Hello roots reggae friends.

Please don't call me crazy but why i cannot tolerate new roots reggae like MORGAN HERITAGE, SIZZLA, CAPLETON, JAH CURE, LUCIANO among others there is only me or anybody out there are in the same line with me????.
of course i know about many new bands or singers GROUNDATION, DAWEH CONGO, CULTURA PROFETICA ETC.
but when i hear sizzla or jah cure sound for me a little bit violent i have to say i know about the realitie in jamaica or violence and injustice for just be rasta.
usually this singers sound arrogant and racist why??? what happen with PERFECT LOVE AND UNDERSTANDING OR ONE LOVE ONE HEART is not a secret about some artisT has been banned in some countryes. the main subject about the lyrics are violence, guns, slackness, butts, homofobia,etc etc etc.
i love roots reggae i feel the good vibes and the rhithym i love real drums, guitars, bass, horns, percussion, sweet voices AND GOOD and POSITIVE LYRICS.
This site is for roots reggae lovers from late 60's till mid 80's THE BEST REGGAE ERA.. anybody agree with me
IS JUST MY PERSONAL POSITION

you are not talking about new roots! all these artists are dancehall

morgan heritage doesn't talk about negative subjects,their songs are weak though

Saw Luciano perform in Amsterdam with a couple of months ago: a truly great concert, new roots at his best.
