Ladies and Gentle Man, please applaud Mr David Radigan. This man support the music and the Culture 💯 %. Radigan I hope you have a Museum so other Reggae lover and Followers have a place to visit.
This interview could have gone on for four hours and I wouldn’t even flinch. I just love how he lays his passion for the music out like that. Respect Mr. Rodigan.
So very funny that right when I read that comment, Rodigan hits an “um” at 20:42 😭 but all joking aside, you’re definitely correct. I noticed how well spoken he is off the cuff all morning (been on a deep rodigan dive lol)
Congratulations Mr. Rodigan on your acknowledgement by the Jamaican Government for the award of Order of Distinction. Your work with Jamaica's music, it's history, & it's heritage will never go down unnoticed because you are not a Jamaican, not from Jamaica, and yet you devote your life to their culture. You pushed Reggae music to some places where Jamaican music is seen as Rebel Music. You converted the protesters into lovers of this Art form; A message of peace and prosperity. You opened the eyes of the British, our very own Slave Masters to see, hear and understand the pain we carry as descendants of Slavery; to listen to the heart of African people, and to hear the hope we have For our own people & as a Society. Many have fell in love with us the Jamaican people thanks to you. It was not your business to do, but you made a job out if it... & A living. We are happy it worked out for you. We are grateful for the work you have done "WITH" reggae music & the Jamaican culture.. No.. We don't care what amount you did for Reggae Music.. What we care about is what you did with it!!! You fell in love with it. You came here to study it & You grew along with it. You brought it home, & you packaged it & sold it delightfully and gracefully. & The market keeps growing. What's most Honorable about you is that you constantly CREDIT THE CREATORS.. You constantly highlight, educate, and promote the history & development of the music. "Names, Times, Places, People, Labels, etc etc " you always tell about them. Very strange of a Foreigner. Very strange of a "White man".. I have never heard the term "Rodigans Reggae"... But I hear Studio 1, Drumilee Avenue, etc. All thanks to you. THANK YOU SO MUCH MR. DAVID RODIGAN.. Please accept this award in honor of Mighty Crown, Sentinel, and all the other Sound Systems from the farther end if the world, who has seen your work & believed that they could do it too. We also appreciate them very much.

This is incredible to watch, I would really love to pick Rodigan’s brain and try to understand what it was really like to experience some of the stuff he has experienced. One of the things I love about Rodigan is the dubs that he possesses and the knowledge he has of the scene. It’s amazing. Rodigan is a true legend of the scene and also a legend of all the genres of music that have evolved from reggae music
Never stop what you do. I've listened to you for 10 plus year and have never got bored. The man, the music, the legend here's to another 40 years of David Rodigan 🤘🔥💯
I had my 21 in Gossip’s David Rodigan allowed me in the club for free and I got a bottle of Champagne wonderful night and a friend was preforming that night 💯💯💯🙏🏾🙏🏾
David Rodigan just very pleasant.just listen to all the iconic raggae musicians he encountered with and done interviews. My favorite tin of Rodigan is the history he can give b4 playing the song..Respect to you sir..
Nice 👌 interview David Raddingon 👍 I remembered listening to you and Barry G,it was one of the biggest radio 📻 show in the world I would say back then. Most Jamaicans people was looking 👌 forward to the clashed with you and Barry G,every Saturday night 🌙. I would say for a white man 👨🦳, he is really good with the reggae music. He knows all the top reggae singers in Jamaica 🇯🇲, and the people useto love Barry G and Raddigon.I useto respect him a lot because he was apart of the culture, he was all over the country. Big up yourself David Raddigon,I useto up in Sheffield listening to the reggae music.
Can I ask how you feel about the criticism that David Rodigan now gets from some people that he is some sort of culture vulture? They say he is appropriating Jamaican culture. I find it sad as he seems so full of respect for the genre.
