linton is a legend , will live on for ever , if you dont know him go look him up ...
Incomparable!! What a legendary! Such a unique personality this man is, I truly love his style of music
Yes, just come out there and dig right in deep to the heart and the roots and the blood dear Linton.
Well, his flow and accent are humorous ,and the fact that he says "Scooby Dooby Doo" at some point :D

Derek Walcot
Ar T.S.Eliot
Ah woodah write a poem

Like a precious
Memory
Whe mek yu weep
Whe mek yu feel incomplete

An yu ready fi rack steady
But di muzik done aready
Still
Inna di meantime
Wid mi riddim
Wid mi rime
Wid mi ruff base line
Wid mi own sense a time
Goon poet haffi step in line
Caw Bootahlazy mite a gat couple touzan

If I woz a tap-natch poet

To
Gran
Pickney
Each an evry wan
Can recite dat-dey wan

Wid a sweet smile
An a suttle style
Still

An gwan like a ape
Peddlin noh puerile parchment af etnicity
Wid ongle a vaig fleetin hint af hawtenticity
Like a black Lance Percival in reverse
Ar even worse
A babblin bafoon whe looze im tongue
No sah
Nat atall
Mi gat mi riddim
Mi gat mi rime
Mi gat mi ruff base line
Mi gat mi own sense a time
Goon poet bettah step in line
Caw Bootahlazy mite a gat couple touzan
But Mandela fi im

Dub poetry is where the spoken word becomes felt as well as heard.
