Jamaican reggae is the style of music I always reach for when ranting to friends about how you could listen to one style of music exclusively for the rest of your life - and it would all be great and varied and worth hearing.
I pulled the Johnny character from the Jamaican Johnny Too Bad thing.
My flow follows sometimes what's going on in the hip-hop industry even though I'm speaking Jamaican patois.
Im Jamaican, man. Im Jamaican first. You gotta understand thats where Im from. Thats home. That you can never take away from me. Im a Jamaican-born Canadian sprinter.
I came from a very strict background, and didn't hear any Jamaican music when I was growing up.
It was the vehicle that propelled me to international stardom. ("Harder They Come") I was known as a singersongwriter before that, but people did not know me as an actor. It showed the world where the music I contributed to create was coming from. It opened the gates for Jamaican music, internationally.
I live in a neighborhood that's really filled with sound - there's a lot of Jamaican auto body shops, and the guys next door play hip hop.
Somebody should clip Sting around the head and tell him to stop using that ridiculous Jamaican accent.
