Musical Imaginary, Identity and Representation: the Case of Gentleman the German Reggae Luminary
Ali 1 Musical Imaginary, Identity and Representation: The Case of Gentleman the German Reggae Luminary A Senior Honors Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation with distinction in Comparative Studies in the undergraduate colleges of The Ohio State University By Raghe Ali April 2013 The Ohio State University Project Advisors Professor Barry Shank, Department of Comparative Studies Professor Theresa Delgadillo, Department of Comparative Studies Ali 2 In 2003 a German reggae artist named Gentleman was scheduled to perform at the Jamworld Entertainment Center in the south eastern parish of St Catherine, Jamaica. The performance was held at the Sting Festival an annual reggae event that dates back some twenty years. Considered the world’s largest one day reggae festival, the event annually boasts an electric atmosphere full of star studded lineups and throngs of hardcore fans. The concert is also notorious for the aggressive DJ clashes1 and violent incidents that occur. The event was Gentleman’s debut performance before a Jamaican audience. Considered a relatively new artist, Gentleman was not the headlining act and was slotted to perform after a number of familiar artists who had already “hyped” the audience with popular dancehall2 reggae hits. When his turn came he performed a classical roots 3reggae song “Dem Gone” from his 2002 Journey to Jah album. Unhappy with his performance the crowd booed and jeered at him. He did not respond to the heckling and continued performing despite the audience vocal objections. Empty beer bottles and trash were thrown onstage. Finally, unable to withstand the wrath and hostility of the audience he left the stage. -
A Caribbean Taste TEXT
A Caribbean Taste of Technology: Creolization and the Ways of Making of the Dancehall Sound System Julian Henriques Technosphere Magazine, April 2017 Pre-publication draft, full text available from http://technosphere-magazine.hkw.de/p/18f097c0-0f15-11e7-be53- e1d41ebdbb0f The Caribbean has long been considered a melting pot of Old and New Worlds. Writer, director, and cultural researcher Julian Henriques looks at the Jamaican reggae dancehall sound system to explore how this street technology has found creolizing ways to prevail in the neocolonial power struggle between popular culture and Jamaica’s ruling elite Image 01: A Caribbean Taste of Technology album cover, Ariwa, 1985, artist unaccredited This article takes its name and inspiration from Mad Professor’s album A Caribbean Taste of Technology in response to the theme of this Technosphere issue.1 This makes a good place to start a discussion of creolization and technology – the dub reggae tracks of this album produced British producer Mad Professor and released in 1985, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ewDTHfJqLwI So what I present here is a text and ideas version of the album as it were. The album cover artwork sets the tone. The Mad Professor himself lays back in a hammock enjoying the drink in his hand (the glass containing the entire Caribbean archipelago), the sun-soaked beach and the array the latest technological accoutrements of the era together with a selection of tropical fruits.2 The technology is evidently not a threat, but a source of pleasure; he is relaxed about it. This is the key message: in the Caribbean context new technologies are an invitation to be creative, an impulse that leads to Afrofuturism.3 This creativity is nowhere better expressed than in Jamaican music and the global influence this has in terms of sound, rhythm and phonographic performance techniques. -
Lila Iké | Biography Lila Ike (Pronounced Lee-Lah Eye-Kay) Is on the Brink of Stardom. the 26-Year-Old Jamaican Songbird
Lila Iké | Biography Lila Ike (pronounced Lee-lah Eye-kay) is on the brink of stardom. The 26-year-old Jamaican songbird has an edge and ease in her voice that creates an immediate gravitational pull with her listener, fusing contemporary reggae with elements of soul, hip-hop and dancehall. The free-spirited, easy-going singer has already released a handful of velvety smooth songs through In.Digg.Nation Collective, a record label and talent pool for Jamaican creatives, founded by reggae star Protoje. The ExPerience will be Lila Iké’s debut EP for Six Course/RCA Records in a new partnership with In.Digg.Nation Collective. She breathes a delicate testimony of love, infatuation, and spiritual guidance in the 7-track release out this Spring. The EP is padded with previously-released songs such as “Where I’m Coming From” and “Second Chance.” Pivoting from the singles that earned her international acclaim in 2018 and 2019, Lila Iké unveils playful seduction on “I Spy,” her first release of 2020 produced by Izy Beats (the hitmaker behind Koffee’s “Toast”). Beckoning with innocent flirtation over soft guitar licks, Lila in a sweet falsetto sings, “I spy I spy, that you see something you might like. Won’t you come over if you really mean it.” The layers to Lila are in full bloom as she opens up about the daily pressures she faces through her interaction with people and wanting peace of mind in “Solitude” — . On “Stars Align,” Lila flips the instrumental from Protoje’s “Bout Noon” into an anthem about falling in love through the metaphor of making music. -

Thinking on 4:44 [DWR, 7.7.17]
Thinking on 4:44 [DWR, 7.7.17] There is little room for debate in pointing to JAY Z ’s new album as important. The tight, ten-track release – with a bonus three cuts on CD and vinyl – presents as watershed because of popular attending to the vulnerability put center, and because of JAY Z’s deep Black identities that anchor the long play. Bluntly, mainstream isn’t used to the complexity of adult men of color outlining mistakes, assuming responsibility, and maintaining fidelity to their Culture in ways that remain unapologetic while also apologizing to those they’ve hurt. This humanness is publicly relegated to a special-whiteness. So then, when a Black man occupies this human touch he becomes a novelty, ironically objectified with his break from typical objectification and reduction to stereotype. No doubt, JAY is a special one. He is a master artist, a clever businessman and has effectively worked the angles to become iconic without being a clown. The strength of 4:44 is not in the trappings, rather it’s in the letting go. The sub-sixty- minute narrative wins as a statement of psychological balance. It is a release of the shame assumed in trying to fit to that special-whiteness, in performance to the respectability gaze that has us tapping to a rhythm that is not our own. Producer No I.D. pivots from Nina Simone to Donny Hathaway to Stevie Wonder and other thick soul samples as a blueprint for freedom fighting, allowing JAY Z the space to take deep breaths and to be. -
Grime + Gentrification
GRIME + GENTRIFICATION In London the streets have a voice, multiple actually, afro beats, drill, Lily Allen, the sounds of the city are just as diverse but unapologetically London as the people who live here, but my sound runs at 140 bpm. When I close my eyes and imagine London I see tower blocks, the concrete isn’t harsh, it’s warm from the sun bouncing off it, almost comforting, council estates are a community, I hear grime, it’s not the prettiest of sounds but when you’ve been raised on it, it’s home. “Grime is not garage Grime is not jungle Grime is not hip-hop and Grime is not ragga. Grime is a mix between all of these with strong, hard hitting lyrics. It's the inner city music scene of London. And is also a lot to do with representing the place you live or have grown up in.” - Olly Thakes, Urban Dictionary Or at least that’s what Urban Dictionary user Olly Thake had to say on the matter back in 2006, and honestly, I couldn’t have put it better myself. Although I personally trust a geezer off of Urban Dictionary more than an out of touch journalist or Good Morning Britain to define what grime is, I understand that Urban Dictionary may not be the most reliable source due to its liberal attitude to users uploading their own definitions with very little screening and that Mr Thake’s definition may also leave you with more questions than answers about what grime actually is and how it came to be. -
