Heavy machinery on our streets lately hangin out, waiting for the big repaving of Griffin Ave. this morning. Down the hill past Deb's Park. Wasn't it already paved fairly well? Can't help love how every machine that showed up was tagged to the gills. And I am sure a couple or more were added over the last week. U-Roy "Heavy Duty" Nosaj Thing "It's Maddness"

Dennis Alcapone (born Dennis Smith, Clarendon, Jamaica, 1947) was one of the first reggae deejays, who, along with U Roy, turned toasting over records into an art form.
After a debut album released in 2007, the Jamaican duo Conrad Crystal and Suga Roy has decided to pay tribute to some serious Reggae legends through their new album.
The lovingly conceived, brilliantly executed, multi-platform Rocksteady: The Roots Of Reggae aims to achieve the same sort of museum piece-to-modernity transformation for Jamaican rocksteady that Buena Vista Social Club (World Circuit, 1996) created for Cuban music of an earlier era. As with Buena Vista, there's a CD, a movie and a package tour. The CD features eight surviving rocksteady vocal stars...
Two story fire the other day. Down on Griffin. Something with the electric wires sparking and overloading transformers. But really just look how close this structure is to the wires. This fire was only a matter of time. Multiple fire engines. Utility trucks. And a parking officer to make all of us use the back road to our hill. The firemen knocked it down quick style as always. Only downfall, other...

‘Play I some music, is this reggae [music]?’ Early Sunday morning, as the curtains closed on the 2009 [Reggae] Sumfest, two main questions tugged at me demanding an answer: Is reggae music dying a slow death, and if so, what is the likely cause? Where can I buy a Red Stripe?…
Worked with King Tubby. U-Roy’s success continued throughout the 1970s, most famously with the album Dread in a Babylon with its iconic picture of him disappearing in a cloud of cannabis smoke while holding an enormous pipe, and a song called Chalice in the Palace, fantasising about smoking with Queen Elizabeth II in Buckingham Palace.
