    Gotta take the good with the bad even with these two absolute legends. Dennis Brown is my top and Gregory right behind. I love them both and despite their shortfalls their works are still highly praised to this day.

    Gregory and Dennis produced some of reggae's most incredible music. Years later you are here trying to tarnish their image. We remember their music not their addiction. Desist from your obsession with tearing down these reggae artists.

      Creating awareness about drug addiction and it's effects on society by example is not mearnt to tarnish their name but a lesson to the youth and everyone doing drugs. We don't learn The mistake, we learn from the mistake.

    I think it is disgraceful too look at one Aspect of a person when it is More than evident that there are so much More than that ! in retrospect I like too focus on the work that says much more than any form of gossip could isn't useful in any way at All . They are Great Artist and shell Remain so . Other issues shouldn't be allowed to define them as people . NONE I believe are perfect I KNOW That But they music is truly Beautiful and that is what speaks of their talent an that out shines out from them in truth making them only merely more Human . by way of understanding. its not of interest too Me to degrade a person Alive or dead for mistakes made . As that isn't how I choose too Remember them that being unjustifiable and wrong in so many ways . Not just too them but there family's . I look apon them with upmost animation and Respect for the joy that they have given us an shared with their music simply.

      Your feedback is well noted. But there's absolutely no point beautifying the truth. It's what it is. Here (Reggae Gist Xtra), we endeavors merely to disseminate unbiased and balanced information and entertainment to all. Nuff Respek, Ras Dennis.

      @superlipsx Jamie, CRACK 💎 and COCAINE ARE DISGRACEFUL ! What DRUGS does that destroys millions of families and lives, because of ADDICTION, are disgraceful .
      - Your comment serves NO purpose of healing or learning here. As a Caribbean woman & someone who has had thousands of interactions with youths especially, this video serves as a SERIOUS reminder to STAY AWAY from hard DRUGS, as you would most likely end up DEAD !

      At the end of the day. These great artists died from complications relating to drug abuse. This doesnt take away from their talent beacuse they are true legends. We need to stopped hiding thing and tell the truth about the dangers of negative influences. This can only support the younger generation to avoid things which can shortened their lives.
