suggest prayer, fasting, yoga...

    If you talk like this to the younger generation it would be no wonder they dont respect you

  • Comment removed

  • @LigsJr Why are you so angry? Did I touch a nerve? Does the internet make you feel tough? You should try and act the same way on youtube you would in person. If you saw me you would be looking at the ground. No disrespect or momma disses would be flying. Like I said in the first place, the older generation ALWAYS hates on the younger. Was like this with rocknroll, was like this with reggae and now with dancehall. Natures patterns.

  • @LigsJr I personally knew peter tosh, carleton barret, family man, burning spear...I could go on. These people use to visit my house when I was a child. ITs not my fault you are out of touch with reality and cannot relate to the now generation. It tells you alot about someone when they are quick to pull out the disrespect and suck yah madda business. You cannot spread your misery. I am so thankful for life. You should have been an abortion.

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • @LigsJr Do u go on with "suck yuh madda" business when you "reason" with them? I think not. Internet is safe I guess. You should join kickboxing or sumn. Deal with that built up aggression. OK jr? Or if you have so much issue with gaza and gully fans you can go to one of their shows and tell the people to their faces what you think. Not anonimously over youtube. Words are spells. Careful what you weave. May the lord protect you from your karma. Amen

  • Comment removed

  • @LigsJr YES you did say that. Several times! Then you turn around and call me loudmouth? Project much? I get it now. You dont have an expiration date but I do. Psychoanalyzing that I would say you are scared to die. Is that right jr? How would you know if anyone cares about me? Are you kidding me? Cant you think of better disses that "assclown"? I bleach my skin? Really? Thats news to me. I get bottled too. My my my. You know my life better than I do!

  • @LigsJr You just attracted lightning bolts into your life. Remember I taught you words are spells? Smarten up jr. I dont want to see you attract more wicked energy into your system. Its dangerous!

  • Comment removed

  • @LigsJr How do you know who likes or dislikes me? Have you met me before? Are you the representative of EVERYONE? Do you see how ridiculous you sound? You fuck my mother? NO ONE likes me? This is how children fight. Are you a child jr? The wicked who are cut down like grass are those who rise up against my people the children of israel. Those who bless israel are blessed. Those who curse israel are cursed. Are you blessed or cursed jr? Someone certainly needs to "keepeth" their mouth closed.

  • Comment removed

  • @LigsJr When is the last time you supported israel or zionism? You are a faker. Is jordan in the middle east? Is lebanon in the middle east? Israel is a fulfillment of prophecy. These are the last days. The lord of israel is the creator of the universe. You dont know anything about israel. btw mr trinity, marcus garvey was a methodist christain dissed sellase who was an ethiopian orthadox. Sellase sent his bishop to jamaica to convert rastas and build chruches. Deal with it.

  • Comment removed

  • @LigsJr Have you seen "the gate" jr? Guaranteed you wont sell 1000 albums in your life. Keep up the good work.

  • Comment removed

  • @LigsJr Have you ever performed for more than 20 people? Can you post a video? Show a flyer? You should put your own song to play as soon as you click on your page. I want everyone to share the laughter. Have you been to israel or ethiopia? Go support the children of israel and make your life worth something. Israel is under attack on many fronts and god is watching to see who will stand up for those in need.

  • Comment removed

  • @LigsJr 30 people? HAha. Post your first video. Post any performance you did with more than 10 people. Post one of your flyers. Seems you have an obsession with the opinions of "everyone". U say shit like "noone likes you". COme on man. What a childish thing to say to a stranger. Post your video. Unless you are becoming aware that you have no talent. The shit i flush down the toilet is more talented than you. Is cookie monster your favorite from sesame street jr?

  • Comment removed

  • @LigsJr You are officially projecting your insecurities. You are a plumber! You clean shit pipes! I did look through your vids and couldnt find your amazing performances. SO I said post them here. You didnt. End of story. Playing in a bar in your neighboring city is not travelling over the world. Prove me wrong. I dont hate on black people just because I tell you whats up. You are wack. I am guessing you cleaned shitty toilets at mcdonalds and didnt like it but dream to tour earth. hmmm

  • Comment removed

  • @LigsJr So you admit cleaning shit pipes. Then why would you accuse me of doing what you do? Who cares if it is at mcdonalds. I dont work at mcdonalds. I dont live in my mothers basement. I called you out on your performances which you said were in your videos. They arent. If they are then post one and we can have a laugh, IT is the best medicine. How do you know how much money I make? I studied engineering idiot boy. I suggest you study vocal tones and rythems. YOU are lacking.

  • Comment removed

  • @LigsJr Hey jr, how come you deleted all your commentS? Do you know how funny they werE? You give russell peters a run for his money. Especially with your comedy music. Lord have mercy. I will leave the toilet pipe cleaning to you mr plumber. Im sure you do a great job. I was hoping you would post one of your performances. I think you realize how funny thatwould be

  • @zionbound1 come back when you have better come backs

    and i'll tell russell peters to make some good jokes about you LyingBound1

    unlike you i make good music, you couldn't even make music if you're life depended on it.

