Dub FX - Is this guy a candidate for the official musician of ATS?

A live busking video of this guy - Dub FX - somehow ended up in my YouTube feed. I listened a couple of times and was impressed by his technique, though the style didn't really appeal to me. However, I finally bounced over to his channel and I was impressed by what I saw - more what he had to say than the way he said it, though his style is oddly appealing. He's a mix of reggae, hip-hop, and electronic rave type stuff and I am shocked that I like him. (I'm an old guy though my musical tastes are markedly eclectic.)

But, like I said, it's the message in many of his songs that really gets me. This one is a riff off of the theme of John Carpenter's They Live.

Nice! I love it! (Message too)

Thats very similar to Majer Lazrer, which I am also a big fan of. Sounds like he may be from Bahamas or Cayman Islands, or somewhere in the Caribbean.

Thank you for the plug though!

Actually, he from Austrailiam, though his accent sounds - to me, at least - a little Afrikaans.

Yeah thanks very good message

Not bad, but I would have to say the musical style is not going to be everyone's cup of tea.

Thanks for sharing this, though!

The theme and the sunglasses are a ripoff of an older movie called "They Live".

Good music in regard to the OP

yup, and he said so right in the OP. I still think the alley fight is one of the 10 best scenes in all of Hollywood history.

Saw him live in Amsterdam 2 years ago, Theory of Harmoy tour. He blew the crowd away.
