Agreed. If you listen to many of the successful pop artists, there's at least a switch between singing and dance-hall style chorus. Whether we want to acknowledge it, Biggie ran with this, and it's just as fresh as it was in the nineties. The back-and-forth between hip-hop and dancehall reggae might be the most crucial fusion in vocal styles in 2020.
The real feel or dancehall. No carbon copy or blue print. Original king Tenor R.I.P. 23yrs since his death at the age of 22yrs old. And still inspired by us all. Gwaan Mr Clive Bright, your still doing it many years on!! One of many legends!! Respect.
His songs were relatable and simple, based on repetitive chanting of sentiments to which we an all relate. He was a genius who knew how to make a simple bass ostinato and a two chord progression work a miracle, time after time. One of reggae’s all time greats, vastly under-appreciated.
I was 10 or 11 when I first heard Tenor Saw, I remember how his songs made me feel. It was so different from everyone else. He's the Godfather of Dancehall to me....
You feel a joke the sick inna them bumboclaat head man Hear how music smooth man 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥am pretty young but jah know a them music yah a my music
Sometimes I do wonder what tje situation would have been if Bob Marley, Dennis Brown, Garnet Silk, Tenor Saw were still alive 😢😢 Anywayz big up Tenor Saw all the time, long live the artist 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
He had such a beautiful old soul... in a kind way, I think he lived well for the short time he was here! I get goose bumps just watching how lighthearted and easy it was, for him to show his talent!!! It’s almost like an angel who visited us. 🇯🇲🙏💙😎. I AM SO GRATEFUL TO BE BORN AND RAISED IN JAMAICA! ❤️🇯🇲 Love Mi Culture Deeply
I wish to get into the same church as him, Hawkwind said you better believe It. I don't think he ever knew about this song although he can add "and enjoy It". Atheist's Bible 1960's afro chapter. Blessings 😂
His voice is so clean and his energy is electrifying. Rest well Tenor Saw! It would be a miracle if they figured out what happened to you one day and who was responsible.
Big Up Mr. Clive Bright. I can only imagine how excited he must have been to be inna Japan! To look out at the sea of people vibing to his music. RIP King. Original Tenor Saw bless up!
ingrid gibbs Likewise I play him and Nitty Gritty almost everyday. I tried to get Tenor Saw son to start singing but he a basketball fanatic.. I asked him can he sing like this he said hell no.. lol
Da Royal General Yes he was barely 1.. To be honest his mother barely knew Clive.. When she got pregnant it was right after they met and after that he was always on the road and back to Kingston to Cherry his mother.. So Justin use to ask me how was his father.. He was always told Super Cat killed his father but nobody knows..
Da Royal General Oh yea everytime I facebook him to see a video he say "I seen it already Don thanks".. He into basketball coaching H.S JV team in Brooklyn..
Da Royal General I tried to take him to Jamaica to meet his Grandmother she has not seen him since he was a newborn.. And I have no clue how that happened but it was video footage with him in her arms.. Might have been another baby but the footage said Clives son with his mother Cherry..

In a genre clash I would send Tenor saw to represent Reggae; There will never be another like Tenor Saw! If Tenor Saw would neva dead, but lived on - then you would see what I already see! Tenor Saw dubplates mash up many sound systems...
I still can’t get over his passing... every time I watch this video... I can’t help but wonder “Who” killed him!!!!!! Was it Jamaicans whom he was hanging out with, or was it Americans.... Just “WHO” killed him and left him by the wayside in Texas 🥲🥲🥲
He was a real super star Even by Jamaican standards he was unbelievable good live A real real REAL TALENT 😂 Not like the fake super stars from America or even today in Jamaica No talents there what I have seen sadly