    Come to Jamaica and chat fuckry and see if yuh don't end up inna may pen cemetery

  • @LigsJr and i guess di reason yuh love to talk about toliets is because yuh mek gyal siddung inna yuh face like toilet wit dem bloodclaat period.

    yuh styll proving my point, yuh too obssessed wit man, go look ah gyal

  • @LigsJr You brought up toilet pipes. I simply pointed out that you are projecting as that is actually your job. You brought up fuck your mother talk. Now you bring up menstrating women and obsession with man talk. Watch how you talk to strangers. We all end up in the ground. Some sooner than others. Where are going after? Have you made peace with the lord of israel? The god of sellase. The god of the bible. And I have to peel the girls off me. I think babylon put hormones in the food. Bumbaclat

  • @LigsJr You brought up toilet pipes. I simply pointed out that you are projecting as that is actually your job. You brought up ffuck your mother talk. Now you bring up menstrating women and obsession with man talk. Watch how you talk to strangers. We all end up in the ground. Some sooner than others. Where are going after? Have you made peace with the lord of israel? The god of sellase. The god of the bible. And I have to peel the girls off me. I think babylon put hormones in the food.Bumbaclat

  • @zionbound1 yuh nuh luv woman datz why yuh nuh have any

    yuh wah play badman so come ah jamaica and try bad up yuhself

    i think babylon put microchip inna yuh brain

    so move from here yuh dutty lucifer worker

  • @LigsJr Sorry jr. You have all the woman you big pimp you. You said you even have my mother. Is there any girl you dont have? Do they line up outside your dressing room? Do you get a different one in every city? You are god. Its ok you wont post one of your performances. Im sure you dont have the time between your 72 virgins, 99 wives and 999 concubines. Plus you got to clean shitty pipes when you work as a plumber. I just booked a 1way ticket to kingston. Ill youtube you from the airport. pce

  • @zionbound1 hahahahahahahahahaha you should make a book with ur crazy imagination

  • @LigsJr You should hear the songs I write they Kk RAZY! Vvirgin ww hores, kosher bores, peacekeeping wars and disease that acts like cures. Im tellin you. I know if I ask this you will say I am a luciferian jewish agent etc but...methodist marcus garvey prophecised and then dissed ethiopian orthadox haile sellase. How do you reconcile that fact? Also the nazerine vow in the torah has a time when you cut of your hair. Also sellase didnt have dreads. Would you call him a baldhead?

  • @LigsJr I was in jamaica in 1987 when it was the murder capital of the world. We were with carleton barret and he was laying the drums for one of our artists. Unfortunatly he was murdered. I have been living on my own since 12. You dont own jamaica or the opinion of "everyone". Post one of your performances please.

  • @LigsJr That someone is the one who speaks about fucking mothers and then turns around and says keep your mouth. And why do you speak in king james old english. Is your soul still colonized? Break free from that devil religion. Go read the real true ancient hebrew direct translation. Cut out the middleman. Are you the youtube police or just a disgruntled being yelling at the youth from the internet? Like I said go to a gaza or gully show and tell them what you think. OK fakeR? Internet thugs! ha

  • Comment removed

  • @LigsJr You are the one who mentioned mothers. You are the one who mentioned sexual acts. Now its assclown. rape. Are these the things on your mind jr? Your music sucks. Stop trying to imitate sizzla. You grumble too much. Maybe singing lessons? You say no one likes me, I work with police, you fuck my mother blablabla. Then you have the nerve to say you speak rightous words? Are you kidding me? "keepeth" is old english.

  • Comment removed

  • @LigsJr more perverted thoughts from the most untalented cookie monster rapper of all time. Again, go to the gaza show and tell them whats up. You will never do that. Youtube is safer?

  • am i the only one who thinks alton ellis is far better than bob marley?

  • @Kinshasa9200 hes not far better.

  • @XxXellusionistXxX

    yeah you're right. it's just that as a college student. i get sick and tired of all the stereotypical stoners w/ bob marley posters. i'm like "there's more reggae," inhale joint, " than just bob marley." stereotypical stoner "wha?"

  • @Kinshasa9200 "cheaaa dudddeee check out my fuzzy neon marley poster!! i got it from spencers!"  you gotta lead them to the greener grass on the other side

  • @Kinshasa9200 OMG YOU HAVE NO IDEA NO IDEA how mad that makes me , my family is from trinidad , a island just south of jamaica , and i know ALOT of calypso and soca and reaggae ,rocksteady , not to much ska , and i ahte it m whenever im smoking weed with my friends they no , no more about reggae then bob , and bob is my favourite , but liek theres muchh more

  • @XxXellusionistXxX

    word. well next time i'm in your area or vice versa, we can spark a joint and listen to some rocksteady haha

  • @XxXellusionistXxX Yeah nuff more riddims out there for you to chill out to. Big respect. :-)

  • @Kinshasa9200 I can see where your comming from but, Alton and Bob are two totally different types of artist so its difficult to compare them. I personally prefer Altons voice because its so melodious, but the music they both produced through out there respective careers is fantastic and in my opinion should not be compared but enjoyed. One Love :-)

  • @Kinshasa9200 NO.

  • Can anyone lend any credence to the notion that Alton once resided in Northolt, West London. A friend of mine used to maintain that he went to his house there on a few occasions....

  • @mrbillhicks If it is true then tell you friend he's a lucky sod and that I want the Dub Plates he must have. I there's noway he would have been visiting such a legend without asking him to do a few for him. :-)

  • le bonheur
