Ska is a form of Jamaican music which began as early as the 1930s. Combining elements of traditional mento and calypso with an American jazz and rhythm and blues sound, it was a precursor in Jamaica to rocksteady and later reggae. It is the predominant form of music listened to by Rudeboys, and is also popular with Mods, and Skinheads.

A few third wave ska bands for ya.

Not really a fan of ska. I guess I could listen to it if I was really in the mood but it sounds like cheap pop music to me most the time.

I love some ska. Seen a few local ska bands that fucking rocked. However, just like all genres of music, there are bad bands in there. But for the most part, I dig it homie.

Since when did you need a reason. Just do what comes natural.


Mike, I am claiming that man as my own. I shall call him Jerome Nelson, and he shall be my sea-faring, corn-picking pet.
