ROOTZ rockin' reggae



Rootz Underground - Contributed

Today THE STAR continues the hugely popular Mus Buss column. In this weekly song review feature, three musical minds with different tastes will analyse each song and will grade it on vocal ability, lyrics, musical arrangement and appeal. Songs that make the grade will be dubbed 'Mus Buss', while songs that flop they will be dumped in the 'Caan Buss' bin.

The three reviewers welcome feedback from the artistes and the public about the column. Send your comments to bussdem@hotmail.com or mail in your songs to 'Mus Buss' at the Gleaner Company, 7 North Street, Kingston. This week the muss buss/cyaan buss team will be reviewing Rootz Underground's Hammer.
