you still have good story teller but most a the dj and dancehall fans have no time to listen to story, them just want here a riddin in timing with the dance steps.
Driver by Buju is not a bad story although it a drugs story.
I can think of a few good story dancehall songs only that most the message is negivitive.
Audience nowadays hardly care for the content of a song so the artist just get a good riddim lick and say "Yeah Yeah", Come now.
Have listen to the tune "Bad bwoy forward"? The song has absolutely no verse whatsoever and when the singer them run outa lyrics them talk bout big up tivoli, big up, jungle, big up Jamaica, New York and London. That a one verse a some a these songs.- Don't let negative things break you, instead let it be your strength, your reason for growth. Life is for living and I won't spend my life feeling cheated and downtrodden.
