"Raggamuffin" can mean many different
things. Sure, it's the name of a specific style of
Reggae. The word also refers to Ghetto Youths,
many of them involved in Music too.
The Jamaican version of "Gangster
Rap"? Hmmm... Not quite. Many of the
Raggamuffin or Ghetto Youth give thanks and
praises to the Most High in a situation where many
would curse JAH.
Yes, survival is a must and even the King James
Version says not to judge the poor when they steal
a bread to feed himself and his family. A thing
which the churches seem to ignore, but JAH doesn't
forget it and neither do the Ghetto Youth.
This very reasoning seems to be the theme
behind another great podcast by the Paris based
Steppin' Youth Sound System. Great selections by
Mikal Rose and Yami Bolo, to name just two out of
-what is really- many.
The focus of the 23 track mix is on digital
riddims, heartically voiced and dubbed where the
selectors themselves add stuff to the music
continually as well.
A Big Up to all Ghetto Youths we are thankful
to forward!
