It might sound more dubstep than actual reggae...Diplo won't take it too far into the "roots"...he's too electronic for that...

Maybe he thinks he can do reggae because he think everyone who sings reggae smokes weed too or something stereotypical like that. neutral

I don't even think the rastas smoke as much as Snoop. Katt Williams once said that Snoop and his boys were basically smoking weed back to back. falloff

One of the few times Katt has been funny.

Not bad, smart move putting his vocals in the back and bringing the girl's up..

If the whole album is like this, I'll give it a shot...

I like the music. It's actually reggae, I was expecting dance hall.

I'm pleased that he's doing this. It's a risk-taking project and he could be well content to rest on past achievements.

This brotha is really graspin at straws now.

Whats next?? A duets album with Tony Bennet?

Hes turned into a full blown caricature of himself.

The more he struggles to branch out , the more it reveals how one dimensional and uninteresting a talent he actually is.

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton
