Dancehall Documentary - Ep.1 : "Back to basics" SUB (sous-titres): 🇫🇷 🇷🇺 🇺🇸🇪🇸🇭🇺 

I'm Dominican and I know dancehall is father of reggaeton and most of nowadays urban music

I'll come to Jamaica just to see Dancehall, much love from Papua New Guinea

So like when do more Jamaican women speak for themselves in the episode?

This is something more than just a documentary. Thank you very much for your jobs!!!

This is so heartbreaking. Touched my heart deeply. These dancers are so resilient, I admire and envy their strength

Watching this video is not a waste of time at all. I so love how the documentary was presented. Everything is true. I even cried while watching this video. I love dancehall so much. I hope I can fly to Jamaica and learn from them. So much love and respect for all the people in Jamaica. Thank you for this video. I hope Jamaican people will be given a chance to show to the world how great and talented they are. Sending my love to them all the way from the Philippines to Jamaica.

I'm infatuated with dancehall and this doc is real good. Gives an excellent background, cool interviews and lots of class examples on the sound and dance. Big thumbs up!

I saw this vid on my recommended vids, and i'm glad I clicked on it. It's very raw and honest, no filter no script. From a Jamaican I wanna say thanks for showing this with such originality.

Dancehall is my life since mi10 years old now mi 23 and still learning so much big up unuselve Jamaika greetings from germany

Fantastic job Jessica! Thank you for putting this documentary together...things need to change and this is a start! Can't wait for the next episodes

Love from PR! Dancehall is so amazing. There’s something about stepping on the land of Jamaica that makes me smile. One day I will go back to learn about dancehall from locals. You went all out on this doc: gender/racial/societal/economic perspectives and history. Blessings for Jamaica and their talented people!

Excellent !! vivement l'épisode 2

Well, really love the documentary because the facts and the research was well put together. Yes, it was Bogle who made it possible and took dancing to another level and help pushed Dancehall Music all over the world. In fact, the women are the Queens and the men are the Kings of the Dancehall because at the end of the day everything is a business.

Your culture is gold! Ang it keeps rising overseas. Ilove dancehall! This documentary really helped me to understand more of dancehall! Tysm! So much love from Philippines!🇵🇭

This is GOLD. Thank you for giving this for free Os: I am sooo going to Jamaica ❤

Strong 🙏❤

Thank you so much for this video, it was well done and extremely informative. Eye opening to me even as a Jamaican.

I’m an electronic musician from New Jersey in the states and just really learning about dancehall as the foundation of a lot that’s happening in the global dance culture so I this video has been extremely enlightening and I’m grateful to our fam in Jamaica for discovering this new economy of culture and community. Rarely is a cultural movement in the US so self aware as these cats on the vid. The understanding of making this music scene into a major Jamaican industry with many roles to play is an amazing start and I hope to see this knowledge spread to hopefully bring more profits into the island as the center of community dancehall scene who built a framework that many other cultures can replicate worldwide in especially struggling economies who can use the community and something more fun to produce income together. I suppose it’s about having the right people leading the vanguard and keeping this scene growing. * LOVED THIS DOC but only beef with This video is having so much western white girls bringing their feminist critique which will do nothing but make starving females and the girls from the island seem to be having a lot less of a problem with the culture of their own people. No one needs to here this first world liberal bullshit. We ALL need to do things we don’t exactly want to if we want to eat, white girls. You don’t want to shake your ass? I don’t want to learn 50 new types of software in a month and give up my sleep....but guess what? Life is NOT about what you want. That’s some privileged thinking that’s blind to real life. Like the boys talk about enduring the violence and bullshit bringing them down so maybe they can be more understanding of the culture as it is or if they wanna show concern for The sexual nature of female dancing it would be a shockingly open minded show of intellect and humanity to show concern for what the guys deal with if they wanna be empathetic to a foreign culture instead of just repeating the same old whining that they get away with in the “developed world”. Let’s love and respect what we get from Jamaica and dancehall and keep spreading the knowledge and reality but drive the communal aspect and philosophy that it takes a village to make an economy out of culture like This so try to restrain from taking too much of the pie and put profits back into the scene like any other business. The Jamaicans have the right idea clearly but need to add to selecta, toaster, dancer.....manager and accountant and web developer and they can all build a solid middle class for the whole towns if they keep the people on their minds and not just their selves. Everyone can feed their kids. This is a global export culture. Use Japan with anime as a model to understand what I’m saying maybe. I may be totally wrong but I think this is the roles needed to fullfill this beautiful dream of the poor becoming financially stable by Being one. Fuck communism, THIS is how the problems of capitalism can be flipped to work for the people! Someone in Jamaica please understand what I’m saying (if I’m right I don’t know but maybe u tried and I’m wrong) but I think this will help. A good organizer with the right skilled workers behind them is salvation for ur ppl. Best of luck and one love!

