Paper man , if what Sandra say is true. Then him is a wolf in sheep clothing then mi Brenda. Then is beta we call him fashion dread u hear sah!!! Well a mama p is at the head so him just a carry out her wishes ,big up Jamaica pon her 50th birth day.
Paper check TVJ site and search for the interview. He says after his father's death he started to grow his locks in rebellion to his father having to cut his locks to keep some job or something like that. At least him more honest than plenty and I personally respect when people tell the truth.
Paper Man the interview was done on January 3 2012 Smile Jamaica. www.televisionjamaica.com/Programmes/SmileJamaica.aspx/Videos/14827 'We should know and not believe'
Well i saw the interview,,at least him speak the trueth about himself,him never once guh a Bobo hill..

Respect and nuff Thanks sister Sandra,each one teach one..

Big up the big woman ,mama p . A 50 years man a run Jamaica,an all them do is carry the country down in dept. Woman know how fi run house ,man no know fi do that yet. Mama p, mi want show them say woman can do a better job.!!!!
Cuban Star, it is going to take more than just being a woman to bring back Jamaica. For years we have been borrowing, I will not be surprised to find out that we don't own this place. It will take the wisest and most spiritual leader to begin to turn things around. Sorry neither Sister P nor any man from both sides have proven to have the type of vision needed for this change.
There are a set of people who believe that they will now start eating oxtail, mutton and chicken. How do you explain to people that don't read that American Airlines had to let go 13,000 workers. The world is in a crisis.
Unuh won't plant up the land, might as well unuh jump pon reggae music because all over the world people just want to sing and dance. SMH
MEy Love the people a jamaica.but simpson miller dont have a clue how to turn things around....PNP WIN BUT JAMAICA LOSE........
Shut up!!!!
SHUT UP!!!!!
TALK YU MINE OK PNP NEVER DO NOTING FI JAMAICA 18 YEARS AND WA WI DA
Weh Portia can duh fi Jamaica now? Leave wi more confused and in debt. Neither JLP or PNP have a clue. Put the prisoners fi guh plant up the fields and stop use tax payer's money fi mine dem. That would be a start. Mek wi work wid weh wi already have.... the land!!!
Our ginger is second to none. And a sure if we spent wi energy thinking about other natural resources rather than praising PNP and JLP, we could figure out something.
OG.NR has received reports that a RJR family fun day held at the Dunrobin Primary School ended abruptly when Dancehall Artiste Predator was upset at being denied stage time at the event yesterday evening. Reports are that the artiste who is known for his single "Mad, Sick, Head no Good", was only allowed to do two songs and when exiting the stage in a rage, he allegedly flung two glass bottles, one of which broke on the stage with splinters injuring a blind female patron and the other bottle hitting a fence. Immediately after the incident the fun day was called off before its scheduled end at 6pm. If you have details post.
Irie you need to update more frequently.
A country can not run without a government so stop talking b.s.,an furdermore these two party's have done a lot in the past 50 years to improve the lives of the people of Jamaica. But the government alone simple can not do it by itself . Loud mouth thing nah work . Ask yourself this QUISTION? What can you for the country ,and not what the country can do for you .look how America big with over 100 million people and they have done it ,so we can do it too.
I HEAR YOU CUBAN BUT 52 STATE TUH 14 PARISH AH BIG DIFFERENCE...
Look at Barbados,Cayman,Bahamas.look how Jamaican females dem a fi a guh deh fi sell and involve in all type a illegal tings and all a get deport,a dat is the difference me see..
Then if America ,is 53 states and Jamaica is not even 1/4 in size of one of these states. And the amount of natural resources that Jamaica has ,there seem to be no creative ideas to developed those resources into a productive sector , so we could buy less gas to operate ..government offices, factorys, home ,schools, hospitals ,and businesses. Jamaica has two of the important source of energy ,that 100 degree sun shine ,and water in abundance. but education is also key if we are to move forward put more emphasis on education so the entire country is literate ...then we will respect each other more. people would have less crime to think about ,because education and productivity would take its place.
SOUND GOOD.HAVE NO time Fe TALK Poltricks.but civic,jamaica just vote the education minster..If one, notice how smooth the election run.I gave MR Hooliness the credit for that.If one deal with things smooth you will get things smooth if yu deal with it on war boat you get a war boat in return.EDUCATION EDUCATION EDUCATION EDUCATION.WE NEED TO EDUCATE THE MASSIVE.
I meant jamaica just vote out the education minister
If we has a people don't start now when we ever going too, I have to talk politics because that's what going to make Jamaica better for one and all. Instead of tearing down each other ,let channel that energy to something positive and work as a unit to lift Jamaica to new grounds , but let's start by showing respect for each other first. Jamaica is a small place and we can do this,for our future generation blessed.
the rasta boy da wa trim all awe artis bun fire pon foggat them promote gay

About IRIE FM

The station officially went on air on August 1, 1990. Reggae in the morning, Reggae in the evening, Reggae in the night was the cry. Critics said it was impossible to sustain a 24-hour Reggae music station. In fact, so strong was the impact, it proved that this format was something the Jamaican public yearned for. The 'little station that could' got all media houses in Jamaica to stand up and take note.
