Yeah man they have plenty.

Yuh have Jah Melody......real big tune with, Jah Guide ......On the One Drop riddim.

Prophet Benjamin have two big tunes, coming from Moruga and Pretty Boy.....that mashing up dance down here.

Then yuh have Mr King.....Laventille.

Levi mayerz..........with an abundance of tunes.

ladies we have Queen Omega.Then yuh have others like Guitar Dan etc.

If yuh go down town.check a cd man and ask for a local conscious or dub, you will be surprised at the number of cds with around 16-20 tracks each.

They have other people who sing tunes and make it who are Trinis.......Like the Fella who sing the tune for the madagascar soundtrack.I like to Move it, move it.

But go a dancehall site like dancehallreggae.com and check the forums there.

They used to have a site mytrinisound, but I ent think it working anymore.

Also Bungi is a kinda dancehall artise....he does sing on riddims, like Put In the Ting Click here to listen

Then yuh have 3suns and benjai and them fellas who in between......wish they was dub artiste, cyar cut it so resort to singing a kinda calypso with a jakan accent.

But in truth all these Djs who play they singing soca now just disrespecting the artform.....its a wannabe waterdown parlour dub thing they doing.

for real dat Isasha real bad. Touches i doh agree with u when u say they disrespecting the artform. Music is a ting dat will continue to evolve and its just dem fellas way of expressing themselves. Bunji say dat he used to listen a lot of dub growing up and dat influence him in his music in a big way. No disrespect to soca but youths in my generation ( I'm 23) listened a lot more dancehall and hip hop than soca (which is a more seasonal music). We are constantly bombarded with this genre so its going to affect us in one way or another. I remember Bunji gettin real fight down when he now come on d scene but say wah yuh cyah please evrybody. U hadda do u.

I know this came up before but I could'nt find out.

I was wondering if anyone know where I can get my hands on some Trini reggae? like Marlon Asher, Ishasa and Prophet Benjamin. I am in Toronto but if people know any place in Trini, New York or Miami let me know.

Thanks

i was just wondering about queen omega, she seems to have some real strong tunes lyrically and rhythm wise but i find i dont hear her tunes when i listen to red 96 and even on flava 107. i heard her selections one morning i was listening to WACK but i was just wondering. maybe is just the stations i have access to on the net, perhaps if i was home i would hear here more often, but for now i have to go to ireggae.com and vibes it up
