An Introduction to REAL Entertainment

Entertainment is a phenomenon which includes people who want to find an agreeable occupation for their minds. Their thoughts automatically gravitate to whatever feels good to them and they continue engaging that vibe depending on the intensity of that person and the amount of energy they have left to enjoy it. However, the level of entertainment can vary from country to country or the towns within the countries... but where I'm from, there's always more than enough energy to burn when it comes to entertainment. It is a huge part of the JA'can culture that branches off into several aspects.

To name a few is still a lot, but here is a clip showing an example of what this interesting culture's dancing is like. The video clip was done by a couple of good friends of mine who share a similar passion for creative expressions as myself. The location of this clip is in Waterhouse, Kingston; a well known inner-city/ghetto/garrison where our culture is very raw, but authentic...


Proverbs 24:10 from Rickards Bros. on Vimeo.

That's just a piece.

Another unique aspect is an uncanny ability to express thoughts in a comical, aggressive, spiritual or silky-smooth manner using music with lyrical rhymes. We call it dancehall/reggae.

Check this out... the following clips feature performances of some of Jamaica's leading dance hall and reggae artists, Damian "Jr. Gong" Marley and his big brother Stephen Marley sons of the late Bob Marley. This next video is an example of the comical expression I was talking about>>>




This is the aggressive side>>>





Here we have the spiritual side>>>




... And of course, the silky-smooth side ;) >>>>>





Well as the title implies, this is just an introduction... so stay tuned homies!!!
