Lines: 37 Hear Hear! It's about time somebody discussed dis ya reggae musik on net.music! There were some very good points made, also. I believe you'll find that most reggae music is of the "we can make it work" variety, no matter what color or religion. People who come looking for the "kill the white man" mentality just won't find it. What they will find is disgust with the sysytem (babylon), which in most cases is run by whites. For those of you interested in hearing some of this music, here are a few more titles to check out: Bob Marley and the Wailers: most anything, but especially Uprising Kaya Catch A Fire Peter Tosh: Equal Rights Legalize It Wanted Dread or Alive Toots and the Maytals: Funky Kington Live Reggae Got Soul Black Uhuru Anthem Chill Out Sinsemilla These are some of my personal favorites, but not necessarily the most political. For that, you might check out Linton Kwesi Johnson, Mutabaruka, or Michael Smith. One Love, Glenn Kincaid
