Nothing can touch 80's and 90's Roots Reggae and Dancehall!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🇯🇲🇯🇲

I’m Latino and I love reggae and afrobeats. Reggae is abundant in Latin America, and slowly Latin artists are starting to sing Afrobeat in Spanish. Thank you Nigeria and Jamaica for such good music 🙏🏽

Koffee is a perfect example of this, her music needs no censorship and her lyrics has brought her to the international stage… that’s where dancehall and reggae needs to be again 💯

Bounty Killer is such a wise man offering mature, constructive advice to young dancehall artists. Much respect to this king for embracing and celebrating Afrobeats, hopefully this will pave the way for more Carribean and African collaborations. Africa loves dancehall, most of us bere grew up listening to dancehall and still appreciate it. Hopefully the younger /newer artists will heed Bounty's advice. Thank you Bounty and the interviewer, stay blessed. God bless Dancehall 🙏🏾

“Put ego aside and do it for the music and people” powerful words

Facts someone needed to say it thank you 5 star 90's Dancehall still undefeated

What is destroying dancehall is the violence in the music. People are sick of it we want to hear music that uplift us.

Beautiful interview. Jamaicans need to heal as a nation then see the magic that will come out of its people. Raise up Jamaica!

This has to be rated as one of the honest interviewers by a Dance Hall artist I’ve ever seen. Straight from the heart, straight to one’s head top.

As a Nigerian growing up in the 90’s and early 2000’s dancehall was all I knew and it was quite big not just in my household and region but probably the whole of Nigeria. Till this day I still love dancehall and the memories that musicians like Maxi Priest and Shabaranks gave to me will live with me for the rest of my life. I hope to see this genre back on top some day.

Dancehall is not stuck in Jamaica, it's worldwide and it definitely influences afrobeats 100%

Every genre has its time, it’s afrobeat time. I love dancehall, rap, funk, pop, bashment

I am a Nigerian🇳🇬 and I agree with everything he said. Dancehall will rise again I know.

Bounty has evolved so much. I have truly grown to appreciate him so much more. He has a lot to offer. A true teacher and genius in his field. 👑

Oh man this is such an good interview. He is so on point with everything he said. At the moment I don't listen to the new dance hall its not relatable, too much violence, hypersexualized and full of negative energy. I love 90s and 2000s dancehall, they are legendary. I have been mostly listening and to afrobeats. Although I don't understand everything they say its just easier to vibe with it. Bounty is so right! Hats off to him for highlighting this.

Bounty speaks the truth. 90's Dancehall was on 🔥. Shaba Ranks, Chaka Demars & Piers, Patra, etc brings back many memories. Respect to Bounty. Respect from South Africa 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

Afro beats don't talk about offing people and marrow fly.... Just pure vibes...

I'm a jamaican and 💯 agree, I've stopped listening to Dancehall for over a decade due to the violence and lyrics degrading women. Afrobeat is relatable and has a vibe, everyone can listen to it. It can be played at every occasion. I'm gutted these young uneducated dancehall artist taking advantage of the road paved by these OG's. Schools and industry can't help these hot headed artist. All on their minds is war and quick money. Very very sad!

He touched on something more deeper than just the music here. I hope people hear the message. 1❤

BK you are correct. The pandemic has fueled the emergence of Afrobeats. Globally, we needed a reason to smile and dance and Afrobeats has risen to the occasion. Afrobeats also comprises multiple languages and dialects, but the rhythms connect with people all over the world.. One more point, recently Afrobeats was a part of an NBA event and several black Americans said they couldn't understand the Afrobeats performers. I said, who cares, just dance and be happy.

Afrobeats also does not need to be censored. Most Dancehall does. I love them both❤

I wish all artists had the chance to watch this. One luv from Senegal 👌🏾🇸🇳

It's not a competition. We should be proud that black music is doing well.

That Ye Ye Ye Part Killed This Interview Long Live Dancehall Music....I 💯 percent With You Bounty Killer

I agree 100%!! I love 90s dancehall, that's the only dancehall I listen to when I do. Afrobeats to me is positive, high vibrational music this is why it's so big now. I'm proud of my Jamaican heritage but when it comes to the music we need to do alot better. Most people don't want to go to a party and hear music that talks about violence and vulgar sex!

