i aint here to argue or to talk shit or anything im here to listen and discover new shit aight if u wanna be all stupid then thats on u let me enjoy my reggae late

hey guys cool down...I also think wiss is the best of them. although I like the other two, skelly and apple too.

im not tryin to argue either, i replied to the post where arize told someone they was smoking too much cuz they didnt have the same opinion as him.

common sence everyone knows "wiss" is better but like u said thats just my opinion

wiss is my favorite,no need to argue,with 3 talented singers in one group of course people will have different favorites!

i do believe the theory that apple has a big ego,remember his 1st solo release was called "another moses" refferring to himself,a great song but a bit boastful.

"have no fear,oh jah africa,anooother moses is right here!

are you really sure he's referring to himself ? quite surprising. To my ears Apple sang most of the band's best songs : Jah is the Way, Walk the streets of glory, We a de rasta, etc., etc.

"Jah is like a flowing stream washing me clean, Jah rule forever, fya bun you Lucifer"

I never really understood how so much of those artists have been passing from such a spiritual level to what it seems to be now. Which can be felt in the evolution of their music, from pure inspiration to commercial flat songs.

well were talking roots wize for instance:

wiss:
licks n kicks
original soljahs
mr taxman
jailhouse rocking
soldiers of jah army
cool n calm
live n give
unseen bullet

skelly:
the same song
whats the use

apple:
jah love me
rudeboy shufflin
why u so craven

so u tell me who has had better root hits. but i do respect everyones opinion but im just giving a fact thats all.

jah bless...

My personel favorite is Apple, although Wiss is also great, so is Skelly, I don't think arguing will change anyones preferance, Together Israel Vibration has given us some great music, and even though the lead vocals were switched around, they created these songs together, hence the word Trio, They weren't solo artists they were Israel Vibration.
Respect Allways

I may prefer Wiss's voice but judging from the current shows from Wiss+Skelly on the one hand and Apple solo on the other, Apple is waaay better.

Greetings!

My faves are Wiss and Skelly. If you compare Wiss`LP Mr. Sunshine to Apples`Another Moses album you`ll know who rules.
Saw all 3 of dem performimg in Berlin with Roots Radics. I was front line next to dem. Flabba playing it cool, Dwight Pickney smiling to me when he see how much I like his guitarwork. Wiss an Skelly dem singin an dancin...and Apple??

He looked like beeing 100% boared...just like waiting in the supermarket. That was funny, cause the were playin "feeling irie". Apple wasn`t and everybody could see.

Guidance,
