Since 50’s the sound systems that sprang up downtown Jamaica have been not only the place to spin 45 and dancing but also the most popular and important hub of great innovation for reggae music and Jamaican culture. Today the excitement of 45 era (not CDJ era) has faded into memory but fortunately countless live recordings remain. Many of them were sold as cassette tapes. Give many thanks and great respect to the original owners, who kindly released their treasures. So now, bigop all massive! URFD post vintage sound tape 70’s - early 2K. For all Jamaican reggae music and sound system lovers. Hope uno enjoy! ONE LOVE.

2000 - Black Kat vs Mighty Crown (both)


SOUND: Black Kat vs Mighty Crown (both)
VENUE: Q-Club in Queens, NYC 
DATE: Jun.19 2000
ARTISTS: 
Selector/MC: Black Kat : War Tanker, Pink Panther 
             Mighty Crown: Masta Simon, Sami-T, Cojie 

NOTE:
Black Kat goes up against 1999 World Clash Champions, Mighty Crown. Mighty Crown has proof how deep their dub box are with seemingly unlimited funds to cut new tunes. But Panther is a veteran of NYC and runs from nobody! Panther tries to tackle Crown's new tunes by playing nuff new tunes of his own, but in the end was this change of pace enough to conquer the Japanese? Judge yourself!
