Marcia and Busy keeping a real 'buss'



( L - R ) Busy Signal, Marcia Griffiths - File

In this weekly 'Mus' Buss Caan Buss' song review feature, three musical minds will analyse each song and 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 mus' buss/caan buss team will be reviewing Marcia Griffiths and Busy Signal's Keeping It Real.
