Somebody told me years ago that reggae will save rap. I ain't wanna believe but this here, I can listen to everyday
Reagge saved my life, glad u enjoy it
🤞👍
Listen Red Gold and Green bro! Its next lvl stuff!
Been a solo fan of true Jamaican reggae since I was 14 but I can say that true Rasta reggae got me through one of the hardest times of my life of finding my papa dying….these two and the other og greats and Marley sons music helped me limp through it…. . So grateful.
Don't hear Rap now. Mi don't listen to it monn
Both Stony Hill and Kontraband are phenomenal from beginning to end... not one bad track. In fact, anything Jr. Gong touches is golden.
This is true 🔥🔥🔥
GOLDEN!!!
"If it go to court we just appeal it like tangerine". BARS👌🏾
Me encantan los dos

Nico Kwesi it was uploaded less than 1hr ago. What do you expect?
Nico Kwesi Remember his name is Gong to the Zilla... Research what Gong means
Nico Kwesi it was 1. day,,wtf?
eiii ci prost ești
Martin Don - “Gong” the founder of the Rastas, he had Indian influence when defining ITAL ( Ital is Vital ) “Tough Gong” is Bob Marley &
“Jr Gong“ is Damian , also known as GongZilla. Did I get that right Martin ?

Yow two of the best lyricists of the modern reggae era. YOWWWWWWW
Amazing!!!! Gongzilla and Pyramid are a match made in Zion!!!
This rapping is incredibly elegant😂👏🏻 the back and forth is top notch✊🏻 love from 🏴
Obviously a family of drug dealing rascals would be the most elegant of all 😉

the flinga dingaling - “and now this fucking dog is sniffing me” 🤣😂 I’ve never heard “Jr Gong” swear before
He’s been to our British Parliament to meet with MPs, with Dr Frank with him who’s an expert on cannabis, to discuss medical cannabis legalisation in particular, before recreational legalisation. Education before Recreation 😊❤️💛💚🦁🌱♻️🌳🌴🌲💧🔥🌬🕉✊🏽
P.S I like your name 🤣
Two Lyrical Geniuses and the transition between artist is #flawless - you don't see this ishhhh everyday. Pure Genius #Wordplay on point
