and that's what life is all about. I can see
you've already figured it out, and listening to your music,
I can hear you figured it out as well.
Speaker 8 (04:18):
So tell me you've been doing this for a while, right.
You grew up in a musical family.
Speaker 10 (04:25):
You have a very very famous uncle, Owen Drettie Reed,
who used to play with Bob Marley and Dennis Brown.
What kind of influence did they have on your musical
journey and reggae.
Speaker 9 (04:39):
Well, honestly, it's like always my other love that Jenny
showed me as alic.
Speaker 11 (04:48):
I am so glad and tanngful that we are family.
Speaker 9 (04:53):
So I could see that I could oftentimes and the
repeating after love from my uncle, you know. And then
I realized the legacy that Jeddy created as a musician,
you know what I mean. And then start to see
you know, and then for the love of the conscious vibes,
we're Jeddy spread and then I was kind of trapped
(05:14):
in that environment.
Speaker 11 (05:16):
You know, we're conscious music.
Speaker 9 (05:18):
Dennis Bron Bob Marley, you know, Cis Lakal and them
Virgin you know, followed in and then I started to
feel that connection. So it's it's just it's just the
love of the music and you know, the in depth
that we feel. So we always try to do the music.
It doesn't matter how long you know people are hearing,
(05:40):
but we still try get the craft together. So we're
getting there already. Man, Hey, it got You've been working
with this for a while. You started around two years old.
Speaker 10 (05:53):
I mean, come on, what was it about reggae, specifically
roots reggae that gave you such peace and contitment as child?
Speaker 9 (06:02):
So you know when the music started playing, even the
smilest a baby, it's on the beat. God, that's Reggae's
it's a really Reggae music is a feelings.
Speaker 8 (06:14):
It is a certain feeling.
Speaker 9 (06:16):
So I could feel the reading from attend that age
where I was like, you know, bounce into the beat,
and you know, as I lived to.
Speaker 8 (06:23):
You, it was like, yo, demanded you know what I mean?
Speaker 11 (06:27):
So that's that's the first the feeling.
Speaker 9 (06:31):
And then as a girl and you know, life experience,
they start with words to get up, you start try
fit find my song, you know.
Speaker 11 (06:41):
So over the years the thing come together.
Speaker 8 (06:43):
So we give us already.
Speaker 10 (06:46):
Man, So from the very first song you wrote, you
knew your calling was in roots reggae. Can you tell
us more about that moment and of realization and what
inspired you to stay true to the genre rather than
vent during it to like the mainstream or like the
bad boy music, dance all or anything else.
Speaker 9 (07:03):
All right, So the thing about me and the music
is I like when everybody can listen to my music,
you know what I mean? So I would want my
music to be played, and you're like, no, I don't
want my children or my child to be able to listen.
I want everybody here because the thing about this music,
this music is is what I feel, what I see
(07:27):
I sing about.
Speaker 11 (07:27):
Reggae music is my life.
Speaker 9 (07:29):
Reggae music is the only gain to it for I
me to express myself by being creative listening to the rhythm.
You know, even if no one reading is our own,
we're still making music because we are a natural reading,
you know what I mean. So it's like, which is
why I still positive? I'm gonna try to faith.
Speaker 8 (07:48):
Man, And you're right, it is always hope.
Speaker 10 (07:51):
And that's one thing a lot of people have lost
sight of, especially with all these wars and everything else
that's going on in the world right now.
Speaker 8 (07:59):
Why is it that you feel like it is very
very pertinent.
Speaker 10 (08:03):
For reggae artists, especially reggae artists, to keep that message
of positivity going even with all this negativity going.
Speaker 8 (08:10):
On in the world.
Speaker 9 (08:14):
Yeah, because as an artist, you have to realize you're calling.
You could have been called everywhere, even though it's in
us to do a different kind of vibe. Because even
though I missed me at Clever Roots, I'm missing roots music.
Still dance on music. So if I hear a dance
alreadym that I like it, I will sing on it,
and I will try to sing something that nice, not
(08:35):
too you know, explitive are you know, we don't even
want to that music can't be nice, you know, certain violent,
you know what I mean, It's just you have to
all I meant.
Speaker 11 (08:49):
This music, you know, in the mind and then your
manifested fun record.
Speaker 8 (08:53):
So okay, it's that feel there.
Speaker 10 (08:57):
And there's a lot of a lot of artists in
the world, it doesn't even matter what genre. It seems
like a lot of them actually has lost sight of that.
But you have actually been able to work with some
fantastic international artists that has not had lost sight of
all that. Excuse me in two Yeah, you've been working
with these arts is twenty ten. Can you share some
(09:19):
highlights from producing the Familiar Groups Rhythm album and how
that collaboration is influence your musical style.
Speaker 9 (09:26):
Yeah, because it's like this, what if I the music
is our family, you know, the music we connect all
of us connected together as artists. It doesn't matter where
you're from in the world. So the way I love music,
I always see other people you know, giant and along
with being you know or willing to do it, you know,
(09:50):
because we are struggling every in every direction being so
sometimes we as an art is, we don't even know
which one of the sound the royal accept I love
so me would me personally would love to know that
I give a bridging that strength that they need even
(10:12):
to produce a record with didn't so may I always
try to say, yo, they I go put all alreadim
you know what I mean. So still I learned to
today because the music industry is kind of very tricky
and easy, you know, especially in Jamaica here where people
only see those who establish they don't They're probably think
the music stopped, no, but it doesn't stop.
Speaker 8 (10:34):
There's a lot of great youth that need exposure in Jamaica.
Speaker 9 (10:38):
So that is why I try to produce like the
familiar who's ready you know me and my abridging them
right and and like you know, determine a little eero
piece and you know a couple of bridging where you
know they think I grew a said speed and you
know I improved myself.
