Much respect to Jamaica. My mom is from Jamaica and growing up, spoke of the beautiful island nation she grew up in. The music, the food, the people. Having been there numerous times, I love Jamaica!

Love me some Peter Tosh and Bob Marley...

Big Ups and Nuff Respect to "Da Yawd!"...

Your beautiful country gave us Reggae,Ska,Dub and Dancehall...whose influence birthed us Reggaeton,Punk-Ska, Dubstep and other variants of EDM

Even Hip Hop was founded by a Jamaican DJ (Kool Herc)....

Again Nuff Respect!!

Jamaicans have been chatting over tunes few decades before with Toasting. Toasting was the mother of it all, without that there would be no hip hop or DJ Kool!

My grandmother is Jamacian, and came on the Windrush ship to England after the world war 2. That UB40 tune reminds me so much of her. My Nan was the greatest person that ever lived, truely a beauitful and amazing woman.

Would love to go back there too.

I think Peter Tosh was so underrated.
