I remember first learning this news nearly right after it happened. I was shocked and I'm so grateful I got to see them live before he left. UB40 really can't be the same without Ali Campbell, but I'll continue to watch both him and the band and to be a supporter of all of them. I must say I'm pleasently surprised at hearing his voice in speech. It sounds way deeper than when he sings. Strange how some singers can do that so well. He's really got a signature voice. Peace and love!

I could never understand why was he doing calibration with other artist what was all that about ? I dont know whether it was a lack of confidence on his part to bring in other celebrity singers in, in order to promote his new album. I think his first solo concert tours did not sell well as expected. and now in the present Ali is using UB40 name as his own band at the disgust of his former Ex band members so now we have a two UB40''s bands, its kind of funny really verging on the absurd. Personally I feel Ali made the choice to leave the band to do his own thing musically. Its like having a divorce because you cant stand your partner but you still want to live in the same house that your shared.

You now no longer talk to any of your brothers, you didn’t go to either of your parents funerals and let’s be honest the career path you thought was going to happen never really took off did it and your brothers and the rest of UB40 are still going strong which is testimony to the music of THE BAND and NOT down to any one person. I’ve had the honor of seeing UB40 in its original format three times plus I’ve witnessed the band without you and I’ve seen the UB40 which you currently perform with and let’s just say I know which version is far better it goes without saying. Life is really too short Ali and the music of UB40 will be there forever but the foundation and the heart of the original band has long since died. Pick up the phone Ali and work it out with ALL of your brothers in the band and bring the magic back, now that would be very special indeed.

Say what what you wnat about the quality of the covers there ain't too may tits who'd do that for as many ppl as they they have.

skanker1000 it's true the original writer and singer for Kingston Town was there for the recording and finally got his royalties for the song. People get confused about UB40, most of their albums are original material, it's only the Labour Of Love album series that are tribute covers.

Hasn't worked out like he thought it would has it? He keeps changing his tune and thinks he is UB40. He left because he thought he'd have a successful solo career, when that didn't happen he trys to call himself UB40, even though he left the band. They carried on with his older brother on vocals. He walked out of the band. They might not be the band that they was but to me its obvious that Robin's side of the story is the real one.

The basis of the Catholic faith is love and forgiveness according to the Catholics. Im so glad that I am one of the very few Black blokes in the U.K that is NOT a Catholic. However, if what the Catholics state about their religion is true, then the Campell brothers should settle their bitter feud as that's what their Catholic faith teaches them. After all, the entire Campbell family lived and breathed two things - ROMAN CATHOLICISM and REGGAE MUSIC. Personally I dont care about Roman Catholicism - but they should use both their love of their faith and the love of their music to unite together. Incidently, they kept religion out of their music which was a wise choice. I hope they all re-unite again as Astro went off with Ali - so the split was even worse than Robin is telling you. As for their Catholic faith, I think that both Blacks and Whites can take their Catholic religion and shove it up their backside. I will say exactly the same about other organised religions too. They are all nonsense - but sometimes certain types of nonsense can be used in a tactical way to bind people together as long as those people share a common objective.

You loved ones can’t mean that much to you. Get a grip snowflake.
ali the mannn
ALI COME BACK MAN BIG G WALTHAMSTOW
Ali campbell IS,WAS and will ALWAYS be UB40!!!!
if ub40 got back together they'd get rich and just put all this management crap behind themselves for the love of the music they make, the fans who love them and if its money they want, there's plenty to be had. JUST GET BACK TOGETHER - its called forgiveness Ali and UB40. if God forgave you , why can't you forgive eachother?
i thought Ali was the management !
UB40 today are just a tribute band to the band they was in the 80's with Ali Campbell

ali campbell tu musica me gusta mucho sigue aaaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiiii ub 40 TE AMO AAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
@dazuk37 I used to think exactly the same way, but i met them flying back from JA after sunsplash, and I asked them about the all the covers and they explained to me that they did the covers to get the royalty payments to those old old reggae artists who got ripped off by the producers of times. Say what what you wnat about the quality of the covers there ain't too may tits who'd do that for as many ppl as they they have.