@@tonyska Knows David Radigan and he is very cool 😎, I heard some Jamaicans that is living in England 🇬🇧 is. Talking 👄 their nonsensical arguments about David Radigan, and I don't believed they are saying about the reggae music industry. Most of them does not know the intricacies about the history of the Jamaican music at all, because Radigan and Barry G is the two most exciting guys. Who carries the reggae music industry to higher heights, than anyone of them that is living in England 🇬🇧. I useto in England for a while and, my father went to England 🇬🇧 in 1957. Millie Small was one of the first Jamaican with her song ,my boy lollipop 🍭. I useto looked forward on Saturday night for Radigan and Barry G clash,I heard some Jamaicans in England 🇬🇧 is claiming. That they are bigger than Barry G, but not in my book. Radigan is beloved in Jamaica, he is like a king 🤴. I don't believed that anyone in Jamaica would want to hurt David Radigan at all, he is a house hold name in Jamaica. I am almost 70years now, and my uncle was a musician from the days of mento. Before all Bob Marley and companies was born, the man who really started the music industry in Jamaica. Before Bob Marley Alton Ellis, John Holt just to named a few of them is. His name was Vere John migrated from Jamaica 🇯🇲 in 1924 to New York city in the United States and, got involved into the music industry. By having talent contests show recruiting people to sing, and he returned to Jamaica in 1939 and. Continued with his 👋 talent contests show, and he found John Holt, Millie Small, Bob Marley, Alton Ellis. He useto have a show on RJR radio station name the Vere John opportunities show, he died in 1966.So anyone of them you hearing them talking 👄 about the history of the reggae music industry. Just asked them if they know who is Vere John opportunities show, who returned to Jamaica in 1939 from the United States and. Started his talent contests show, before Bob Marley and companies was born, Bob Marley was born in 1945. There is a lot of information, I could tell you. But let it stay until another time ok 👌 Tony Ska, are living in England 🇬🇧 or Jamaica 🇯🇲. I am living in the United States 👍 ok 👌
@@blairboyd5617 Thank you so much for your quick reply. I've just quickly looked up Vere John and can see the contribution he has made and paved the way for future artists. I am a middle aged white man in the UK and so I can't pretend to know how David Rodigan is received in Jamaica. I believe Jamaican people could easily spot a fraud or someone who is not genuine in their love of Reggae. I grew in the UK in the 70s and 80s and fell in love with the Ska revival of The Specials, Selector, The Beat. It brought unity to the youth when others tried to divide us. From there my love spread across to Reggae and the music David Rodigan was playing. Reggae music to me is about bringing people together.
@@tonyska As I told I you,I don't talk what I don't know. I was born and grow up in Jamaica 🇯🇲 and, the community where I was born. There was white people living there, the Queen of England 🇬🇧. Her aunt useto come by the community where I was born, the aunt name Princess 👸 Alice and. The people them who she was staying with they were family from England 🇬🇧 name the Michelin, I know the Queen 👸 sister Princess Margaret 👸. I saw her in 1962 August 6th independence day in Jamaica 🇯🇲,because the queen was pregnant with a baby. I know a lot of those singers from in 1960s, John Holt, Millie Small, Bob Marley, Desmond Decker, Toots and the maytals, Peter Tosh, Bunny Wailers, Gregory Issac, Errol Dunkley,Ken Booth, Ken Parker, Alton Ellis, Dennis Brown, Dobby Dobson, Roy Shirley, Slim Smith, Delroy Wilson, Jimmy Riley, Max Romeo, Jacob Miller, Horace Andy,Ernest Smith, Prince Buster, Derrick Morgan, Judy Motta, Maria Griffiths, Nora Dean, Rita Marley, Horace Andy,Junior Byles,DJS Machukie, King 🤴 Stitch, UROY, I Roy,Dennis Alcapone, Big Youth. These are the 1960s DJS them, the rest of them come after. I can give tons of information 💁♀️, like sound system from way back, man 👨 like King Tubbys Hi-fi power sound system, the greatest sound system ever in Jamaica 🇯🇲. So when you hear 👂 anyone of them is talking 👄 about sound system, they cannot compared to King Tubbys Hi-fi power sound system. He is the one who created Dubs,for sound system. He has his own studio 🎙, I know in 1968 when UROY was dj for him ok 👌.
Just know that we love you too already gone and we appreciate you so hard to hear you are given to us you’re not just a friend and not just a person you are a Jamaican no question about it one love one heart one destiny that’s all you are David Ragan can never be another person like you
Fascinating, insightful and very interesting interview. His love and passion for reggae music is evident fro the way he narrates his story. Oh and he mentioned co presenting shows with Tony Williams in the early days. Must have been fantastic shows these.
Rodigan has a real passion for the music and the culture. He was revolutionary in the bad times of the 80s when black people had no hope, the music give them freedom.
