In the '70s when Joseph Hill was singing as a kid I use to listen but thought he was a second tier to the more popular Bob and others at the time. But when "What a Rib Bamba Yeah, When the Two Sevens Clash" dropped, all dancehall and roots lovers got hysterical -- it was a mighty good time in terms of music. Some expected some horrible things to happen in 1977 due to this foreboding song (nothing happened). This song elevated culture (Hill) because before this he was singing regular culture like Burning Spear and few others that sound the same while Bob's well oiled wailing machine was churning out rebel and prophetic music that differentiates them. So culture came to prominence in my mind really that year. BTW, slackness or x-rated lyrics started to permeate the genre/dancehall, so real Rasta like Bob, Bunny, & Peter;, Culture, Spear and others came to be known as culture lyrics (roots, Jah, naturality, respect for their women , no violence, love their wife or girlfriend (aka queen) and Love).
Peace and Love Brother, Peace Love.
RIP mi idrin, Brother Joseph.
