General Trees is doing very well after suffering two strokes in recent years. Though not 100% his recovery has been progressing extremely well.
Teach Dem Big up the general blessings and love with respect at all times 🙏💯❤️
Prayers ! I will be watching later and drink hot chocolate with my mug I bought from you ,i recieved them today thank you teach, looking forward to hear the general trees himself later, bless up everyone
The general one of the best to ever do it on the Mic in the dance hall he took no prisoners .
Try and get papa San
Sickness is a hell of a ting! Howdie General. Pray for healing.
A real Jamaican Treasure, The word legend does not fit this Man he is way more than that, Jamaica should build him a museum while he is still alive, The name General Trees should be stamped on every microphone. A real Jamaican treasure
Word!!
He is dance hall
@@shaggacrab
A true dat!
Real talk
Agreed 💯
This hurt my feeling, alot of 80s and 90s dj was mistreated by thieving producers
Jack needs to do what we all know is right. Give the man his compensation with interest
Fe real
@@playreggaeguide highway robbers
Jack sounds like he doesn't pay artist for their work, King Yellowman said he used to DJ on Scorpio and wasn't getting paid, but I was most surprised when General Trees said he was not being paid 🤔
@@pablot7049 that's because they looked up to people like Jack too much.
Jack is collecting money for these guys so he must pay them
Over 2.k watching, and not even 500 likes. Do it for the veteran Trees. Bless up.
🗣🗣🗣General 3🌳 was robbed BLIND, and he still doesn’t understand..! But anyways he was a great entertainer 🔊🔊🔊💃🏿🕺🏻
Youth cool yuself,this man is an icon. Watch his likes go to 20k in no time.
When i hear trees talk about papa san ...san must have been the bad DJ of all time
I must remember to pray for General Trees, he's a great man and a humble man...a true son of Zion!
Teach Dem, thank you, thank you, thank you so much for having the (real general) on the show, General Trees is my first musical idol... this is the first time watching a Teach Dem interview where I got so emotional... 😭when hearing the General talk about how Jack dealt with him on the business part of the music I couldn't help but shed some tear knowing how huge the General songs was as a youth growing up; he was the man for many years, artists use to fear the General and that's not a joke talk. I watch this man shell down stage shows and dancehall like no other.. I have him as 1 of the greatest to ever do dancehall/reggae music 🎶. Salute mi General 🙌.
✍🏾
Straight Facts 💯
Salute to The General him self General Trees and muff Respect Teach Dem for this Interview of one of the badest and greatest Artist of Reggae Dance Hall music General Trees

I met General trees on more than one occasion and he is one of the most humble and wonderful entertainer there is. He does not possess any "Diva" attitude unlike 99% of artist.
Big up yourself General , yuh large. May God grant you prosperity and a long and healthy life.

General threes respect boss,I remember when you use to intransit in montego bay when returning from your tours I use to play guitar at the airport and you always give me a $20 or $50 us every time you come in and yu use to tell super cat and echo to give gitsy a money him a good boy now hearing your story I will never forget you blessings Mr DJ.
It’s so funny Trees rate San , and San say trees in his prime was his hardest battle. They both have each other as number 1
i used to rush to watch on stage every sunday but since teach dem start is platform me nah lie i don't even watch on stage to much. i can't keep up with teach dem but some of the artist dem like general trees,peter metro.bunny g i'm not missing them.A massive big up to teach dem i know trees was sick but i never know he had two strokes but me glad him still look well .one thing with trees him all ways neatly attire. up deh trees
Teach Dem! Jack (Black Scorpio) owes it to Trees and family. Jack must just do the right thing and give what is due (Royalties) to the legendary Trees. From Azania (South Africa) 🇿🇦
I was worried that teach dem wouldn't got to do this interview Because of the stroke, general is my first artiste that i look at and love his songs bad artiste great great,thanks teach dem
General Trees one of my top three. Artists always say that they were robbed of royalties yet when Khago went for what is his many out there criticized him. Get your royalties Trees. .
You can hear the humbleness in this man interview, all the artist or the people that he mention throughout his interview, he regards them as “Good Youth”. This says a whole lot about him.
Humblest interview I’ve on your channel so far. Maximum Respect to you Teach Dem.
Richest Blessings to you Sir General Trees.
Wishing a full recovery 🙌🏾💯💪🏾✊🏾
Blessings General it was a joy to be at dance with you
General Trees, one of my favorite DJs, shaap as a tack!!! It is a joy to see him recovering from his stroke incidences. I would have loved to hear him do a piece of Ivan but I still fuljoyed the interview. Teach Dem, continue acknowledging the works of those who have paved the way. May good health, wises and strength continue to be heaped upon you. UP UP!!!!!!!
One of the only man that could hold a sound from the beginning of a dance to the end by his self, real general!!!!
Blessings. This should be a good interview..One of the best.
Blessings. Health, Health.
Respect mi General your contribution to reggae music is superb, can't forget seeing you on stage shows with your gimmics you're an actor and comedian mixed in the thing.
These artiste in the 80s was so much in love with the music and so loyal that they were blind to the financial aspect of the business, my apology for their lack of monetary fun and support while giving us so much joy with their talent, these producers should be ashamed of themselves.
Such a joy to see the General in high spirit, one of my all time favorite artiste
They need to pay trees him royals off his songs nuff love and respect. I remember I saw him years ago in boulevard super center he was humble and jovial
Did not even realized that I was part of history when I first heard the General live at Skyliner club in Savanna La Mar 1983. Big up to the real General.
I can’t wait for this one he is part of my young years growing up in Jamaica,keep the faith my brother ❤️💪🏾🙏🏽🫂