Speaker 10 (10:55):
Yes, sir, definitely, definitely, And that's exactly where I feel
like we have gotten away from this. The message is
like the further into the generations we go, the message
gets a little bit more and more diluted.
Speaker 8 (11:10):
But Roots is never is always going to be.
Speaker 10 (11:12):
It's concrete, it's solid, it won't go anywhere anytime soon.
So with that being said, and your faith based and
your music is known for its faith based message of
one this love and universal consciousness, like how do you
balance that spirituality? But the challenges of the music industry today, Well,
(11:33):
all my lines.
Speaker 11 (11:34):
Not is by knowing that there's a pist for my music.
Speaker 9 (11:37):
So even if many of the mean stream now there's
a lot rid, just know it's it's still there good music.
Speaker 11 (11:44):
So whenever by the time Clever Roots and Kyle and
Cliver Roots.
Speaker 9 (11:47):
Time to do the thing Mine said, positive musical work
by nobody.
Speaker 11 (11:53):
Years so we could have come this far.
Speaker 9 (11:56):
I don't have something good that I've been working on
over the years, because still no, no, no, live the
dream I Olivia so still was when that time come
when just said, yeah, Clever Woods is time for you know.
Speaker 11 (12:13):
That is why I'm glad for the platform like yours
to make people who like yeah you like me?
Speaker 9 (12:17):
They are sad speed where would want the opportunity to
come and you know, proform my music and build my
fan base and things like that. So with this expectations,
but I just tried to keep it really over the
years Middle Striphon was and with music no matter when
there's always music.
Speaker 10 (12:37):
Yes, you're right about that. And with your music because
I know you mentor youth, right, how does your music
translate to the youth that you meant to?
Speaker 6 (12:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (12:48):
Well even you them and my little family then me
and them know a lot the little videos from time
to time where they know the music. My kids them
are always singing my music and stuff and that. So
whenever they start to sing my music, you know, I
know it was a hitting bad.
Speaker 11 (13:08):
May I teach them?
Speaker 8 (13:09):
You know what I mean? So it's good.
Speaker 11 (13:11):
The only thing the music, you know, is the publicity.
Speaker 9 (13:13):
It's for the music to be a narrator, and you
know the music videos are the necessary you know, works
need to put in for the music to get there.
I'm an independent artist, you know what I mean. I
don't really have anybody first, say, producing an album with
Clef Arroos. I just try to vibe along with people.
(13:33):
So I'm open to work with people who want to
put my music where it truillly be and the world
to know me and I can you know, build that
fan base and get a lot of work out there,
you know, because now is the time.
Speaker 11 (13:48):
So that's the that's the main focus.
Speaker 10 (13:50):
Okay, all right, So reggae is often linked to social
justice and cultural pride. How does your faith as a
roster man and ruse the things you chose to tackle
in your music?
Speaker 8 (14:04):
All right?
Speaker 9 (14:05):
So, because I'm a family man, I you know, I
have to work to take care of my family. So
I cut my jadlocks a few years ago. But I'm
a rasted man because it's from within. Oh see what
I'm saying. So the poet is in iron I saying,
so whatever the people see, it don't determine, you know,
(14:28):
says So it's from within. So I and I know
said that consciousness keep it from within coming out saying,
so when do we just try and say yeah, no
matter what me I do, may never try to lose myself.
You know, we just trying to stay a focused an
(14:50):
instruction and a lot of different things. But I try
my best, fait, don't take too much at one time.
I try to balance everything so everything can you know,
come true. So we're just not trying to feel it, right, bro?
Speaker 8 (15:02):
You know right?
Speaker 11 (15:04):
You know they're not trying to mystic teaches you to
got hurt? Is the the universe is it's.
Speaker 8 (15:09):
Teacher, you know what I mean? Right?
Speaker 10 (15:13):
And with the most how already being your master and
the you're staying independent, you don't have to worry about, uh,
signing a contract how.
Speaker 8 (15:23):
To take away your authenticity?
Speaker 10 (15:26):
And you know what the Bible say about trying to
followed or trying to serve two masters. You can't serve
two masters. So do you think you staying independent is
keeping your faith intact as well?
Speaker 9 (15:40):
Well, it's not not that I really wanted to stay independent, because,
as I said, being an artist is really the nice
thing about music is to sing a different really it's
different feet and work with different people.
Speaker 11 (15:55):
So by the end of the day, see what different
vibes bring you.
Speaker 9 (15:58):
So I wouldn't want to just sing for myself and
I try to produce myself, but sometimes the struggles and
the music is so odd.
Speaker 11 (16:05):
You can't sit down and watch everything passing by. You
have to child, you know what I mean.
Speaker 9 (16:10):
So that is why I have my local production and
but more even the some that I send you, it's
other people produce them. I have a virgin recall is
Drammawi will work a lot that time, you know, will
send my need from them. We just make it in
mixing master in and I is project production and things.
So I'm still working with people, you know what I mean.
(16:31):
And as I said, I'm open to work with anybody
who understand me and what I really want to bring
me fool music away.
Speaker 8 (16:40):
All right? Man?
Speaker 10 (16:41):
You say you really you're looking to collaborate with many
artists with genres. Are you looking to specific specifically cross
over a collaborate with artists? And do you think you
can see yourself doing guinea hip hop, rap rock or country.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
Well play and the.
Speaker 9 (17:02):
RMB, you know, right, So good to me, Rasta, you
know what I mean, Just play some music.
Speaker 8 (17:10):
I will listen.
Speaker 11 (17:12):
I will know how to follow anything.
Speaker 10 (17:15):
Yeah, that's the answer from a true artist right now, music, Yes,
tell me about your technique. You go into the studio,
you hear the music, how do you what? What does
the music guide your mind? Or did you allow the
mind to mold the music?
