You know seh reggae influence the grime
One a talk one a mix one a sing
One of them are selector one of them spin
Dj a juggle like a sound system and the mc a bubble and a ride the Riddim
And the lyrical war and the clashing ting and the haul and pulling and the rewinding
And the way them a mix and the vinyl thing ,Reggae music influencing
Can"t say there"s no influence

And it"s no accident some talk with Jamaican accent

Mi no seh reggae is the only influence
But in a England in the UK it make a difference
That Caribbean English experience
Is a very important ingredient
Cause this is funky funky house them a say from the US coast
Funky funky house ok hear me out
Some say it"s a American beat and a juggle and bubble and a move them feet
Some say Caribbean beat and them a juggle and a bubble and a move them feet
Reggae bring jungle and start this UK scene
Everything come after seen get what i mean
Everyday them have a different name no matter what it is today
Cause if it wasn"t for the reggae for the reggae for the reggae would there be UK funky

The big one nowadays is Dubstep
From you seh dub you take it from reggae
From you seh dub you haffi big up King Tubby
Sometimes them say a dubstep but a still reggae
Them change a little drum but the reggae still di deh