Great job. Big up for your work :)

I needed this

Wonderful gesture and look for Jamaica Dancehall culture

Thank you so much for this great and informing documentary! It helps us European people a lot understanding Dancehall and its culture, origin and history!! Big Up!!

much respect 💯

So touched ！！！ I love dancehall culture, I like Jamaican dancer passion

Thank you!

Amazing documentary, BIG UP! I've been visiting to Jamaica from 2012 twice a year taking dancehall classes and still this documentary gave me a lot and "said aloud my thoughts"! Respectful towards Jamaican dancehall culture and still giving the "European perspective" (great interviews with Johanna and Amalie too!) giving lots of examples what we European dancers can do more for Jamaican dancehall culture and the dancers.

Good documentary. Appreciate this. Dancehall music is trapped.

so2 the producer. Seeing this from many perspectives. Thank u

Jamaicans have something to do with teamwork!! Well done! :) Greetings from the Philippines! :)

Thanks a lot 😘

I love dancehall and Jamaican culture I try to learn on my own at home

I like what she said at 41:00, I think there should be insight on the dancers from other places that take the culture and appropriate it and the Jamaican dancers are left with nothing i.e. the girl who did the sorry video, anyone with sense could see that the dance moves are of Jamaican Dancehall origin, but she sat there and insist she created them and she wasn't influenced by anything...smh..I Hope this is cover in future episodes

THANKS!

GREAT VIDEO

Just published ab ook talking about dancehall music and jamaican society ! This documentary is more material for me, thanks for sharing !

nice report!!

Bravo et merci pour ce documentaire! ! J'ai découvert la dancehall il y a 2 ans et je cherchais justement à découvrir cette culture! Je suis donc ravie et j'ai hâte de voir le prochain épisode :)

Thanks

Amazing to how similar the history is to hip hop at the same time happening separately

great your documentary

Nice 👍🏾

Bless

Lots of correlations to the early days of hip hop in the sense that the dancehall is much more than just music itself, it is the dancing, parties and culture that is centred around the music

This is so precious, will share w my people :)

Right desso🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I would like to say that I would like to see more of the women from the JA dancehall scene giving their own opinion, and not these European girls, b coz, ah fe we ting. Dun talk

I absolutely ADORE dancehall. I found it through the Fraules Dance team/Fraules herself. My dream is to take dancehall classes

WELL DONE! ,#dancehalltodiworld

🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 music is for everyone. We took from everyone. It's ok to work together. Alot of people in dancehall know forget what dancehall is tpc. Them sell right out after watching this

I LOVE JAMAICANS....I LOVE the ACCENT .......LOVE from the USA

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💕💕💕

This very good from the dancers point of view,and from their era, however There need to be a complete documentary from the initial stage from u roy, i-roy, dillinger, suger Minot, big yute etc. All I am seeing is snippets of various stages. Dancehall is a genre which is before hiphop. First dancehall song was in 1970 ,lot of people don't even know who coin the name dancehall. Dancehall is huge and long established.

Jamaica 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲

Great documentary! In the end they said that you should come to Jamaica to learn and experience. I was just wondering, how safe is it for a white person to come to Jamaica and go to all those downtown parties to get the real experience, talk to people etc. What would be the attitude to a person like me being there?

Not much about 1980's Dancehall music, which is where I first heard it, listening to Rankin Miss P.

🇯🇲 🙌🏿

Can we get our own people to do a documentary on “our” culture please and thank you 😒

Gaza still run dancehall. #GAZANATION great work .

Legit

are there any documentaries out there that focus more on the artist and studios and songs? like dub echoes for example

👍👍👍👍🏻👍🏼👍🏽👍🏾👍🏿😉

👂👀

🤘🏾🇧🇷🇯🇲

7:79 football player bredda "FOOT-BALL" Player.👌👌

I would love to know what questions the interviewer asked! I'm writing an essay about Dancehall and it would really help me!

Y #g JESSICA AK & :-$ ♨🌎 THIS VIDEO DOCUMENTARY PRO DANCEHALL WAS GREATLY♨😈. TELL WHEN THE CONTINUATION WILL BE, THE NEXT PART IS WAITING 👑🙏☝ ???

What is the song playing at 10:05, at that party? It's so good

Alright, so to me, it sounds very similar to reggaeton. Can the experts weigh in and explain the differences to me please?