Speaker 9 (17:37):
All right, so you go both to you know, it
goes both to you. Sometime, YEA make a song and
it comes so easy, like now, I know, it's just there.
Speaker 8 (17:45):
You know, you just take it on.
Speaker 9 (17:48):
And the next time you're making a song and you
realize this song has such a message here you can't
even rush it, you know what I mean? And then
you have But next time went from from hear the beat,
this son just fooled. So we make something different different.
Sometimes when I listen to already are a beat, you know,
(18:09):
you call it and I mean, the song just come.
And the next time you we just hear read yo
this hour me I hear you know what I mean. Yeah,
it's just magical. It's just magical. You know, it's just
different different ways, you know, different different time, different vibes.
Sometime you're in sometimes you're in a lot of nice.
(18:30):
But while you're in that nice, here's a music coming,
you know what I mean. But I don't need to
just step out of the nice and just listen to
it and you're trying to hear it, and then all
I have to do is just you know, guys, just
like I'm just a listener. You know, Yes, that's real.
Speaker 8 (18:48):
I hear that. I can I can relate and I
confirm already.

Speaker 9 (19:21):
They're they are the few chat and I mean, if
we don't set it for them, then can't just get

Speaker 11 (20:06):
But we try to you know, we don't sit down
let things just.
Speaker 8 (20:10):
Pass us by.
Speaker 9 (20:10):
We try to fit in and try to help ourself
because it's the only way, you know what I mean,
what do I.
Speaker 11 (20:18):
The music.
Speaker 9 (20:18):
That's what I've been doing over the year is trying
to stay up, try to you know, be able to
build myself a woman. You know, as I said, it's
just the journey. So I'm active on the stage per se,
you know, because you have to live and thing. Sometimes
sometimes the money don't come out of the music if
you're not that established artists, you know what I mean.
Speaker 8 (20:39):
So what you what I do now?
Speaker 9 (20:41):
I just try to do things on the side to
keep myself surviving. But yeah, I'm ready for sure. You know,
it's been a while I haven't sing for the people.
And you know, if you look at my youth two
sometimes somebody, you know, it was nice, you know, the was.
Speaker 11 (21:00):
Receiving the vice. It's just that we need more, you know,
for the best. We're working to sing for the world.
Speaker 8 (21:08):
I hear you on that beast.
Speaker 11 (21:13):
Give you.
Speaker 10 (21:19):
Definitely definitely Now, actually, I actually want to ask you
about your job. You say you actually tour said to us,
the tourists and stuff that come from out of the
country and they come to your beautiful country and they
get to you put the whole your bang on them.
You let them know all about uh, your home country,
and you know, let them know history, the sight seeing
(21:39):
all of that correct.
Speaker 8 (21:45):
Where they want to go. How does that how does
that interaction with the tourists.
Speaker 10 (21:52):
Like, does that give you some kind of influence or
some kind of something you can draw from whenever you
do go write your music, you know you pay good.
Speaker 9 (22:02):
I've learned a lot. I've learned a lot. I've learned
a lot. I've learned a lot since I've been busy
doing it. What it does let you understand culture. Over
the years, you meet different people from different parts.
Speaker 8 (22:15):
Of the world, you know what I mean.
Speaker 9 (22:17):
So at least now you see so you could know
what to expect, what kind of vibe with It's like
it's that everybody know that I'm an artist.
Speaker 11 (22:28):
Sometimes it's different vibe. People are in a different mood.
Speaker 8 (22:32):
So you know what I mean.
Speaker 11 (22:32):
You have to try to understand the people, give the
people what they want.
Speaker 9 (22:36):
If they are kind of some people know that, you say,
all right, these people are you just introduce yourself to
them and even make it more nice, you know what
I mean.
Speaker 11 (22:44):
So I've done that a few times along that line
of work.
Speaker 8 (22:48):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 9 (22:48):
But that's just one part of what I do, you know.
But the other part is Climoroo's the artist. That's that's
the real You want to do more to use the
music that of the world, and you know, do more to.
Speaker 8 (23:03):
Eel the people, you know what I mean.
Speaker 9 (23:05):
Because a lot of things going on in the world
right now where I can't stop it, but I can
only bring a certain awareness to people and then say, yeah,
you know, things could be better, our things could be worse,
you know. So in the meantime, we have to give
tanks because we are here, and you know what I mean,
it's all about giving tanks and try to be a
(23:26):
good brother. You can't be bad, you can't, you know
what I mean. It's too weird. It's too weir about it.
You have to be a good man, you know what
I mean. You can't be a good and a bad man,
even though we have mixed energy, but people have to
be one, you know, one that really.
Speaker 8 (23:42):
Work for you, you know what I mean.
Speaker 9 (23:44):
So we try to portray a positive but we don't
show people love whenever we see them.
Speaker 11 (23:48):
It doesn't matter. We share with anybody once we have money,
people beg with stuff in.
Speaker 9 (23:52):
The road, share with them because God and still said,
if your better come to you and ask you for something,
don't don't tell him tomorrow.
Speaker 11 (24:01):
Do you know why they can't?
Speaker 8 (24:04):
Right?
Speaker 11 (24:05):
So we try to listen to the profits something and
you don't do the right thing.
Speaker 8 (24:10):
Man, that's judge. I couldn't have said it no better
than that.
Speaker 10 (24:14):
Speaking of awareness, uh, the Bob Marley Beach predicament has
become a focal point of land rights discussions in Jamaica.
Speaker 8 (24:22):
How do you feel about what's happening at Bob Marley Beach?
Speaker 10 (24:25):
And do you believe reggae artists have a responsibility to
raise awareness about issues just like this?
Speaker 9 (24:32):
Yeah? So what I think what I have understand, you know,
my brother, is that you see anything f do with
bab Mary the King.
