Unfair and Honest Review of Damian Marley show
by MonaWrites on 10/23/17The Belasco Theater - Los AngelesIf you've ever listened to this man's lyrics you'd understand that it's not just feel good and dance music. He gives us the much-needed food for thought, leads us to stand up for what is good and melodic guidance to stand in our personal and righteous truths. Like Marvin Gaye who asked us "What's Going on?" and sang the woes of the "Troubled Man," ALL of Damian's song speaks to the greater parts of you and dares you to stand up in that. Yes, of course, he's gorgeous and of course, he sounds AMAZING, the production on this album is superior and he could EASILY be compared to some of the greatest rap lyrists and poets of our time, but it's also important music. Nail Pon Cross is a warning and Jamrock is the beloved ode to his home Jamaica, encouragement from songs like Road to Zion and the tease of being allowed to shampoo those beautiful locks from Beautiful are why he is special, a fine piece of mind and a pleasure to watch. Thank you, Damian and Belasco Theater for allowing me to double the pleasure!! A fan since 1992, my review is unfair because I think so highly of him and even after meeting him once, his kindness and aura surpasses what I've imagined...
