Biography
"The Gladiators have been masters of the #reggae arena for the past 30 years. After the rise and fall of many reggae artists and bands, they remain one of the most influential reggae groups to date. The group's original leader, #AlbertGriffiths, formed the legendary band - whose name was suggested to him on a bus by a fellow traveller who had just seen the movie "Ben Hur." The concept of men who fought for their liberty against #Babylon immediately struck a chord with Albert and remains a testament today of the difficult life and struggle of #Jamaica."

Beyonce " Drunk In Love " Rico Love Remix feat. Plies

(Verse 1)
In a gunman world
In the night him clock in at work
Marrow splash at the tool box pull
The magazine in a the two black full
And he’s watching as the days goes by
And he’s counting as his fears all die
Sleeping with the rifle cross his chest
So he never get’s a good night rest
And then he’s drunk in the morning time
And more victims have to lose their lives
The community a christian pray
Wishing that they wasn’t in a gunman world

In a gunman life
Him might not come home from work one night
So every minute matter, ignores advise
From his weeping baby mother and child
That he walk in every game he plays
So she knows he’ll meet his end one day
Some prison time will have to earn his stripe
And have to take another gunman’s life
What if a back stabber name his price
And how ironic if him dead from knife
The mount a bullet weh him put paw bwoy
Job description fi land destroy

(Chorus)
But tell me is it worth the call
If one don rise then a next one must fall
Tell me if it worth the call
Sleepless night’s and patrol old car
Tell me is it worth the call
One try smile while a next one bwal
Tell me is it worth the
Is it worth it, is it worth the call

(Verse 2)
In a gunman world
Life is so stressful
Back to school time come
Cause when a gunman work
The fee successful
And the job is well done
Then there will be a none solve crime
With no one to fill out all blank line
And public haffi hear and deaf
Informer get a cuff, caff, queff
Plus he get nervous just like you and I
Watching out if the police pass by
Cause anyday yuh hear a gunman fail
Then is either they don’t stop trail
What will it cause to make a gun man rich
How many life before a gun man switch
The truth mi want the youth dem stop ignore
Seh the majority a gunman poor

(Repeat Chorus)

(Verse 3)
And when a gunman makes choice
I wonder what goes through a gunman’s mind
And does a gunman think twice
Before him take another someone life
I wonder what it is a gunman say
To the father when a gunman pray
Does he kiss his kids to bed at night
Making sure the blanket tuck just right
Nothing no scary like a gunman’s voice
When people beg a gunman think twice

What could a scary like a gunman’s voice
When people beg a gunman think twice

(Repeat Chorus)

Marley's music had an immense impact on me as a youth and still resonates today Like many, he was my first introduction to reggae and since my first listen back in the 70s and 80s to now, his music does and will continue to stand the test of time and impact generations of fans and musicians alike for  the high quality of song writing and his message of harmony and peace.. 

This re-vision of  "Is This Love" was done a few years ago as a free "white label" promo. Please feel free to share.

Bunji Garlin & Damian 'Jr. Gong' Marley - The Message | Extended Version 

Trinidadian soca star Bunji Garlin and Jamaican Grammy-winning reggae artist Damian "Jr. Gong" Marley team up on "The Message," a passionate forward-thinking song fighting for the souls of our youth and the future generation.

The two Caribbean artists merge soca, dancehall and reggae into a universal sound on this world cry anthem, produced by  Philip "Jr. Blender" Meckseper.  They go verse for verse addressing society's illls and Marley delivers a powerful hook aspiring for change. "There is music in your soul, minerals in your soil, children full of beauty worth way much more than oil. While history unfolds, don't let the good things spoil, oh no." 
 
Bunji Garlin gives more insight behind the collaboration."We recorded this song at Gong's studio in Florida. It was a 4 a.m. studio session after we spent about an hour and a half just talking and getting a vibe off of each other's knowledge, views and energies. I appreciate the project and artist because we were able to let both our musical backgrounds work for us to execute this. It is almost a fable to see the son of reggae legend and also a legend in his own right and artist of the soca genre meld so effortlessly."
