its been a while i've noticed this even with the so called "new dance" there are dance's from hip hop and techno style that i'd of dun back in the day an are brand new ting outta yaad, mi dancer fren dem shock i can do them so well but i've been doing them for years, dancehall music is always changing remember wen it was called bashment...
but i do think we need some original beats an dance's

True true gamepun lol mi kno all bout kool herc, mi even play hurricane riddim fi dem and they instantly knew is jamaican. I liked it back then, when mi a likkle yute ah run up and down di streets and yuh kno seh 1 adi eldas dem ah come anna buss some bass tune inna dem car. All wake up ppl ah night lmao miss thoughs days, good times yo. Yuh right still, they recycle alot and like u said "pro-tools". thats all we using lol but see is the producers making the beats, it could be coincidence but all of it is in their hands.

I can't blame Stephen still cause he's my age (well two months olda) and we all grew up on the same influence but atleast him versatile wit his music! di man create brand new original beats more then most, the only two other producers making it hot are don corleon and i hate to say....not nice....his beats won't last tho but they have a bounce to them and are original.

too much integration and crossover. basically dun to get the dancehall music on the american market
