Welcome to regga chat Global an extra special special edition and as you can see we’re in the kitchen with two icons here we have the one and only Ry price AKA Bon Killa yell 15 years he hasn’t been here so we thought he only right that he comes in
The kitchen and of course Lis we knew him as baby Shan back in the day comment it’s great to have you on reg chat Global let’s let’s just skate over you know the ’90s because there’s no two ways about it the ’90s was a phenomenal period for regga music um and it was
There’s a lot of competition nowadays I don’t think there’s a lot of competition but them time there you know give us some of your memories MH well in those days I think everybody was striving for excellence you know so that was the OB objective everybody was just doing their
Ha game and then everybody was working in One Direction them time dance hall had a concept and it had a guideline and it had players who want the music to go places but in the ’90s everybody was working together and working TOS betterment of the music so more collaborative effort used to go
On you understand right now I doubt producer would send a cut of his R to another producer back in the days me and J go over Bobby and want the Mad Dog RH say yes and B and vice versa ja have a really man Jamies want a cut and get a
Cut because everybody was working as a team even if we are in a different crew or a group from you a member of the dance hall fraternity you’re a member of the team my thing in terms of my biggest memory it’s just how the artism used to
Live you know what I mean one of my biggest memory or funest memory seen the St sh the same mic and not it doesn’t look like chaos M it look like well rared but it wasn’t because each of them are so professional they know exactly when to take the mic when
To pass it on used to call it bom Rush yeah bam rush but it it seemed like they had rehearsed every single line you know what I mean it wasn’t I mean you know I was looking at we going to get on obviously to the time bomb EP but you
Was a youth in water o yeah sparring with with Bounty and used to go around jammies I mean what was that like for you I mean you know killer was really on all form that was the that was the greatest feeling for me CU at the time I I was I was
Learning you know what I mean I got the opportunity to go to university without even paying a dollar I was in the the D Studio I was in the the recording room you know what I mean listening every advice that they were giving killer at the time while he was Rec soaking up
Everything learning everything so it’s basically me going to school without paying a dollar you know what I mean and at the same time I had the opportunity to be in two different Jamies and at the same time the next day I would be at penth with mad them and
Watch D Rec teror you name it so it was like school for me how’s the pupil progressed extremely excellent they exceeded to Excellence sham is very very very successful and achieved and develop sham is one of the most developed artists I’ve ever brought to Pro prominence most of the artist that I
Brought some of them Branch off and some of them not so in about the vales that we stand for when we just came all the lesson sham ever learned he uses them and he still has them as part of his moral today all the principles all the professional
Skills you you saw him you know sham is very very rounded properly and even right now sham is a veteran and compare him to the younger generation we don’t even have a better pick than sham for send International right now cuz you have to have the full package you have
To know to carry yourself you have to know how to deal with audience you have to know how to deal with the business you have to know how to present yourself on stage you have to know to present yourself on a interview you got to know the core value of the
Business and most of the younger one they don’t develop most of those qualities as yet they have the skill to go on stage and sing but it takes a little more than that and Sham has the tool B so did you ever record for jammies no I’ve never ever recorded for
Jammies that’s why I’m telling you a lot of people say we on killer link Jamies every day it wasn’t like I was there telling killer you need to talk to King Jamies for me Rec me I was just there learn I knew my time was going to come
And sometime as artist patient like believe should Rec you yeah friend friend Rod tell Rec me never do it at the time know me because at the time and had a better relationship you know I mean but that’s how it was meant to be you know I me you

You know what I mean so here we are 2023 and the time bomb drop now tell us about the time bomb how did that all come around cuz you’re if I’m right you’re based in are you still in Jamaica or you float between Rodney don’t leave okay so tell us how did this whole time bomb project so it was really kill
Know kind of a link need need jugl it me backp juggling people say have no juggling out with Dan will it really to come mother rate me and Sham friendship and Brotherhood see early 90s until 2023 and then it all came because the the whole complaint that people
Complaining about the sounds that coming out of Jamaica so I’m saying it’s not the real thing it’s not sounding like what they used to and it it’s saturated or it’s disposable music all type of complaint until we see we lose the regular CH in of the billboard so
Realize the serious issues is going on till people start say afrob dance Sal spot and them thing that apab don’t take anybody spot AF is just doing their thing and doing it properly dance hall has lose it core essense so it lost its core presence so we decide we want to get
Back Dave Kelly the greatest scientist musically from the ’90s but he decided Well one little juggling two little juggling we need a body of work to commerate B Baby M will collaborative effort for 25 years so we’ve been tiing from 1998 to 2023 so it’s a time now sorry
It’s a Time BB so that’s how the name came up now but the whole thing was to get back a a template to show the people how we should be done and how we can be done to work with infusing all the younger sounds but keeping the feel and
The essence of the original ’90s Vibes so if you listen to the ep the song are nowadays but the field are still Artic Dance all Vibes I think that’s what they’re trying to capitalize and with this new chap song but it’s not coming across like dance all to the people the
Feel it doesn’t feel like it so Dave KY decided we call it the time bomb and there the bomb drops the number one time three times drop shot and that’s Uncle Bob res no we remov Uncle Bob from the any CH moving moving you know what I
Mean and it’s it’s it’s it’s been great you know I mean the fans are supporting a l can C we wouldn’t go to number one the single has been to number one time B since we got here in the UK badman thing featuring Edis Elba has been to number
One also so know that the UK fans are locked in and we haven’t even talked about what I’m saying you know I mean you’re Goods dexs with the biggest female song right now that’s the females an slow motion so we can’t stress more than to
Tell the fans than you know what I mean but we need more to keep on buying yeah we need to buy we need to support that’s all fans problem they be and comment and talk and have conversation but only few of us buy the music you need everybody
To buy the music help dance on the world stage and this project is going to help the world industry in the future to come yes and gentlemen it is the time bomb um um just wrapping up are we going to see you on stage next year I know it’s yes