Speaker 11 (24:40):
People wanted to go go blue it, commercialize it, anything
like that.
Speaker 9 (24:45):
So anyway, if I try to people are gonna gonna
you know, because people want to get the greatness and
the grit five from the great money. So you know,
by the time governmentaleries that implement them them meta and
things like that.
Speaker 11 (25:01):
But we can't stop it. The only thing what I
love of the people benefit from it.
Speaker 9 (25:06):
So everybody can live in one perfect entity uniting together
and everybody are so five, you know, you know what
I mean, even if me seven, I agree for them
take the beach, if then I got tech the beach
and I got tech the beach, brother, because you're doing
set the government and then set them have everything. It's
that the people are nothing but for me as a
(25:28):
simple in command. We just want them to say, if
you not got at the beach from the people, everybody
o the who want to be a part of that
thing that bab male is said, just make them be
a benefit. That's make them be a part of it,
you know, and make everybody live. That's the most I
can say about that.
Speaker 10 (25:47):
I can feel you on that. That's that's a good
answer to that. You know, if everybody does a benefit,
what makes it public? You know there's prior a tourism
once a year. The matter about you know, say, I
take them, want to take it to make it.
Speaker 9 (26:02):
We have tours, but as I said, we the local
people is a part of the tourism too, because we
are we played the musica, We are the party.
Speaker 11 (26:11):
So tourist just come to Jamaica to be in a resort.
Speaker 9 (26:15):
They're being in the resort knowing that okay, security first,
but by the end of the day they want to
be amongst the locals because we had a vibe. Are
we but a local man, like a local restamant like
myself and looking for people?
Speaker 4 (26:30):
Love it.
Speaker 9 (26:31):
So look, everybody is great GrITT in Jamaica. Jamaica is
a beautiful island. I love Jammyica, you know what I mean.
But it must stop here. So because the world, like
we had planned Jammia, the world always have the ipan
Jammya the role that we had plant Jammya.
Speaker 11 (26:45):
So anything Jammy said, the world believe it, you know.
Speaker 9 (26:52):
What I mean. So Jammy Cay is like a little eyemill.
We're everybody looking and looking for us. So one thing
in one for the people that Jammy is love a stuff.
When we start love of ourselves, it gona bring with
more respect, you know, Yes, other people and you can.
Speaker 11 (27:13):
Yeah, Ma'm just one of the people. And all right,
Jamaica is great.
Speaker 9 (27:17):
A lot of potential in Jamic A lot a great
you like, a great artists, a lot that great athletes, athletes,
a lot a great musician. You know what we need
in Jamaica now is them to be grounded again. Stop
coming with yourself, start being what you can't be. You
know what I mean, because even the music industry today,
a lot of my music is a lot of ignoring
(27:38):
Jamia because when I sing certain music, yes, you know
what I mean, but my music still have space. I'm
asking about killing people. We're not killing nobody in the music.
We're not killing that music. We're building their music.
Speaker 8 (27:54):
Mm hmm. That's real.
Speaker 9 (27:57):
A lot of the music were played today's all about
violence and you know, sex, drink liquor and all and
them kind of thing, which you know, it's more I rightness,
it's kind of fading. And then what that does know
that that that MC realized that even even the talents
(28:21):
that I get exposed and then they really talent. So
the real talent targets starting get starting, not because different vibes.
People can bring themselves to the forefront because probably them
have money, probably them, you know what I mean, everybody
on them don't know how to get it. But so
many time they really the really people them now get
(28:42):
to where could that make a big difference?
Speaker 11 (28:45):
Said speed, you know, and and and lift the music
on the.
Speaker 9 (28:50):
Level where the world expected you know what I expectations
whom you can artists them the works, right, you know.
Speaker 11 (29:00):
Yeah, it's like, let me forget sa reggae is this
is this team where it's free.
Speaker 8 (29:13):
Yeah, and I hear that you.
Speaker 11 (29:17):
Give Emergin like you you know, give times your platform
soul side boss.
Speaker 8 (29:25):
Yes, appreciate the love, appreciate.
Speaker 10 (29:27):
The love and the music phenomenal. That's why I definitely
had to make sure we got your own here. We
was jamming that all weekend at both the parties we
had this weekend. So definitely got to say your props
on that. Definitely got to sing your props.
Speaker 8 (29:42):
Yes.
Speaker 10 (29:43):
All right, but before we end it, I do have
one more question that I want to ask you now,
as someone who stays true to the roots of reggae,
how do you see the future of roots reggae evolving,
especially in today's digital and fast paced world.
Speaker 9 (30:00):
All right, so reggae can't die. Reggae is reggae god music.
Reggae music can't die, so there's always.
Speaker 8 (30:10):
Gonna be a space.
Speaker 11 (30:14):
For reggae music. But it's like a lot of people
have the reggae music no, and we have that.
Speaker 9 (30:23):
We have so many platforms and all that where people
can't get exposed by doing simple stuff and then it
just blow and get big. So Stella said, ado is
remember what reggae music is and what reggae music means.
So we can always be great and maintain the greatness
(30:45):
by making good music that motivates and elevate. You know
what I mean, love unity, because by the end of
the day, that's what my need, my need, peace of mind,
love to get on this.
Speaker 11 (31:01):
You know, those things are the greatest thing. But everything
else it's temporary. Love. Love should be permanent, something that
you know, everybody know what it means.
Speaker 8 (31:12):
You know what, I don't know. The world is crazy,
but I have to just know that and I represent
love and for love.
Speaker 9 (31:22):
So regga music will armist be something that people thirsty
and waiting to hear good regga music to revive themselves.
So once he idle with music, just keep doing it.
I'm really good. Definitely, definitely you You hit it right
on the money. Reggae ain't going nowhere, it ain't dying,
(31:44):
it ain't gonna move away.
