  • Roots Reggae is replete with mystic men with a rebellious streak but Yabby You went down as the ultimate outsider and rebel even among his own Rasta brethren. Ultimately emerging as one of Roots Reggae's greatest visionaries

    I found out about Yabby You in 2023, great to find a Reggae artist who puts Jesus first and has pure scriptual lyrics . He is singing yabby yabby yoou with the angels now. Thanks also to King Tubby's dub mixes, Michael Prophet and so on... many great artists of God❤

    Yabby you jesus dread 1972 1977 a must and a great one to have in any reggae collection on L.P. or C.D. the thing is I think you can go near anywhere in reggae and there be a great singer, artist, producer, studio that's what makes reggae a Joy and a Gift to all from jah and god. God bliss them all for there great music that will live on thow time.

      @rolandpritchard1731....agreed - i can't think of a better collection of vocals/deejays & dubs from 'Classic era JA' .
      I thought maybe VP would have bought the rights & reissued , but with the expanded 'Conquering Lion' & 'Walls of Jerusalem ' sets most of it has been made available..

    • @andchat6241
      @andchat6241 Před rokem

      which one were you thinking of? As nearly everything he did was voiced & mixed at Tubbys .
      + 'Beware dub' , 'Prophesy of dub,, Prophesies dub (mixed by pat Kelly ) .
      'Chant down babylon'/'walls of Jerusalem ' is one side 6 vocals & the dubs on the other.
      'Yabby you/Michael prophet in dub '+ 'dub station' ( scientist mixes) all are worth having ..& there are many more .

    How great of a legend you have to be to have that many A Tier musicians playing for you like that? His music is amazing but surely he must have been an amazing, charismatic person too.

    i've first heard of him in madlib's 2nd quasimoto album 'the further adventures of lord quas' and later in various kingtubby compilations. not sure, if on madlib's 'blunted in the bombshelter' mixtape, but only a few weeks ago have i fallen in love with his music. a true prophet who had understood and preached the christian way by travel and enduring hardship, imho.
    mush love from bavaria, thank you very much for this detailed video.

    I definitely think Yabby You is one of the best in Reggae if not the best. The Jesus Dread compilation is great. I accidentally bought two of the same volume of it on vinyl. Whoops! Still need the first volume. Lots of good Yabby You releases. I would also like to see a Tappa Zukie video pleae. and more 😂

    For fans like myself (in the UK) it's worth giving credit to the label 'Blood & Fire' ,that from the mid 90s reissued hard to find classic recordings like 'Prophesy of Dub' , 'Deliver me from my enemies' & the incredible 47 track compilation 'Jesus Dread '72-'77 ' .....& although they stopped trading around 15 years ago 'Pressure Sounds' have helped keep the music available with Reissues of 'Walls of Jerusalem ' , 'Conquering Lion ' ,'Beware Dub' & various compilations ....

    Bless in the name of Santiago Mejor, RAS. i must say, if he read the Bible so much he'd know HIM fulfilled all Revelations 19 (except that last verse, 😉 thats for ini to fulfill 🤙). HIM as real as Jesus, i know. Bless the Ethiopian Orthodox Church. " He has a Name written on HIM that no one knows but HIMself" Revelations 19. I know He's my friend. ✌️

    I love the Walls of Jerusalem album. It changed my perception of Reggae's relationship to Rastafari and the potential for the doctrine of Rastafarianism to exceed some of the dogmatic issues that perpetuate inequality, between men and women for example....we are all Children of Jah
