ting. That was a big thing in the music business. I have a new album weh I work pon right now call 'Reggae Is My Cup Of Tea', is I Prince Far I, you know. And an album with Reggae George, 'Reggae Is My Name'. It re-corded already. I don't say I really want to produce another man from Reggae George, but right now for me, how I really see it, Reggae George is a great singer, a good singer, but peo-ple hiding Reggae George from the scene. But how long can they hide a good man? A king really never get him praised where he come from, you know, him always get it out there. Is true. I need a good company to put it out. Have no fight against Trojan, but music business gets so expensive that the money I man really lay up all a album, it no really worthwhile doing a album, ca if you come in and see the position of music business, how it really run... Music business expensive busi-ness, is some people really un- derestimate the business. But I know reggae business is one of the biggest business in the world, you know what I mean? I don't have anything else really live off from I am around 17 till now I'm 38, is music business I have been dealing with from those ages coming on, under-stand? When you do an album it really cost you a lot a money, ca sometimes it take you a year to do an album, a good album, you know. A lot of cash and a lot of funds. So, any company willing to give me some good money, and these rowed up, well it's quite likely ca is three album really: one with Reggae George, one with me and a dub album. Always have a series of dub al-bums, at all times.
   Well, I have a lot of product otherwise with Adrian Sher-wood from England on the On-U Sounds label. He used to op-erate a label call Hitrun. His best selling artist always Prince Far I. He put out my material since 6, 7, 8 years. Like 'Dub To Africa', 'Crytuff Dub Chapte 1' and a lot of discomix. It was me who bring Adrian in the business, real recording business I mean. Those man respect certain little thing, you know. Right now in Japan there is a big sale out by Prince Far I again in reggae busi-ness, and all those reggae music coming through Adrian Sher-wood. From London to Japan, you know. I mostly have a large

selling market over Europe Like Germany, Holland, Switzer-land, even Scotland and those places.
   Economically still, when any company layout the first money, upfront money, is like the record don't reach go up back that money, that they lay out. The record may take five years and the money you finally get from an album is outdated completely. You spend 10-12,000 dollars to make an album and when you go up your com-pany you get 2000 pounds for an album. That's sin, wicked-ness, you know. But through fe certain people fe go up there and give a company ten album for certain amount of moneys, and the company don't respect certain man material, different look from that man material. You have material is greater than material. Through fe cer-tain man fe go there with certain ideas by giving them all ten al-bums for certain amount of money, they won't deal with you the same way and that is not really the record business. Every man speaks for hisself, no man can speak for you. You must have to speak for yourself. Right now I find reggae music business like certain people is biased. When I say biased, like certain people don't come to the back and speak the truth. The man who really is the mas-sive, the people them call upon at all times to reel up their reg-gae music. Every time I work an-ywhere at all has always been a good standout, anywhere in for-eign countries. Out here in the radio station is like you have to pay. The radio station people play all the products with all cer-tain singer ca certain singer not singing no reality songs, some-thing to teach the people the right from wrong. I man now say whether you black or whether you white, open up your eyes and you see Jah light, because Jah light is a light that shines bright. A whole heap a actor and singer weh I see can't work I like when Prince Far I singing. The whole of Europe know that. Is a different image complete. People same anytime they see me pon stage anywhere. So what I really want in this music business is level vibes. And the vibes must be good. So I and I can feel the vibes and put cer-tain works forward, that the people can hear what I Prince Far I a deal with.
