5.0 out of 5 stars Pure Classic - Must Have CD, March 27, 2010

This review is from: Screaming Target (Audio CD)
Big Youth at his best on some of the hardest riddims ever produced in the 40+ year history of reggae. This is one of the foundation albums of reggae - a must-have classic.

BUY IT AND YOU'LL HAVE NO REGRETS!!!!!!!

This review is from: Screaming Target (Audio CD)
I really like this record. The songs are very catchy with a cool heavy sound. I could do without the screaming, its actually pretty annoying. Overall this record is right up there with the classics for me. A good addition to anyones collection.

Maybe it was all the above. I do not know, I am here to review Big Youth's record Screaming Target, not to take Rap's illegitimate daddy to court. Although, here are a few truths that are not disputed- Big Youth coined the phrase, "Natty Dread" and was the first Rasta to flash his locks up on stage.

That and he is a massive influence on Miami hip-hopper rude bwoy Tafari. How do I know this ? Check out father and son...[...]
