I'm an American born Jamaican who got sent back in the late 80s cause.."dem seh mi did bad". I want to say that I got to see Ninja in his prime, when he murdered Cat an Shabba. But Ninja was just getting started. This man should be teaching a class on breath control, stage presence rhythm riding and the like to both rappers and chatters. He is the Michael Jordan of the microphone game. Much respect to Merciless, u can tell he truly studied Ninja an figured out how to beat him with good strategy, like how Max Schmelling beat Joe Louis. Nuff respect Gorgon, front teet gold teet AND SIDE TEET!

We love ninjaman here in n L.A! California ⚔ 🎤

One of my favorite memories in life is being in Jaro studio when Ninja came in to cut dubs for Hammermouth sound, and getting to be in the background chorus on di chune

Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaal badman

Ninja lived dem wicked lyrics 🤷🏽‍♂️

This man should get golden awards for his contributions

No one could beat this man.. Not even super cat! Oh man how could I never heard of this man...

Wonderful video on the Don Gorgon! 25 years is steep sentence. Righteous deeds are better than wicked deeds.

The Greatest stage performer of all time.

Jamaica doesn't have 'provinces'. The has Parishes. Annotto Bay is in the PARISH of St Mary.

Ninjaman built up dance hall and made it more popular than reggae, rocksteady with his lyrical contents. I know him from he walking barefooted to dance halls.

The first time I heard ninja man was in 86 I remember that combination with him and courtney melody what a DJ I had him on jaro dance hall tape🇯🇲🎤🇯🇲👍🏿🔥

I love his role in the movie "Third World Cop"

He helped build dancehall to its present state with his contributons but those that followed brought the lyrical clashes to the streets 🤦🏿‍♂️he cleared the way for most clash artist🤜🏿🤛🏽💯💯🤔

"The Original Front Tooth" can't top that

80&90s Dance Hall was 🔥🔥🔥🔥

The kindness, Dj, in , ja, ninja man

The artists that went to foreign and did cross over mash up dancehall. They water down the music

Mad props for this gem, Thank You!!! I remember back in the day, a new Ninjaman chune come out.....I was glued to the speakers and SO happy!! His lyrical prowess is one of a kind and I'd be smiling ear to ear upon his amazing intro which is also one of a kind!!! Any chance you have or are planning to do a Twinkle Brothers episode?

I don't see any of these DJs during Ninjaman's hey days that can be compared with the Don Gorgon, when it comes to improvisation...and "riding the rhythm like a lizard on limb"!!! Regardless of what one may think of Ninja, not a bwoy cyan test the FRONT TEETH, GOLD TEETH KILLA.....none a dem!

When you achieve the level of success Ninja man had--you must leave that lifestyle behind you--otherwise it drags you down.

Original Don

My deejay that no one has a stage presence like him right from the moment he steps on walking slowly 😂 his clash with Flourgun was also with Redragon so it was two brothers against Ninjaman but they already feared him because I had Flourgun saying they wants hid in the toilet when he just turned up at their sound wanting to clash them 😂 ,another of his clash was with Mad Cobra in 1995 that was really good that’s the first time I saw him getting defeated before the Merciless 2000.

You can't be a fan of dancehall and not understand his success. That's like saying you like money but don't know why people use the dollar bill. You don't have to like to understand. The man killed all oncomers, was impactful and influential on many artists. And you don't get his success???

His style contributed to it, but it’s not just him. It’s the same with Drill, and Trap [c]rap. As a people we used to produce uplifting, loving music. The fork tongued beast realised this and funded, and encouraged the vileness we have now. From NWA - started the corruption of hip hop; to that agent if the us…Grange..who’s handlers assisted her in the promotion of dUncehall. All deliberate and we fell for it, hook line etc.

@awaal1600

And what do you listen to??? I hear you and will not say you're completely wrong. But not everything is a conspiracy. At least they don't start out that way. If there is money in it they will exploit it, and if it happens to be degrading bonus. For your info it was the labels that forced the underground movement. At the time of nwa, or leading up to it, major labels only signed clean artists ie Fresh Prince. It wasn't until they saw the money...but I agree the slackness is killing us.

Jamaica is divided into Parishes not Provinces. Promoting violence,gangs and slackness is not good for Jamaica. We need more positive and conscious lyrics in our music.🎶🇯🇲🏝️

Ninjaman is a charismatic personality…… great for Dj stage performances …. His music catalog is very disappointing…. He has some classic hits but nowhere near Shabba Ranks Supacat….. Maybe Ninjaman should have focused on his studio time more….

Bad bwoy!!

Hellooo sah

YES, Ninja man popularized the badman trend which destroyed dancehall; hence what we have now, junk.

Kartel was a big coward for fighting Ninjaman on stage with the backing of Klansman gang. Dancehall competitions and big shows went downhill after that. You would think people grow older and wiser but him and Ninjaman just threw away their lives at a point where they didn't have to.

Ninjaman is a great artist who unfortunately got caught in the mix. If he would have been to able remain focus and not get caught up he would not be in the situation he is in 🙄🎤🎼🎶🇯🇲🇬🇩🇹🇹🇬🇾🇺🇸

Free him

Get the facts

Ninjaman open the doors for nuff artist ninja ford cobra the list goes on and he never had the badman image act like badmad his badness was real im not saying it was good to be like that he was real the 4 djs that gave him a warm time cutty ranking on metro media pappa san jaro v creation and bunny general friendly clash on king jammys and of course the great merceless rip

So much potential…. But his international appeal was lacking due to limited catalogue of hits…. Unlike Djs like Supacat Shabba Ranks Cutty Ranks Bounty Killa Beenie Man

What people don’t kow the lyrics he talk he live it in real life

I can only assume that reggae danchall needed a bad man, someone to love and hate all at tne same time. Just like in tne movies. Without Ninja Man dancehall no good again. The field is full of some yapping puppy dogs, none of which have the character, stage presence or talent of the generation before them. Reggae Dancehall, as we grew up knowing it, is over.

You missed the biggest entertainer from St.Mary King Shango (Capleton)

And Kartel didn't take heed, he too is kow in prison for murder

Its me again, With all due respect but i gotta be honest here. Ninja and a host of other Deejays who followed his lead in terms of Gun Lyrics, played a role in popularizing violence and guns in their music through Dancehall. This has had a negative affect in Jamaican society up until today. Where you have some young artists who produce music that is negative and counterproductive. I can go on and on, but in a sense Ninja Man, contributed to the ruination of Dancehall to an extent.

That is sad and true Ninja is one of the greatest Deejay and have a big influence

Yes he is partially responsible for the downfall of dancehall worth his and man gun man lyrics.

No ninja is a legend vyzb kartel did

For me he will NEVER be cast in any dustbin you mad o wha

It's me again, no disrespect to the Gargon. But he is far from being the most feared in Dancehall. Real Dancehall fans like myself, KNOW who are REALLY the most feared in the Dancehall Fraternity.

That just why I dont listen to dancehall. That just why good reggae music is about to die in Jamaica. Promoting violence and slackness never help people to be good men. Have you heard the lyrics of Burning Spear's last song Jamaica? The old Spear is sad about the dissapearance of nyabinghi, bobo man and twelve tribes.

Yahushua the messiah son of Yahweh is the ONLY hope of salvation

That's a horrible statement he only helped push the dancehall culture.

I was wondering what happened to him. He didn't ever look healthy so I just assumed he was dead.

Mek him rot in prison 😂😂😂
