TONY REBEL - SWEET JAMAICA (1993)

TONY REBEL - SWEET JAMAICA (1993)
DUBROOM VIDEO REVIEW




WWW, November 2008 - Before he started Rebel Salute, before he became known to the world as another conscious DJ of the time. Tony Rebel was already going strong.

Jamaica, Land of Food and Water. That name was given to the Island by the original inhabitants, before Christopher Columbus and his gang of vampires turned it into a big plantation.

Jamaica, also the birth place of Tony Rebel. He grew up feeling what it means to be at the receiving end of Babylon System's ugly shitstem. He saw the dances getting hotter, as cokane and violence flooded the island, and decided to do something about it.

Together with people like Luciano, he was part of what some call the "Rasta Renaissance" in the early nineties. "Sweet Jamaica" was one of the tunes of the day.
