You might be saying "Why the fuck is Danny bringing up a pop rapper from 1993 in the underground section?".... well, first I've done crazier, and second, I used to love this guy. I was only in like sixth grade when his album came out, and I fell in love a long time ago. So recently I decided to get his old album, and take a walk through my past loves in hip hop.

I learned a few things during this walk into my past; My past taste in music will never change (If it's good, I will still like it), Snow DOES really speak Patois (Otherwise known "Patwa"), and he is NOT a hip hop artist, he is REALLY a reggae singer.

He is still working in the business, true to his ROOTS, which are: He fell passionately in love with Reggae and at a young age was determined to learn the language. For a white guy from Canada, he is pretty good. Some of his updated works (no idea how new) can be found on his myspace:

The site is still very updated, however literature on this artist is pretty rough to dig up on the net.

Oh, and for humor. Jim Carrey did a parody of Snow's "Informer" video. "Imposter" can be found here:

he's a huge fairly popular force in the reggae community...we've got him for a festival in mid July.

Wow, I never really considered him as reggae, well actually I never really knew if he was a singer, rapper, etc. His songs are sick though, from the past.. Heard a couple.. I remember one song, "Angel" DOPEEE.. Video is jokes with bubbles in the begining from Trailer Park Boyz. Latest shit i heard from him was a song with B-Lo.. So Sweet, nice song still.
