Whats Poppin'

Sean Kingston Issue release party wasn't 'Beautiful'

SEANK_edit.jpgBwoy di word from mi New York contact is dat Sean Kingston’s Issue release party by Squeeze di odda day was a big flop. If yuh neva mind sharp it coulda meck any artiste get suicidal. Di turn out low and wi undastan sey nuff a di people dme nuh waan support Kingston either.

Come on man, give a brotha a break.

I too question why Dennis Brown and Peter Tosh has not gotten any awards for their important contribution to our music and culture. I have been writing about this for the past nine years ( Jamaicans.com, westindiantimes.net and CaribbeanStyle news paper). Besides Marley Dennis s the most important, successful and influential singer of his generation and Jamaican music history. No other singer in our music history. There would be no Marley w/out Peter Tosh and his contribution is still not recognized.

You are right, every year awards are given out but none of us are ever told the criteria to be met to qualify for an award. Since do not know the criteria needed to qualify for order of OD however it begs the question what has Mrs Cedella Marley-Booker done which make her more qualified than Dennis Brown and Peter Tosh.

Mavado, despite his setbacks is arguably the best find of his generation. His success is to be commended and i support his artistic creative license to make his music. His literal lyrics are just as violent as Marley metaphorical violent musings.(feel like bombing a church, it takes a revolution to make a solution) But while I will concede that Mavado life experience as it relates to violence is decidedly different from Bob's- Bob, despite the violence he saw never lived thru 15000 murders annually. Mavado lyrics reflect the violent nature of the society which brought him up, however he lacks the social acumen to know that his responsibility is to not throw kerosene of blazing fire. His lyrics at this point in time are gas on burning house, the question for him is, is he willing to continue to pour gas on his bleeding nation engulfed in the flames of his brothers, sister blood.
