PRINCE JAMMY, A GERMAN DOCUMENTARY

PRINCE JAMMY, A GERMAN DOCUMENTARY
Dubroom (DUB) Reggae Video Review




WWW, April 2008 - Don't understand German? You might just have a little problem there. But then, watching 7 minutes of Jammy's business might in itself be reason enough to check this video out still.

The video itself is a 7 minute clip from a German TV documentary about Reggae. We meet up with King Jammy in Germany, while he tells his story.

We hear about Waterhouse, about King Tubby, about DUB. We move forward in time and obviously pay attention to the Jammy's mighty Sleng-Teng revolution that introduced digital technology to the Jamaican dancehall.

The German audience is introduced to the meaning of the word "Punany" ("No, it's nothing political"), told that Jammy's oldest son is married to Lady Saw, and much more.

Don't understand German?

Hmmm...
