Text Quotes
There's a glorious sense of freedom in comedy, just allowing myself to tell jokes, allowing myself to interrupt myself and tell old African folk stories that I made up - or didn't - and Jamaican stories  (Jamaican Quotes) I would like to work with anyone in the business who wants to give respect back to the Jamaican vibe  (Jamaican Quotes) My flow follows sometimes what’s going on in the hip-hop industry even though I’m speaking Jamaican patois  (Jamaican Quotes) Jamaican music can be aggressive, soulful, smooth and exciting all at once - just like hip-hop. At the same time, there’s nothing like Jamaica in the United States. Jamaica is its own thing  (Jamaican Quotes) I’m an artist. And I’m happy that I was there at the commencement of this music, this Jamaican music, to put my contribution and help to establish it  (Jamaican Quotes) When we were in D.C. my daddy used to cut his hair with a bowl. Crucial. If you’re African, Haitan, Jamaican or even more poor than the people in the project, you’ll know about that.  (Jamaican Quotes) When I lived in the U.K., I recorded a lot of ska and rock-steady styles of Jamaican music. But people there weren’t accepting it. So I began using a faster reggae beat.  (Jamaican Quotes) My dad knows every single accent from being an old Yiddish grandpa to being Indian or Jamaican. It was very cool to grow up with that.  (Jamaican Quotes) I got into dub a long time ago.

I just thought it was such an unusual sound.  (Jamaican Quotes) There are so many Jamaican people here in London, it’s going to be like being at home for me  (Jamaican Quotes) I can remember the first time I ever recorded my vocals on to a beat. Cat Coore from Third World - a legendary Jamaican band - had a little demo set up at his house. I’m very good friends with his eldest son, Shiah, who plays with me now. So we were rhyming over a track by the dancehall artist Peter Metro. I’ve still got it somewhere.  (Jamaican Quotes) To me, our music is like Jamaican stuff - if they can’t hear it, they’re not supposed to hear it. It’s not for them if they can’t understand it.  (Jamaican Quotes)