Salute General
Great interview Teach Dem, big up General Trees great artists 🇯🇲🇯🇲🤛🤛👑👑..
General Trees and Brigadier Jerry are the two most respected DJs in dancehall history
He is a real gentleman 👏🏿, true gentleman so humble.
It was a wonderful interview with Trees. The humble spirit within Trees.Will save him a place in heaven.
My respect General trees. Happy to see his recovering pretty fine. Slowly but surely still can able to interview .
The early artist who made the way have been robbed that is total wickedness.
General tress was a big part of the soundtrack of my childhood “a dozen conductor” ❤
My hero of dancehall. The first time I heard him I was hooked, his timing & ability to ride any riddim stood out head and shoulders above the rest, only Major worries Stichie, SAN & Shabba came close to the general
Thank you so much for this interview he is a real Living Legend
Give thanks 1❤️
One of my favorite DJ no joke the man lyrical is a shame, always remember seeing the General in the 80s on black Scorpio bad bad DJ, just wishing the artist a full recovery.
Teach by attending your HISTORY class every week. I get to understand that San is the man.
Papa San was the biggest ,lyrically incline
Period
These DJ were decent and made people smile with their lyrics
Thanks for interviewing him Teecha
We need an interview teach dem with professor nuts.
Second this statement, we really need the Nuts
"I cannot understand how a man was robbing you blind and you're talking about loyalty "
General I can't get that bredda.

Jack is spending dirty money that he steal from the dj
@Mr Lex please. Find a legal way to collect your money that you work so hard on stage and in the studio for

Respect to the veteran Trees. Health and strength to him. Continue the good works Teach👊🏿
Trees was my shoe repair man at Mrs Fearon, on Davidson Avenue. He would DJ to us then, way before Scorpio came around! He would say "I'm gonna fix your shoes googidy", so as kids we called him GOOGIDY. Much love and respect! He went to Jack with his talents and he got exploited!
Bless up, Teach Dem. & General Trees. Gaan a Negril🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯🇯🇲💯🇯🇲💯🇯🇲💯🇯🇲💯🇯🇲💯🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲💯🇯🇲💯🇯🇲🙏🏿💓🖤💚💛✊🏿
I remember seeing Beenie Man around 9 years old performing at Ivy's Cool Spot in Augustown as a child. Beenie is not my DJ, but he deserves everything he works for.
I always learn something about life from these veteran artist. Despite the trials and tribulations, general trees is still laughing, joking and humble. Strong individual right here.
Scorpio too tief. Much love and respect to Trees. Jah Know
Maximum respect to the General, a true master of Jamaican music, all the best sir

True thing Bredda because we hear it out of nuff Dj mouth that them couldn’t get around General Trees. 🎤🎶🎶🎼🎼🎵🎵🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yes
He's as also a very great dancer who thought the dancehall queen some moves..
Yes indeed 😎
Thanks Teach for this interview was asking for him you yourself is a general bless up.
Teach Dem, I can't wait for this one, General Trees is my first musical hero/idol, I wrote my first lyrics off his "Ghost Rider" song... it was call Ghost Buster. If I should pick my top 5 artist of all time he's definitely in it.
Trees is too humble, probably that's why the producers exploit him
@@nurvillemcleod6813 it's really sad because of how loyal he was to that family 👪.. we all think everything was good 👍😔
When the names of great DJs are mentioned, the great Trees will be there
The first 45 i ever bought Was minibus almost 30 years and it still play ! Big up general trees ,real legend ! And of course big up Teacha for this interview !
I remember watching a stage show and he was performing a song called "Peanut Man" and he came out on stage like a vendor with a few bag of peanuts between his fingers, real entertainer.
✍🏾
This is one of the greatest dj that can talk all night and don’t talk no slackness big up me G
Teach dem i gave up on dancehall nowadays to be honest but you doing dis give me happiness and faith that jamaica dancehall will be back where it was stay bless

Bless up trees one the true Dj in a the business..not only as a entainer but as a human being..big up lord Sassafras his teacher..underrated artist them.
Need to hear professor nuts too.
Believe it or not, off stage nuts doesn't come across as a talkative character.
@@marcmarcello981 I don't know about doing interviews as I never saw him on one, but in the late 80s and early 90s he used to play Dominoes in Keswick Cumberland St Catherine and he was amusing like he was on stage 😄
Bredda humble. Give thanks to him. Great example a person doing what they love without malice and bitterness towards the process. Bless up mi General. One of my first inspiration!
Hi ok
Consistent threads of tea demand interviews: producers rub the artistes
Little or no institutionalize schooling
Jamaicans promoters are not to be trusted
The death of large stage shows in Jamaica
Many artiste have great love for the music over money
Many of the old artiste miss the love of the old days
Living legend great lyricist, gave many djs a hard time
He's one of the legends who got brain washed and pimped!! I feel for them. Nuff respect!!
😭😭😭😭😭I got goose bumps, love , respect and blessings🙏🏾🖤🔥🖤🙏🏾
I feel emphaty for the General, him get brainwashed by his loyalty and commitment to Jack Scorpio ♏😤
It a blessing how him come back big you self general tree
I feel the same way
Some of these stories hurt mi heart.Why these producers have to be so greedy and evil.Blessings and favor on your life Trees, you are one of the true greats.
General Trees - I will always remember Gone A Negril, Mini Bus recordings
Such a humble man.. More blessings Trees..
Teach Dem, pretty soon you can play your own Dub Plates (as they call your name in special tunes). More importantly, you can start lecturing on the history of dancehall and reggae with unique content and even write books. You have received gems directly from the talent. Proud of you and your works. We can now put faces to the music we have enjoyed. Thank you for your classes, as we are your students.The messages have certainly reached us. Blessings !!
I've been awaiting this interview... Bless up General!
It's all been confirmed now.San is the baddest Dj dancehall ever see ☝️