💯 I wish we could come together and make dancehall great again!🇯🇲🇯🇲

Afrobeat,Reggae and Dancehall for life 🙏🏾✌🏾❤️❤️❤️

Shout out to Bounty! Wise words were spoken. We need more unity as Black people across the board. Jamaicans have to be more united and have that togetherness.

I always felt and still feel that the 90's and 2000's were the best time for dancehall music. The artists style and the riddims were on a different level.

As a Guyanese who grew up on 90 dance-hall music i fully agree with Bounty. One of the things that made dance-hall strong is when all of the top performers got on one beat...that was killer... under water beat, show time beat, anger management beat, penthouse beat.... bring back those days.

I have been saying this about dancehall music but Bounty Kill articulate it better than I could. I feel this Bounty Killer, good interview!

I LOVED every word he said and the accent made it that much better. Also I appreciate how the interviewer just allowed him to speak without interrupting. Amazing video

No lies told - 90s dancehall was the best, full of creativity

Bounty told us over 10 years ago where dancehall would end up if the culture doesn't change and he was absolutely right. He predicted the future.

Best interview for the next 25 years he's not only the best lyricist.. also the best of putting words together, you don't have to be a genius to understand,,, every black artis should see this interview 🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇯🇲🇯🇲🇭🇹

I didn’t know what to expect when I saw this thumbnail but I’m sure glad that I clicked on to watch. Hands down one of the best interviews! Bounty should be in artist development with his knowledge. Big ups!!

20 yrs from now this interview gonna be more relevant

As a Jamaican it hurts to see other nations, even Albanians Romanians and Bulgarians..pick up the sound run with it and get successful whilst the originators cannot find it in their hearts to unite..."if you don't use it you will lose it"

For those (Afro-Americans) thinking music in our countries in Africa never existed before Afrobeat... this means you are totally uncultivated. Even our native French people have been dancing over: - Soukousse music of Kofi Olomide, Quartier Latin, Papa Wemba... (From Congo/Zaïre), - Coupé Décallé avec DJ Arafat, Magic Système... (from Ivory Coast, - Zoul love (Cameroon, Ivory Coast, Gabon...) - Reggae (Senegal, Mali...) - Makossa (from Cameroon) - Rumba (From Congo) - Raï, Reggae (Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia) etc. etc. - Soul music from South Africa There are so much varieties of very popular music we have and coming from all the countries in our Motherland Africa that is also the Motherland of all the Afro-Americans / Caribbeans/ Europeans as the first man came from Africa. This continent is the land of all as Men history had started from there. The one whose ashame of this will be lost forever, no matter his intelligence, skills... Afro-Americans are descendants of Africans whom travelled to America deliberately to spread their culture and mostly Islam as the majority were Muslims. As well, there were Persians, the Ottomans (called Turkey today), Black Arabs as the real Arabs have always been black whom came from Sudan centuries before they landed in Middle East. The Arabs of today are the ones who've mixed the Black Arabs but whom the majority came from the Persia, Ottoman empire, the Roman Empire, Balkans... Whatsoever, the African-Americans who complain about Burna Boy comments worries about their images... nothing else. Today if the land of Africa is being valued similarly as when the time of the ancient Egypt being led by pure black people from Africa being worshipped by the Europeans and the rest of the world, and the United States of America end up deserted... the same people crying out about Burna Boy comment will be asked to be enslaved to come back to home in their Motherland called Africa. They will even forget about their mixture with Amer-Indians with Spanish, French, Irish etc. as this is another thing that worry them as well... their look like their narrow features, smooth hair, all sorts of mixture... things that are unnecessary and that affects a whole community.

Great analysis , I hear maturity, wit, consciousness, global insights, outstanding command of the issue. Haiti loves you King! Stay positive!

Afro-Beats are fun for the most part. It's like we don't see any screw face cuss cuss, in the videos. I still love dancehall, but the Afro-Beats feel is a whole different vibe

The first time I heard Bounty Killah I literally got shivers. Never heard such a voice bussin out such an amount of energy. The "Guns out" clash album netween him and Beenie Man is a treasure of my youth. Still play it to this day.