Speaker 10 (31:46):
It's gonna be here to stay. The music is the
king of music exactly. If anybody know what the they
they know that's the music Jesus was right than Donkey and.
Speaker 11 (31:59):
Music from creation.
Speaker 9 (32:02):
Yes, I deserve because bab bab bab Maley go back

You grew up in a musical family.
Speaker 10 (04:25):
You have a very very famous uncle, Owen Drettie Reed,
who used to play with Bob Marley and Dennis Brown.
What kind of influence did they have on your musical
journey and reggae.
Speaker 9 (04:39):
Well, honestly, it's like always my other love that Jenny
showed me as alic.
Speaker 11 (04:48):
I am so glad and tanngful that we are family.
Speaker 9 (04:53):
So I could see that I could oftentimes and the
repeating after love from my uncle, you know. And then
I realized the legacy that Jeddy created as a musician,
you know what I mean. And then start to see
you know, and then for the love of the conscious vibes,
we're Jeddy spread and then I was kind of trapped
(05:14):
in that environment.
Speaker 11 (05:16):
You know, we're conscious music.
Speaker 9 (05:18):
Dennis Bron Bob Marley, you know, Cis Lakal and them
Virgin you know, followed in and then I started to
feel that connection. So it's it's just it's just the
love of the music and you know, the in depth
that we feel. So we always try to do the music.
It doesn't matter how long you know people are hearing,
(05:40):
but we still try get the craft together. So we're
getting there already. Man, Hey, it got You've been working
with this for a while. You started around two years old.
Speaker 10 (05:53):
I mean, come on, what was it about reggae, specifically
roots reggae that gave you such peace and contitment as child?
Speaker 9 (06:02):
So you know when the music started playing, even the
smilest a baby, it's on the beat. God, that's Reggae's
it's a really Reggae music is a feelings.
Speaker 8 (06:14):
It is a certain feeling.
Speaker 9 (06:16):
So I could feel the reading from attend that age
where I was like, you know, bounce into the beat,
and you know, as I lived to.
Speaker 8 (06:23):
You, it was like, yo, demanded you know what I mean?
Speaker 11 (06:27):
So that's that's the first the feeling.
Speaker 9 (06:31):
And then as a girl and you know, life experience,
they start with words to get up, you start try
fit find my song, you know.
Speaker 11 (06:41):
So over the years the thing come together.
Speaker 8 (06:43):
So we give us already.
Speaker 10 (06:46):
Man, So from the very first song you wrote, you
knew your calling was in roots reggae. Can you tell
us more about that moment and of realization and what
inspired you to stay true to the genre rather than
vent during it to like the mainstream or like the
bad boy music, dance all or anything else.
Speaker 9 (07:03):
All right, So the thing about me and the music
is I like when everybody can listen to my music,
you know what I mean? So I would want my
music to be played, and you're like, no, I don't
want my children or my child to be able to listen.
I want everybody here because the thing about this music,
this music is is what I feel, what I see
(07:27):
I sing about.
Speaker 11 (07:27):
Reggae music is my life.
Speaker 9 (07:29):
Reggae music is the only gain to it for I
me to express myself by being creative listening to the rhythm.
You know, even if no one reading is our own,
we're still making music because we are a natural reading,
you know what I mean. So it's like, which is
why I still positive? I'm gonna try to faith.
Speaker 8 (07:48):
Man, And you're right, it is always hope.
Speaker 10 (07:51):
And that's one thing a lot of people have lost
sight of, especially with all these wars and everything else
that's going on in the world right now.
Speaker 8 (07:59):
Why is it that you feel like it is very
very pertinent.
Speaker 10 (08:03):
For reggae artists, especially reggae artists, to keep that message
of positivity going even with all this negativity going.
Speaker 8 (08:10):
On in the world.
Speaker 9 (08:14):
Yeah, because as an artist, you have to realize you're calling.
You could have been called everywhere, even though it's in
us to do a different kind of vibe. Because even
though I missed me at Clever Roots, I'm missing roots music.
Still dance on music. So if I hear a dance
alreadym that I like it, I will sing on it,
and I will try to sing something that nice, not
(08:35):
too you know, explitive are you know, we don't even
want to that music can't be nice, you know, certain violent,
you know what I mean, It's just you have to
all I meant.
Speaker 11 (08:49):
This music, you know, in the mind and then your
manifested fun record.
Speaker 8 (08:53):
So okay, it's that feel there.
Speaker 10 (08:57):
And there's a lot of a lot of artists in
the world, it doesn't even matter what genre. It seems
like a lot of them actually has lost sight of that.
But you have actually been able to work with some
fantastic international artists that has not had lost sight of
all that. Excuse me in two Yeah, you've been working
with these arts is twenty ten. Can you share some
(09:19):
highlights from producing the Familiar Groups Rhythm album and how
that collaboration is influence your musical style.
Speaker 9 (09:26):
Yeah, because it's like this, what if I the music
is our family, you know, the music we connect all
of us connected together as artists. It doesn't matter where
you're from in the world. So the way I love music,
I always see other people you know, giant and along
with being you know or willing to do it, you know,
(09:50):
because we are struggling every in every direction being so
sometimes we as an art is, we don't even know
which one of the sound the royal accept I love
so me would me personally would love to know that
I give a bridging that strength that they need even
(10:12):
to produce a record with didn't so may I always
try to say, yo, they I go put all alreadim
you know what I mean. So still I learned to
today because the music industry is kind of very tricky
and easy, you know, especially in Jamaica here where people
only see those who establish they don't They're probably think
the music stopped, no, but it doesn't stop.
Speaker 8 (10:34):
There's a lot of great youth that need exposure in Jamaica.
