    Thanks NØ! Thanks for another great offering, even if he was the pretender to the throne.

      Thanks, Charlie. Just my personal beef with Jammy. He took a lot of riddims with him when he moved to UK. He releases much of it on his Greensleeves label without compensating the original artists.

      Yeah! I knew exactly what you're talking about with so-called Jammy. Good music, problematic producer.

      I just have a personal beef with Jammy. Tubby was King & I didn't really mind that Jammy was Prince, but Scientist was also Prince. After Tubby's death, Jammy just claimed the title of King withou even having a Clash with Scientist to see who claimed the throne. My money has always been on Scientist. Then Jammy became one of those monarch who abused his position.

      I'm meet you at the station at 4:30. Dub Jah Yeah.
