進展し、私達はジャマイカにいる微笑する。 微笑ジャマイカアフリカはである私達が前にジャマイカの脂肪質のタイヤの祝祭および自転車の強打にちょうど約週行ったジェームス・ボンド浜でOracabessaで握られるべき年の微笑のジャマイカこのコンサートのための主題結合する。 より自然な美の島の実際に美しい部分いつもあなたのまわりでその。 ジャマイカの東海岸は残あるものが多くの方法で実質のジャマイカのである。 私がこのショーから戻るようにすぐに上がるその記事を捜しなさい。 私は決してジュニアがどら行うためにおよびそれ彼らの父が1976年に始めたコンサートことをで行う段階の彼そして彼の兄弟見られる実質の喜びであることを見たあらないことは。 Damianにジャマイカの支持された兄弟のここにようで、頻繁に島の部分が誰かに私行く彼の音楽がほとんどここに彼の父音楽を発破を掛けることをある。 私はよりよいジュニアのどらのTuff音がキングストンの生命を反映するジャマイカで彼の幸せで陽気なメロディーメーカーが付いている白いアメリカにZiggyの演劇をよく彼よりするここに考える。 Damianは私にへの彼の父の交戦中の側面によって影響を及ぼされるようである(またはそのピーターToshはか。あった) そして多分Ziggyは私達は1つのよいspliffが付いている世界を救ってもいいことを考える腰回りが大きな子供である。
それはそれらが両方同胞の前に行うのを見るように驚くばかりはずである従って私は群集がショーでそれらについていかに感じるか見ることができる。 私は外見上私が彼のような多くを見るので私がキングストンに通りでジャマイカ平均により私するZiggyを行くとき私が時々私をジュニアのどらと電話している人々を得ることを認知している。 I get very strong reactions from older Jamaicans and especially older Rastas for my resemblance to the Marley clan and I have had it happen over and over that they think I look like Damian more than Ziggy or Bob himself. I don’t think I look like any of them but I guess i can see the confusion for some Jamaicans who rarely see a brown skinned Taliban looking dread like me. I also want to see how the boys handle the commercialization of their fathers image and his being packaged more as a product than a person here in Jamaica. I sure hope not to see his image used like it is all over the island. Bob Marley is used to sell Jamaica more like Colonel Sanders sells chicken or like Ronald sells McDonalds most often and I personally am disgusted by how “The Legend” is treated by most Jamaicans. Bob Marley has become a cash cow for almost the entire country and he’s rolled over in that mausoleum in St Anns a few thousand times I bet. I sure hope his sons maintain the high level of respect for him at this commercial show that I have seen in their commercial music and they don’t disrespect the King of Reggae during Reggae Month in Jamaica.
Kingston, Jamaica:– Oraccabessa St. Mary will come alive on Saturday February 23 when the Marley Legacy is unleashed at the James Bond Beach. Bob Marley foundation and Ghetto Youths in association with The Rita Marley Foundation presents ‘Smile Jamaica – Africa Unite’ in tribute to the work of the late Nesta Robert Marley. The event follows an initiative of the Marley family to unite Africa and Members of the African Diaspora through Music and to perpetuate the message of Love, Strength and Hope that was the hallmark of Bob Marley’s career.
This is the second staging of the ‘Smile Jamaica’ concert since its rebirth in 2007. The first concert was held in December 1976, at which the legend himself, Bob Marley, headlined the show at the National Heroes Park in Kingston. Despite being attacked the night before, he bravely and defiantly stepped out and said he would only do one song, but ended up working the stage for ninety minutes. This year’s staging of the event represents an intersection, where The Africa Unite concert staged in Ethiopia and Ghana previously merge to create an experience that transcends culture, language, race and economic barriers.
The show features for the first time in Jamaica, on one stage, the Marley Brothers, Stephen, Ziggy, Damian, Julian, Kimani displaying their unique talents. Having amassed their own career wealth Grammy winners Stephen Damian and Ziggy are eager to display their unique magic on stage. Stephen is touted to take the stage with a new accolade as he is nominated for the coveted Grammy Award for his debut solo album ‘Mind Control’ the Awards will be staged on Sunday, February 10.
Other acts booked to appear are Rihanna, Javaughn,Elephant Man, Sizzla, Queen Ifrica, Capleton, Richie Spice, Lutan Fyah, Spragg Benz and Tarrus Riley and is touted to be the most colourful climax imaginable to the Month now Dubbed Reggae Month.
Smile Jamaica – Africa Unite takes place on Saturday February 23 at the James Bond Beach. Patrons will join in this historic event for $1500.00 and are guaranteed a wonderful demonstration of The Jamaican Motto ‘Out of Many, One people’.