You make a lot of sense.. The afro beats have really come alive. I love it and I am a Jamaican. They tell a simple story with expressive dance moves that are great. The Spanish beats are also coming up strong. I think some of the dance hall should listen to some of the beautiful sounds coming out of afrobeats.

I am so impressed with these latest interviews with Bounty… His points are on target and his arguments and analysis are incredibly invaluable. He has transitioned from a DJ into an ardent Musician. Congratulations. Bright and mature 💥

*It's not about the regional thing at all:* 1. Afrobeats is a purely regional music. Half of the chorus of "Last Last" isn't even in English, it's in Igbo. So the regional argument is not really valid. 2. Afrobeats is fun. Dancehall is dark now - Artists calling themselves demons and only talking about violence and unusual sexual acts. They need to make dancehall fun again like the late 90's and early 2000's. 3. All music genres have their "15 minutes of fame" so to speak. No genre stays on top forever. Rock and Roll was the big thing in the 80's. Then pop. Now hip hop is the new pop, but afrobeats is next up. Burna Boy is even doing songs with the reggaeton artists now, smart move, that will make his presence even bigger on the international scene. Dancehall and reggae artists need to take note and follow suit.

Thanks for this interview!!. Until now, I never knew BountyKilla Thought beyond the borders of his country. His mind shines here.

That's what made newer artist like Koffee so popular and engaging. Her style and different style and the songs she made was a breath of fresh air.

Bounty killer you talking facts ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Wicked interview. I’m Jamaican and love my old school dancehall and the singers. Today’s dancehall is not cutting it for me.

Topic - Argument - Melody - technicality on low - thanks sensei!

Peace...Im Ashanti man born in Nyc .80s and 90s dancehall was hittin" hard it will rise again

I am an African, from The Gambia. Bounty Killa is truly and very right about dancehall. The energy of dancehall is no match for afrobeats, not even for any other musical platform. Dancehall yesterday and dancehall are on a different road map. He talked about the artist fighting each other, which is going to be the real downfall of dancehall music because they will lose focus of the real picture for the future of what the elders have worked very hard for.

We need more bounty interviews like this. It'd classic

From America and love both. Have 400 songs of afrobeat and dancehall. Love chronic law from Jamaica. And kizz Daniel from Africa

If you check most of the music being played in different countries in Africa and since day 1, you will recognise some of your beat and understand where all these style you have today come from languages, food, music, spirituality etc. In Africa, you have everything you find in the world... all you need to do is to go and visit there. Even the Latinos music such as Salsa with the Spanish and Samba from Brasil come from that land. Africa is the pioneer of all that exist in this world. We people must be proud to have kept that skin colour to remind the world we are universe, we are their History 🙌🏾

He’s so right. Everything he said is spot on. Dancehall is losing its good vibe energy.

About time someone touch these topic that why people don’t like bounty killa because he speak 🗣 truth and fact, Bigup Bounty Killa

Thank you Bounty, love how you just kept it real. But said with love and no animosity.

Preach ... Bounty be dropping gems. Topics ! Seasoning that sonic food with ptsd, anger, fear or better vybes. Tired of war reports & lust in lyrics to be honest. I hope ogz will lead the ways with undisputed bangers from young producteurs. They have so many songs in the volt that never been heard, arranged, remixed ...

I love the Rodney Pryce edition of Bounty. He always has something to teach

You can tell he had this on his heart. He spoke the entire time without the interviewer asking another question. Dancehall artists today have to recognize that up until the late 2000’s to 2010’s Dancehall was a big genre in the world. The new artists haven’t pushed it forward and they don’t seem to care.

From New Jersey... I'm 56 and he hit it on the head when he mentioned 90's Dancehall!!!

May the almighty bless yah for louding it out. In each and everyway

Bounty, Buju , Capleton, Beenie Man, Shaggy etc... The biggest names and the most experience yet it would seem as if no one wants guidance or follow any blueprints as to which direction to take the music. Drop the ego and analyze the thing! That's why these DJs have had such longevity

Bounty Killa has definitely been a significant part of Dancehall. May Dancehall unite and become great again

As a british born Nigerian - whose grown up with all genres of music - its refreshing to hear Bounty killer talk - wisdom and intelligence , rather than focusing on media driven division , he explains so sucintly the issue - from the 80s , 90s , ive listened, produced music and Dj'd playing , hip , hop reggae , lovers , Rnb , house garage - bring back the days of reggae when a riddim would come out and artists would bring out - several hit versions using the same riddim - with great topics and lyrics you could sing along too easily !!!