Speaker 9 (10:38):
So that is why I try to produce like the
familiar who's ready you know me and my abridging them
right and and like you know, determine a little eero
piece and you know a couple of bridging where you
know they think I grew a said speed and you
know I improved myself.
Speaker 10 (10:55):
Yes, sir, definitely, definitely, And that's exactly where I feel
like we have gotten away from this. The message is
like the further into the generations we go, the message
gets a little bit more and more diluted.
Speaker 8 (11:10):
But Roots is never is always going to be.
Speaker 10 (11:12):
It's concrete, it's solid, it won't go anywhere anytime soon.
So with that being said, and your faith based and
your music is known for its faith based message of
one this love and universal consciousness, like how do you
balance that spirituality? But the challenges of the music industry today, Well,
(11:33):
all my lines.
Speaker 11 (11:34):
Not is by knowing that there's a pist for my music.
Speaker 9 (11:37):
So even if many of the mean stream now there's
a lot rid, just know it's it's still there good music.
Speaker 11 (11:44):
So whenever by the time Clever Roots and Kyle and
Cliver Roots.
Speaker 9 (11:47):
Time to do the thing Mine said, positive musical work
by nobody.
Speaker 11 (11:53):
Years so we could have come this far.
Speaker 9 (11:56):
I don't have something good that I've been working on
over the years, because still no, no, no, live the
dream I Olivia so still was when that time come
when just said, yeah, Clever Woods is time for you know.
Speaker 11 (12:13):
That is why I'm glad for the platform like yours
to make people who like yeah you like me?
Speaker 9 (12:17):
They are sad speed where would want the opportunity to
come and you know, proform my music and build my
fan base and things like that. So with this expectations,
but I just tried to keep it really over the
years Middle Striphon was and with music no matter when
there's always music.
Speaker 10 (12:37):
Yes, you're right about that. And with your music because
I know you mentor youth, right, how does your music
translate to the youth that you meant to?
Speaker 6 (12:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (12:48):
Well even you them and my little family then me
and them know a lot the little videos from time
to time where they know the music. My kids them
are always singing my music and stuff and that. So
whenever they start to sing my music, you know, I
know it was a hitting bad.
Speaker 11 (13:08):
May I teach them?
Speaker 8 (13:09):
You know what I mean? So it's good.
Speaker 11 (13:11):
The only thing the music, you know, is the publicity.
Speaker 9 (13:13):
It's for the music to be a narrator, and you
know the music videos are the necessary you know, works
need to put in for the music to get there.
I'm an independent artist, you know what I mean. I
don't really have anybody first, say, producing an album with
Clef Arroos. I just try to vibe along with people.
(13:33):
So I'm open to work with people who want to
put my music where it truillly be and the world
to know me and I can you know, build that
fan base and get a lot of work out there,
you know, because now is the time.
Speaker 11 (13:48):
So that's the that's the main focus.
Speaker 10 (13:50):
Okay, all right, So reggae is often linked to social
justice and cultural pride. How does your faith as a
roster man and ruse the things you chose to tackle
in your music?
Speaker 8 (14:04):
All right?
Speaker 9 (14:05):
So, because I'm a family man, I you know, I
have to work to take care of my family. So
I cut my jadlocks a few years ago. But I'm
a rasted man because it's from within. Oh see what
I'm saying. So the poet is in iron I saying,
so whatever the people see, it don't determine, you know,
(14:28):
says So it's from within. So I and I know
said that consciousness keep it from within coming out saying,
so when do we just try and say yeah, no
matter what me I do, may never try to lose myself.
You know, we just trying to stay a focused an
(14:50):
instruction and a lot of different things. But I try
my best, fait, don't take too much at one time.
I try to balance everything so everything can you know,
come true. So we're just not trying to feel it, right, bro?
Speaker 8 (15:02):
You know right?
Speaker 11 (15:04):
You know they're not trying to mystic teaches you to
got hurt? Is the the universe is it's.
Speaker 8 (15:09):
Teacher, you know what I mean? Right?
Speaker 10 (15:13):
And with the most how already being your master and
the you're staying independent, you don't have to worry about, uh,
signing a contract how.
Speaker 8 (15:23):
To take away your authenticity?
Speaker 10 (15:26):
And you know what the Bible say about trying to
followed or trying to serve two masters. You can't serve
two masters. So do you think you staying independent is
keeping your faith intact as well?
Speaker 9 (15:40):
Well, it's not not that I really wanted to stay independent, because,
as I said, being an artist is really the nice
thing about music is to sing a different really it's
different feet and work with different people.
Speaker 11 (15:55):
So by the end of the day, see what different
vibes bring you.
Speaker 9 (15:58):
So I wouldn't want to just sing for myself and
I try to produce myself, but sometimes the struggles and
the music is so odd.
Speaker 11 (16:05):
You can't sit down and watch everything passing by. You
have to child, you know what I mean.
Speaker 9 (16:10):
So that is why I have my local production and
but more even the some that I send you, it's
other people produce them. I have a virgin recall is
Drammawi will work a lot that time, you know, will
send my need from them. We just make it in
mixing master in and I is project production and things.
So I'm still working with people, you know what I mean.
(16:31):
And as I said, I'm open to work with anybody
who understand me and what I really want to bring
me fool music away.
Speaker 8 (16:40):
All right? Man?
Speaker 10 (16:41):
You say you really you're looking to collaborate with many
artists with genres. Are you looking to specific specifically cross
over a collaborate with artists? And do you think you
can see yourself doing guinea hip hop, rap rock or country.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
Well play and the.
Speaker 9 (17:02):
RMB, you know, right, So good to me, Rasta, you
know what I mean, Just play some music.
Speaker 8 (17:10):
I will listen.
Speaker 11 (17:12):
I will know how to follow anything.
