- Official Roots Reggae Sound Clash: Jah Shaka Sound System vs Jah Tubby Sound System 1987 pt2
Jah Shaka was born and grew up in Clarendon, Jamaica. But started his musical career in London, England. It was in the mid 70's that he joined the soul & R'n'B sound system Freddie Cloudburst as a soundman apprentice. A couple of years around 1970 he started his own Sound System simply known as Jah Shaka, he favored Steppers productions and often strictly dub.
Jah Shaka took his name from the Zulu leader Shaka, styling himself the African Zulu Warrior. He had a Friday night residency at Phebes Club in Hackney circa late 1978, by the following summer he was playing every Friday at the Noreik, on Seven Sisters road in Tottenham.
In 1980 and 1981 he won the best Sound System section of the Black Echoes Reggae Awards. The top 5 in 1981 were:
Jah Shacka, Sir Cxosne, Fat Man, Ray Symbolic & Moa Ambassa
Jah Shakas sound system was one of the few sounds that stuck to its vision during the 80's when dancehall started getting more oriented on subjects that wasn't concerned about Rastafari, such as slackness, gunman lyrics. As Shacka refused to compromise he went through a lean period but ultimately this gained him a strong following that has continued to grow ever since.
In 2000 he suffered several injuries from a housefire and in 2006 Jah Shaka had much of his equipment stolen. He returned with a new built sound system later the same year.
Jah Shakas son Malachi the Young Warrior has followed in his fathers footsteps and has also become a part of the UK Sound System scene.
Jah Shaka produced a string of highly appraised albums with artists such as Norman Grant (from the Twinkle Brothers), Icho Candy, Vivian Jones, Sgt. Pepper, Max Romeo, Prince Alla, Horace Andy and of course many of his own dub productions.
Jah Tubby's Sound System was established in the 1970's in North London and by 1977 were playing against the biggest Sound Systems of the day.
In early 1979 they had a Thursday night residency at Cubies club in Hackney and a Friday night one at Kippers Youth Club, Aldgate. By the middle of the year they had added a Sunday night session at the Noreik in Tottenham.
In the mid 80's they established the Jah Tubby's and Y&D record labels initially both labels released 12 inch singles up to around 1990 though the Jah Tubby's label was revived in 2000 with a series of 7inch singles and later in the decade with a series of 10inch releases.
In the 80's Aba Shanti I front man Joseph Smith deejayed on the sound using the name Jasmine Joe.
They are still going today and alongside the Sound System and record label they also manufacture amps and other equipment for a new generation of Sound Systems.

We used to go to their dances in Southend, reids, top Alex, roots hall, those were the days, different sounds every weekend. Eighties. 👍
I listened to the whole dance again today on Talawa. Jah Shaka tore up Jah Tubbys! If you listen to the end of the dance (which is not on TH-cam) he plays back to back dubs from The Disciples (Russ Disciple). When Shaka used to go into it, there was no stopping him. Jah Tubby’s seemed like he wasn’t sure if he was supposed to Jah Shaka or Kilimanjaro...lol. You have to show some respect when you attend a Rasta session. Fatman, Sir Coxsone, etc all went to the bashment side of reggae. Jah Shaka stayed to his roots.
Fool . Was de ya . Bare Matthews in the building . Tubby murder the dusty dread sound .
Anthony Cox. Tubby’s got dealt with, Tubby’s soft. It was along time ago. Listen to the full dance to get your memory on par. Jasmine Joe (Aba Shanti who is now a Shaka impersonator) tried to diss Shaka with sound boy ‘punnany too sweet garbage, music. Don’t come with that BS when a Rasta sound play. The full session is on TH-cam and you can hear Tubby’s tap out.
@@jagsgill6771 I was 15 . I went in a Ford Capri. BBB man went in a big trani van from Leicester . Listen . Tubbys N Observer in Leicester few months B4..
@@anthonycox3493 as they are both dreads, your a weirdo
@@BkuBrown what you on about weirdo . Ya mums a weirdo . Dosser
When shaka drop, good gosh. Always reminising those old days when organic rule
It doesn't really matter how heavy your bass line is, it's the notes that make your bass line that counts. Shaka Shaka Warrior! Shaka Shaka Warrior! Spiritual Warrior!
Gwarn Shaka!

Gotta love those lo-fi days...
There was nothing lofi. Infact how many sounds from that era are named HiFi. Lofi is a modern folly phrase
Throw down a sound tonight. Gwan Sound bwoy have fi hold him corner and go home
Aba Shanti aka Jasmin Joe trying to diss Jah Shaka because of his tunes and the way he plays; fast forward to the present time and Aba Shanti copies Jah Shaka's style...lol. Jah Tubby's tried to introduce his digital reggae pop music which died with his sound in the 90's. Jah Shaka used to run the scene; period.
Joe has always followed shaka. He was never original.
Lolz listen to this again, tubbs well ahead of his time, jts dubs the precursor to London jungle
No copying man, only shanti drops those tnt roots dubs!
@@colinchristopher432 nuh true
@@albertlawrence3102 believe it, even Shanti has said himself Shaka was a major inspiration for him. If you listen early Shanti tapes he is chanting EXACTLY like Shaka
Was this the same Jah Tubbys with the white Rasta from Clapton, London?

JAH TUBBY GONNA THROW DOWN A SOUND TONIGHT
JAH TUBBY GONNA KILL A SOUND BWOY TONIGHT
GOOD GRIEF...WHATATUNE
Do you know the name of this track please?
@@risbaw Like a high % of the heaviest roots music ever recorded it has never been released. You would need to ask one of the Tubby's crew. Any title of any of the vocal specials on here would be only a tag assigned to it by the sound system operators. Tubbys work out of Hackney for ever so long, had a very distinctive style of their own, integrated digital style drum programming with a spiritual style dub sound very early in the digital era & did so v successfully, relatively speaking (the dubs here are the pinnacle for me, but i am just one opinion) & they were always very accommodating if you were cutting dubplates there etc...
@@Bmatic Thank you very much for your answer and your information.
Yes this faster drum machine snare is very distinctive and I love it.
Can’t believe it so old as a style. and if I am not wrong I hear 3 artists.
All are so good . Vocals , the one better than the other.
I like this so much I think I would ask and give something of my savings
for releasing this under their name ofcourse if it’s possible.
I will try to contact .Thanks again!
@@risbaw ...how did that go?