Great to hear the legend talk about technical aspects of music

One thing I wish was that they could have the era of One Riddim, and 5-10 different artists on it. It leveled up everyone and created a better cohesive vibe.

Teach dem professor Bounty. These young dancehall artistes ego bigger than the genre. That's why dancehall is diminishing.

There were so many points made in this video!! I wish I could like it 100x!

Say no more legend always love and respect from Haiti 🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇯🇲🇯🇲

Best dancehall artiste eva. U r irreplaceable.

Yes man! 90's dance hall is everything!! I love it❤

Love you Bounty Killer...Still bumping "Magnet and the Steel" in 2023....

Dropping such gems

Fully agree Bounty- nobody could’ve said it better. “Afro artists don’t fight each other”- real talk 💯 %

Dancehall music is the heartbeat of Jamaica and will never die in our souls passed down from our ancestors. The problem is that society as a whole is so dumbed down that we don't have many great story tellers today. I love you Bounty you are the truth and that is why you will always be my favourite dancehall artist of all time.

Bounty is one of the realest inna da business.. everything he said was well analyzed and worded 👊🏼🔥🔥🔥why my 90s dancehall stays on replay

Big up the interviewer for allowing Killa to speak and not constantly cutting him off like Dutty Winford Williams and Andrew

This is why I love this man!!! Thank you so much for this interview!!!!

POWERFUL‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️ All these people disrespecting Killa during the Vegas war need to realize this man is a walking Legend a major pillar in dancehall history Vegas can not be compared no disrespect to Vegas a good talent. One of the greatest ever to do it, this what Vegas want to get cancelled out of dancehall SMH.

Much respect to this side of you Killa. You're definitely a student of your industry

He is right. Music is global. You have to make music for the world Ii still rock my dance hall music, love my 🇯🇲 family. Big love from 🇳🇬

I’m American and bounty killer is on point I’m still banging 2000 dancehall it’s easy to understand & relatable..

I grew up listening to dancehall in the 80s and 90s and I can't listen to what is being produced now days. The 90s was a golden era for dancehall and will probably never be topped. But to be fair most music genres had their heyday in the 90s, it was truly a very special decade for music. Big up to Bounty Killer for speaking the truth and breaking it down for us

I watched this because on social media they tried to make it like Bounty Killa was hating. This man is speak truth to power. 👑

This is a great discussion. Very profound.

When I first heard Afrobeat I was shocked at it. I thought real dancehall music was back!! Took awhile for to realize it was from Africa. Can't let it go. It remind me of the 80s-90s unity.

Killa the dancehall great.. respect the man’s level of reasoning

Killa reasonable ability unique. 4 some1 who some say is dunce he makes a lot of us wise up n feed us with a lot of knowledge musically. I really appreciate u killa. U were made 4 this.

As a Ghanaian growing up in New York, dancehall took over for the whole black diaspora in the 2000s. I went around saying I was Jamaican because of the hype but the way Afrobeats has taken over the world. Im even more proud to be African! 🇬🇭🇳🇬

7:00 Unity is everything for us ! Bless up ❤🎉

One love from Uganda 🇺🇬 .. Rodney chatting facts, as an African. I approve him statements

Bounty is my idol ! Dancehall is more than a money making institution. Dancehall teach youth a lot about their roots and culture, we can learn from the good and the bad. Each man ad is own experience, input and contribution. Bounty killer contributions is huge he is the giant and titan that this younger generation should learn from. Bounty you need to start your own organization to educate and unify dancehall.

Much love from Uganda❤️❤️🇺🇬 I totally agree with bounty

true still enjoy reggae and dancehall for the same reason lyric riddim is a plus .stright from south africa.

Very honest interview from the impressive Mr Price well said about the music scene. Thanks for all you do for the poor people of Jamaica as a fellow Jamaican am very proud that someone put themselves out to help. Hope things change soon on the travelling scene. Well done sir.

Bounty sounds like he's still performing a song even though he's just speaking. His whole vibe is music

Strong point killa d topic fi tru tru
