KABAKA PYRAMID & THE BEBBLE ROCKERS

New Wave Reggae – meint das Joy Division meets Peter Tosh for a spliff, oder Lee Scratch besäuft sich mit Siouxsie Sioux? Mitnichten – wobei Siouxsie und Perry, wer weiss … – hier geht’s schlicht um die jüngste Generation aus J’meeka, welche selbstverständlich vom musikalischen Erbe der Karibikinsel zehrt und diese Fackel hochhält, aber ohne sich dabei dem Zeitgeist zu verschliessen.
No retro, sondern Progression. KABAKA PYRAMID und seine BEBBLE ROCKERS singen Lieder davon und warten dabei mit einem Palmarès auf, der ihre Dringlichkeit bebildert: eingeladen an den relevantesten Festivals der Szene – wie beispielsweise dem Rototom – Produktionen mit big players wie Major Lazer und ständiges Liebäugeln mit dem internationalen Rap Game. Any further questions? KABAKA PYRAMID & THE BEBBLE ROCKERS im Dachstock – that’s where we keep up the righteousness. (txt:üd)
