Rise Up Reggae Star - BBC Storyville (2010)

I know this is not directly Conspiracy or Politically related, but indirectly of course this music has revolutionary roots, and Turbulence with his lyrics about government and police oppression, freedom, hunger and more, makes it more than suited to Concen. If anyone can get the full feature length "Rise Up" movie, PLEASE upload it, as this is just a BBC cut for TV.

And yes, for those who have seen it, the rich kid is annoying, yet shows the huge contrast between those who keep it real and those who don't know what reality really is, and wouldn't survive a day in it. Also, enjoy Kemoy Reid's voice, undiscovered, raw, unique and amazing. ~ Dunamis

Rise Up Reggae Star (BBC Storyville) [2010] [XviD]
Broadcast - Monday 1st March 2010 @ 22:30 on BBC Four

On an island where reggae is considered the voice of the people and an outlet for survival, Rise Up Reggae Star follows three aspiring artists who seek to 'rise up' from obscurity for their chance at success. This documentary takes the viewer off the beaten path far from any tourist attractions and sandy beaches, yet it is still able to capture the beauty and magic that the Island has to offer. From the deep countryside to the whirlwind ghettos of Kingston, no matter where you are, the film makes it evident that music is the heartbeat of the culture.

In a society where talent abounds and opportunity is scarce, Rise Up follows the very different lives of three artists struggling in their own unique way for their big break at stardom. Turbulence, the conscious ghetto youth with enough determination to move mountains; Ice, the young faux-gangster dancehall artist from the upper class; and Kemoy, the beautifully innocent country girl who barely realizes her amazing vocal gifts - their stories unfold as the film seamlessly interweaves their lives behind the backdrop of the bustling underground reggae scene of Jamaica.

Five years in the making, Rise Up is able to capture the pure artistry and creativity of these three musicians in raw form while at the same time, able to bring the viewer into their personal lives, inside their most private moments, as they struggle to find their voice and discover their ability to overcome life's obstacles.