skanker1000 it's true the original writer and singer for Kingston Town was there for the recording and finally got his royalties for the song. People get confused about UB40, most of their albums are original material, it's only the Labour Of Love album series that are tribute covers.
Ub40 love them when young love them when old, how you allow others to poison the mind and ruin a good thing tear up a family, gutted...
Wagwan!!
@pocahangun why do like ali cambell
Its a real shame,UB40 as the whole original group were sensational. Maybe if Ali had not fried his brains on drugs he would of had the sense to sack the management, lets face it it was Ali's unique voice that gave UB 40 that edge.
Best voice..But all the brothers are talented to be fair.No ali no ub40
go bk ali 2 ub40. love u anyway
what a shame really, your voice is UB40 :(
ali campbell dropping a cinchilla jacket mans flossing. no ali no ub40 simples.
of course UB40 are wicked alirocksmyworld, but ali is still the voice on the new album. now michael virtue has gone as well, it wont be long before they all retire. i own every song they have ever done, and have seen them live 24 times, but now is the time to retire. its all of them, or nothing.
Stewart Lee has let himself go.
No Ali no ub40 period.
there all bitter and arguing over money, how pathetic, Ali campbells is a big head and up himself, time to call it a day, well past sell by date
@8haiden Yeah bob marley's my long lost brother come on
Ali is ub40
lol he does doesnt he?
lol trolls ..... ali is and always will be the voice of ub40 hes brothers are old wonnabes who wouldnt know family loyalty if it bit em on the face ali did the right thing walking away from ppl who are snakes and getting on with hes own life and amazing singing career and all u haters will just have to hate lol

Weird ... one of my favourite bands of all time.
Hasn't worked out like he thought it would has it? He keeps changing his tune and thinks he is UB40. He left because he thought he'd have a successful solo career, when that didn't happen he trys to call himself UB40, even though he left the band. They carried on with his older brother on vocals. He walked out of the band. They might not be the band that they was but to me its obvious that Robin's side of the story is the real one.
helll...yea...ub40 aynt nothing without ali...sooo..ima stick to the old school...if it wasnt for ali campbell there wouldn't no ub40...
The basis of the Catholic faith is love and forgiveness according to the Catholics. Im so glad that I am one of the very few Black blokes in the U.K that is NOT a Catholic. However, if what the Catholics state about their religion is true, then the Campell brothers should settle their bitter feud as that's what their Catholic faith teaches them. After all, the entire Campbell family lived and breathed two things - ROMAN CATHOLICISM and REGGAE MUSIC. Personally I dont care about Roman Catholicism - but they should use both their love of their faith and the love of their music to unite together. Incidently, they kept religion out of their music which was a wise choice. I hope they all re-unite again as Astro went off with Ali - so the split was even worse than Robin is telling you. As for their Catholic faith, I think that both Blacks and Whites can take their Catholic religion and shove it up their backside. I will say exactly the same about other organised religions too. They are all nonsense - but sometimes certain types of nonsense can be used in a tactical way to bind people together as long as those people share a common objective.
sux now coz ali don't sing with da ub40 anymore. ub40 best raggae band
Swear they lost all there money through signing it all over somehow unsure tho
UB40 ARE the management, they all make decisions on an equal ground, they own their own label, they own their own studios (2 x 48 track digital mixers)... shall I go on? Ali you are a bullshitter and a dreamer, you are getting fat, you're bank balance won't be !, I saw the rest of the band in December last year and they have bounced back larger than ever. They have gone from strong to stronger and the whole crowd welcomed Duncan with open arms... Poor show Ali... Dream on!

ngoziroots Bullshit. It's a karaoke band now. Robin should have listened to his brother and kept it tight.
@HawaiiRampageEX Shame on you man!
A raccoon died to bring you Ali’s coat.
Strange that Ali sells less tickets than the band HE left behind... I saw them last week and they are great and love what they are doing. Ali is nothing less than a lying person.
