Bob Marley - Bad Card (1980)
Taken from Bob's Uprising, the last album he would
release before he passed away. Bob reminds you to remain honest and keep a clean heart ñ especially
in this business. An incredible tune from Bob. Dennis Brown - To The Foundation (1981)
Another cut from my favourite reggae
artists ever. Crowned the Prince of Reggae, it's always important to school the young fans about the
origins of great vocal tunes. This one was one of his best.
Beres Hammond - Tempted To Touch (1990)
Beres is the reeeaalll veteran in
reggae and is still going strong in 2005!! I can't believe this is already 15 years old. A classic
tune and a big international hit for Beres.
Buju Banton & Wayne Wonder - Bonafide Love (1994)
Nice collaboration from
the two big men inna da business! Wayne and Buju compliment each other perfectly on this track.
Dennis Brown - Revolution (1999)
Any true reggae selector always has a
Dennis Brown in their box. I love the lyrics of this tune as the words Dennis sang have as much
relevance now as they did back then.
I Wayne - Can't Satisfy Her (2004)
I like this single because it came about
at a time when the dancing songs were the ruling the dancefloor. This is the single that broke the
monotony.
Sizzla - Give Me A Try (2004)
Taken from Sizzla's Rise to the Occasion LP. A
nice tune from Kalonji. There's so many Sizzla tunes I could have chosen but this one is a little
less obvious and the girls love it. A murder!
Jah Cure - Bless Me (2004)
2004 was definitely Jah Cure's year! He may be
behind bars but he must be getting some serious recording time as this tune is baaad! Big anthem for
the end of the night. Jah Cure is the hottest artist anywhere right now.
T.O.K - Footprints (2005)
This tune amazed a lot of people as they didn't
think a group like T.O.K could ever make a vocal reggae tune this good! But trust me, this is the
biggest tune on road and has already made it to the number one spot on the 1Xtra dancehall chart.
Akon - Ghetto (2005)
Akon's talent transcends across all music genres and
his voice has captured the attention of reggae, hip hop, RnB and African music fans. Ghetto is just
that - the tune for the streets. I always get forwards off this tune no matter who or where the
crowd is. Robbo Ranx - 14 March 05
What's the biggest vocal riddim
ever?