I do remember the early days with Black Londoners Show with Steve Barnard and Tony Williams and Rodigan , and was so excited the night that Greg Edwards Soul Spectrum on Capital, Came on the Mike and Said we are introducing Roots Rockers Show and i remembered that he played the Michael Prophet Dub of False Teachings , while i was listening with my cassette player on Pause at home , indeed revolutionary times
I think Jamaica shud honor this man in a special way before he dies. David Rodigan never had to fall in love with Reggae or Jamaican music. But he did. His skin color never ever mattered to him when playing these painful slave cultured music. I think he shud be honored by the Jamaican Government.. He is a true Angel sent by God to help Jamaican people rise out of bondage. Yes, this white guy goes around the world promoting Jamaicans, and not himself
The record shop at the Model Market in Lewisham. Omg that’s taking me back lol. Model Market doesn’t exist anymore - it’s a place where they now sell overpriced “street food” gentrified style.
Dubwise Rodigan, seen. We love you. Look I want to meet you one day soon. Someone needs to make it happen, we need to link soon. JAH bless.🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲❤️💛💚🙏🏿✊🏿👊🏿🎤🎤🎤
That old-school training is good. Kids need it today, the music is too screech. Not passionate like the originals. Big up Farda Rodi and all who helped bridge the gap. Remember most UK labels had a Craven Park Road address, Harlesden.

SALUTE!!!
This interview could have gone on for four hours and I wouldn’t even flinch. I just love how he lays his passion for the music out like that. Respect Mr. Rodigan.
You can tell he's trained in old-school radio, because there's not a spare word. To the point. No ums and ars. Clear thoughts articulated.
Wow didnt even clock til you pointed it out. Great comment.
So very funny that right when I read that comment, Rodigan hits an “um” at 20:42 😭 but all joking aside, you’re definitely correct. I noticed how well spoken he is off the cuff all morning (been on a deep rodigan dive lol)
Same as Robbie Vincent on the soul scene... Old skool radio skills class...
Only watched 1 minute and I heard the first um 🤣
Large Up *David Rodigan!*
This man just makes me smile. So immersed in Caribbean culture but still authentic British. Yuh badman missa rodigan
Congratulations Mr. Rodigan on your acknowledgement by the Jamaican Government for the award of Order of Distinction.
Your work with Jamaica's music, it's history, & it's heritage will never go down unnoticed because you are not a Jamaican, not from Jamaica, and yet you devote your life to their culture.
You pushed Reggae music to some places where Jamaican music is seen as Rebel Music.
You converted the protesters into lovers of this Art form; A message of peace and prosperity.
You opened the eyes of the British, our very own Slave Masters to see, hear and understand the pain we carry as descendants of Slavery; to listen to the heart of African people, and to hear the hope we have
For our own people & as a Society.
Many have fell in love with us the Jamaican people thanks to you.
It was not your business to do, but you made a job out if it... & A living.
We are happy it worked out for you.
We are grateful for the work you have done "WITH" reggae music & the Jamaican culture..
No..
We don't care what amount you did for Reggae Music..
What we care about is what you did with it!!!
You fell in love with it. You came here to study it & You grew along with it.
You brought it home, & you packaged it & sold it delightfully and gracefully.
& The market keeps growing.
What's most Honorable about you is that you constantly CREDIT THE CREATORS..
You constantly highlight, educate, and promote the history & development of the music.
"Names, Times, Places, People, Labels, etc etc " you always tell about them.
Very strange of a Foreigner.
Very strange of a "White man"..
I have never heard the term "Rodigans Reggae"...
But I hear Studio 1, Drumilee Avenue, etc.
All thanks to you.

David Rodigan never had to fall in love with Reggae or Jamaican music. But he did.
His skin color never ever mattered to him when playing these painful slave cultured music.
I think he shud be honored by the Jamaican Government..
He is a true Angel sent by God to help Jamaican people rise out of bondage.
Yes, this white guy goes around the world promoting Jamaicans, and not himself

The record shop at the Model Market in Lewisham. Omg that’s taking me back lol. Model Market doesn’t exist anymore - it’s a place where they now sell overpriced “street food” gentrified style.
One of the greatest things about Rodigan is that he never felt the need to rock a Jafaikin accent. He just dropped the music and was himself
Exactly
