Рет қаралды 780,292
3 жыл бұрынShe may be from a small island but, her big voice made her stand out on stage and easily command everyone’s attention. Widely hyped as the female Shabba Ranks, she blazed the charts and made significant cameos in the golden era of hip hop and reggae crossovers in the U.S. throughout the 90’s. Then, she suddenly disappeared from the spotlight. Let’s find out whatever happened to Jamaican reggae/dancehall artist Patra.

She runs a jerk spot in Stony Hill. Went there and the food was scrumptious. She even gave us free soup for waiting for long which wasn't her fault as one had to preorder. We just turned up. She came across as a nice cool person, took pics with us and revealed she's looking to get back into music. Wish her nothing but the best.

Wrong. Lady Saw also came out in the late 80`s. Patra started in the late 80`s as well but wasn`t really known until 1993 until her first album dropped. Lady Saw was hot instantly when her first album dropped in 1994. Saw brought women`s DeeJay-ing on the map. Patra was the first to try to crossover and add rap with Reggae though.

So many artist you share about I don't remember or completely never heard of.. thank you for all the research you do. There is such a small amount of people who become( successful) in the music industry.

"Sex symbol and you know that me irie, I'm the Queen..." My favorite Patra song is In the Mood. Iconic.

I was her body guard when Patra, Shabba and Born Jamericans played in Peoria to start the concert tour. Patra and the background dancers we're so fit, they could play ping pong with their stomachs!! I fell in love with the guitar player named Colin White! They were awesome. Memories 💖💖💖

Glad to see Patra seems to be doing well. At this point, she really doesn’t need to make any new music because I think it would tarnish her legacy. Artists need to realize when their time in the spotlight is up. If she wants to do a few gigs here and there then that makes more sense. Not sure many people are eagerly awaiting a new Patra album 🤷🏾♂️

@@sw9113 thanks. I’m puzzled about what I said that makes me “a jerk.” She’s a dancehall artist and dancehall caters to a younger audience. It therefore follows that 20-30 year olds, the major demographic for this genre, are probably not going to be interested in a 50 year old woman releasing and performing new music. They want people who are relevant to them. Not someone who had music out before they were born. No one likes to admit it, but there’s a season for everything. Most runway models careers end by 30, with a couple exceptions. No one is going to cast Betty White as a love interest in a romance movie. There’s a reason record companies, movie studios, advertisers, etc are focused on age demographics. That’s who moves their product. The music industry is a BUSINESS first. You can disagree all you want, but it’s a fact and I didn’t make the rules. #okbye

I’m a person who was a fan and I’m eagerly awaiting a new album. As you aren’t God you are in NO position to limit anyone’s potential, growth, or productivity. The comment was mean and yes making it makes you a jerk.

@@marymiller6188 I see we live in an era where people can’t express opinions people disagree with anymore. Sweetie, you’re also in no position to limit anyone’s growth, potential, or productivity either. If people are like you are too fragile to to grasp reality, then you need to stay in your bunker with your blinders on. I’m sure you noticed that the person who said my comment was “mean,” had no response to my explanation. #girlbye