Speaker 10 (17:15):
Yeah, that's the answer from a true artist right now, music, Yes,
tell me about your technique. You go into the studio,
you hear the music, how do you what? What does
the music guide your mind? Or did you allow the
mind to mold the music?
Speaker 9 (17:37):
All right, so you go both to you know, it
goes both to you. Sometime, YEA make a song and
it comes so easy, like now, I know, it's just there.
Speaker 8 (17:45):
You know, you just take it on.
Speaker 9 (17:48):
And the next time you're making a song and you
realize this song has such a message here you can't
even rush it, you know what I mean? And then
you have But next time went from from hear the beat,
this son just fooled. So we make something different different.
Sometimes when I listen to already are a beat, you know,
(18:09):
you call it and I mean, the song just come.
And the next time you we just hear read yo
this hour me I hear you know what I mean. Yeah,
it's just magical. It's just magical. You know, it's just
different different ways, you know, different different time, different vibes.
Sometime you're in sometimes you're in a lot of nice.
(18:30):
But while you're in that nice, here's a music coming,
you know what I mean. But I don't need to
just step out of the nice and just listen to
it and you're trying to hear it, and then all
I have to do is just you know, guys, just
like I'm just a listener. You know, Yes, that's real.
Speaker 8 (18:48):
I hear that. I can I can relate and I
confirm already.
Speaker 10 (18:54):
So when you with you've I'm pretty sure you've done
shows or events or put on some kind of performance
and some kind of correct.
Speaker 11 (19:05):
Yeah, it's been a while. I haven't done any show.
Speaker 9 (19:07):
Is still you know, most of the time for a
few years now, it's like it's just work, trying to
build up a whole over for the family and making
sure they use them.
Speaker 11 (19:16):
Can you know, relax themselves because you know then.
Speaker 9 (19:21):
They're they are the few chat and I mean, if
we don't set it for them, then can't just get
a start. So we've been doing the work, you know,
because as I said, otherwise show me doing the music.
Speaker 8 (19:31):
I do tours in Jamaica. You know, people can book
and would you say they keeps you. Yeah, but I
do tours, tourss.
Speaker 9 (19:44):
An excursion airport for tours, an excursion different thing as a.
Speaker 8 (19:48):
Child and where do you do that? Yeah? I do

Speaker 9 (19:56):
A website, Nice Time Jamiica Tours also, you know, people
can check it out. I'm on the social media platform
TikTok Instagram said speed out of them.
Speaker 11 (20:06):
But we try to you know, we don't sit down
let things just.
Speaker 8 (20:10):
Pass us by.
Speaker 9 (20:10):
We try to fit in and try to help ourself
because it's the only way, you know what I mean,
what do I.
Speaker 11 (20:18):
The music.
Speaker 9 (20:18):
That's what I've been doing over the year is trying
to stay up, try to you know, be able to
build myself a woman. You know, as I said, it's
just the journey. So I'm active on the stage per se,
you know, because you have to live and thing. Sometimes
sometimes the money don't come out of the music if
you're not that established artists, you know what I mean.
Speaker 8 (20:39):
So what you what I do now?
Speaker 9 (20:41):
I just try to do things on the side to
keep myself surviving. But yeah, I'm ready for sure. You know,
it's been a while I haven't sing for the people.
And you know, if you look at my youth two
sometimes somebody, you know, it was nice, you know, the was.
Speaker 11 (21:00):
Receiving the vice. It's just that we need more, you know,
for the best. We're working to sing for the world.
Speaker 8 (21:08):
I hear you on that beast.
Speaker 11 (21:13):
Give you.
Speaker 10 (21:19):
Definitely definitely Now, actually, I actually want to ask you
about your job. You say you actually tour said to us,
the tourists and stuff that come from out of the
country and they come to your beautiful country and they
get to you put the whole your bang on them.
You let them know all about uh, your home country,
and you know, let them know history, the sight seeing
(21:39):
all of that correct.
Speaker 8 (21:45):
Where they want to go. How does that how does
that interaction with the tourists.
Speaker 10 (21:52):
Like, does that give you some kind of influence or
some kind of something you can draw from whenever you
do go write your music, you know you pay good.
Speaker 9 (22:02):
I've learned a lot. I've learned a lot. I've learned
a lot. I've learned a lot since I've been busy
doing it. What it does let you understand culture. Over
the years, you meet different people from different parts.
Speaker 8 (22:15):
Of the world, you know what I mean.
Speaker 9 (22:17):
So at least now you see so you could know
what to expect, what kind of vibe with It's like
it's that everybody know that I'm an artist.
Speaker 11 (22:28):
Sometimes it's different vibe. People are in a different mood.
Speaker 8 (22:32):
So you know what I mean.
Speaker 11 (22:32):
You have to try to understand the people, give the
people what they want.
Speaker 9 (22:36):
If they are kind of some people know that, you say,
all right, these people are you just introduce yourself to
them and even make it more nice, you know what
I mean.
Speaker 11 (22:44):
So I've done that a few times along that line
of work.
Speaker 8 (22:48):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 9 (22:48):
But that's just one part of what I do, you know.
But the other part is Climoroo's the artist. That's that's
the real You want to do more to use the
music that of the world, and you know, do more to.
Speaker 8 (23:03):
Eel the people, you know what I mean.
Speaker 9 (23:05):
Because a lot of things going on in the world
right now where I can't stop it, but I can
only bring a certain awareness to people and then say, yeah,
you know, things could be better, our things could be worse,
you know. So in the meantime, we have to give
tanks because we are here, and you know what I mean,
it's all about giving tanks and try to be a
(23:26):
good brother. You can't be bad, you can't, you know
what I mean. It's too weird. It's too weir about it.
You have to be a good man, you know what
I mean. You can't be a good and a bad man,
even though we have mixed energy, but people have to
be one, you know, one that really.
