the SKATALITES were a JAMAICAN BAND who were the pioneers of SKA MUSIC which was brought over to ENGLAND by Jamaican immigrants...

the white punk rock scene adapted many characteristics of ska and the anti establishment themes of the Jamaicans in England...

DO YOUR RESEARCH and come back with some facts..

Japan is the biggest copier of the shyt but they're damn sure not CREATING content.

EDIT: I will say that Japan does help to preserve aspects of hip-hop and electronic/dance music.

of course it is.

Listen to the FLOWS these jamaican dudes had back in the 70s and 80s...then listen to how dudes are rapping in 2010.

Straight. Swagger.

I miss the Jamaican swag in rap, when rappers would start rapping in Jamaican dialect. :ohlawd: KRS, Snoop and a whole lot of rappers usedot do this.
