Still on the road and dazzling audiences the world over, Toots has formed his own label in attempt to recoup the losses over the years. What is so refreshing about Toots live shows today is that not only do they have such cathartic power, but they offer young people a real, living example of how how a lot of music used to be how Toots still is. It s not culture, it s not reggae. It try to put a lot of hip-hop in it, but real reggae don t have those things. Hip-hop don t belong to Jamaica.
Real reggae is roots, and the rest of what is coming out is branches.
Reggae music always be on top. You have to have something with a gospel feel. It s Roots, Rock, Reggae. The roots - that s what I am.