Speaker 8 (23:42):
Work for you, you know what I mean.
Speaker 9 (23:44):
So we try to portray a positive but we don't
show people love whenever we see them.
Speaker 11 (23:48):
It doesn't matter. We share with anybody once we have money,
people beg with stuff in.
Speaker 9 (23:52):
The road, share with them because God and still said,
if your better come to you and ask you for something,
don't don't tell him tomorrow.
Speaker 11 (24:01):
Do you know why they can't?
Speaker 8 (24:04):
Right?
Speaker 11 (24:05):
So we try to listen to the profits something and
you don't do the right thing.
Speaker 8 (24:10):
Man, that's judge. I couldn't have said it no better
than that.
Speaker 10 (24:14):
Speaking of awareness, uh, the Bob Marley Beach predicament has
become a focal point of land rights discussions in Jamaica.
Speaker 8 (24:22):
How do you feel about what's happening at Bob Marley Beach?
Speaker 10 (24:25):
And do you believe reggae artists have a responsibility to
raise awareness about issues just like this?
Speaker 9 (24:32):
Yeah? So what I think what I have understand, you know,
my brother, is that you see anything f do with
bab Mary the King.
Speaker 11 (24:40):
People wanted to go go blue it, commercialize it, anything
like that.
Speaker 9 (24:45):
So anyway, if I try to people are gonna gonna
you know, because people want to get the greatness and
the grit five from the great money. So you know,
by the time governmentaleries that implement them them meta and
things like that.
Speaker 11 (25:01):
But we can't stop it. The only thing what I
love of the people benefit from it.
Speaker 9 (25:06):
So everybody can live in one perfect entity uniting together
and everybody are so five, you know, you know what
I mean, even if me seven, I agree for them
take the beach, if then I got tech the beach
and I got tech the beach, brother, because you're doing
set the government and then set them have everything. It's
that the people are nothing but for me as a
(25:28):
simple in command. We just want them to say, if
you not got at the beach from the people, everybody
o the who want to be a part of that
thing that bab male is said, just make them be
a benefit. That's make them be a part of it,
you know, and make everybody live. That's the most I
can say about that.
Speaker 10 (25:47):
I can feel you on that. That's that's a good
answer to that. You know, if everybody does a benefit,
what makes it public? You know there's prior a tourism
once a year. The matter about you know, say, I
take them, want to take it to make it.
Speaker 9 (26:02):
We have tours, but as I said, we the local
people is a part of the tourism too, because we
are we played the musica, We are the party.
Speaker 11 (26:11):
So tourist just come to Jamaica to be in a resort.
Speaker 9 (26:15):
They're being in the resort knowing that okay, security first,
but by the end of the day they want to
be amongst the locals because we had a vibe. Are
we but a local man, like a local restamant like
myself and looking for people?
Speaker 4 (26:30):
Love it.
Speaker 9 (26:31):
So look, everybody is great GrITT in Jamaica. Jamaica is
a beautiful island. I love Jammyica, you know what I mean.
But it must stop here. So because the world, like
we had planned Jammia, the world always have the ipan
Jammya the role that we had plant Jammya.
Speaker 11 (26:45):
So anything Jammy said, the world believe it, you know.
Speaker 9 (26:52):
What I mean. So Jammy Cay is like a little eyemill.
We're everybody looking and looking for us. So one thing
in one for the people that Jammy is love a stuff.
When we start love of ourselves, it gona bring with
more respect, you know, Yes, other people and you can.
Speaker 11 (27:13):
Yeah, Ma'm just one of the people. And all right,
Jamaica is great.
Speaker 9 (27:17):
A lot of potential in Jamic A lot a great
you like, a great artists, a lot that great athletes, athletes,
a lot a great musician. You know what we need
in Jamaica now is them to be grounded again. Stop
coming with yourself, start being what you can't be. You
know what I mean, because even the music industry today,
a lot of my music is a lot of ignoring
(27:38):
Jamia because when I sing certain music, yes, you know
what I mean, but my music still have space. I'm
asking about killing people. We're not killing nobody in the music.
We're not killing that music. We're building their music.
Speaker 8 (27:54):
Mm hmm. That's real.
Speaker 9 (27:57):
A lot of the music were played today's all about
violence and you know, sex, drink liquor and all and
them kind of thing, which you know, it's more I rightness,
it's kind of fading. And then what that does know
that that that MC realized that even even the talents
(28:21):
that I get exposed and then they really talent. So
the real talent targets starting get starting, not because different vibes.
People can bring themselves to the forefront because probably them
have money, probably them, you know what I mean, everybody
on them don't know how to get it. But so
many time they really the really people them now get
(28:42):
to where could that make a big difference?
Speaker 11 (28:45):
Said speed, you know, and and and lift the music
on the.
Speaker 9 (28:50):
Level where the world expected you know what I expectations
whom you can artists them the works, right, you know.
Speaker 11 (29:00):
Yeah, it's like, let me forget sa reggae is this
is this team where it's free.
Speaker 8 (29:13):
Yeah, and I hear that you.
Speaker 11 (29:17):
Give Emergin like you you know, give times your platform

one more question that I want to ask you now,
as someone who stays true to the roots of reggae,
how do you see the future of roots reggae evolving,
especially in today's digital and fast paced world.

Speaker 11 (30:14):
For reggae music. But it's like a lot of people
have the reggae music no, and we have that.
Speaker 9 (30:23):
We have so many platforms and all that where people
can't get exposed by doing simple stuff and then it
just blow and get big. So Stella said, ado is
remember what reggae music is and what reggae music means.
So we can always be great and maintain the greatness
(30:45):
by making good music that motivates and elevate. You know
what I mean, love unity, because by the end of
the day, that's what my need, my need, peace of mind,

love and for love.
