Couldn’t imagine being anything else but a traditional Skinhead, I know my Roots and I love Jamaican music, and black American soul & R&B. The media have tried to demonise us since the beginning but if you know you know, . Pride, respect, style and music. One love to all those who love Reggae music and to all the real Skinheads out there 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲

Massive respect....
Saw a dude on the same flight to corfu as me and my girlfriend a few years ago, he was proper smart top to toe with a 54-46 tattoo on the back of his head and a Trojan logo on the side...
He looked well cool I thought but I bet a lot of ppl on same flight were thinking Ooo! He looks like trouble.
So many people have no clue about how the music brought ppl together from different backgrounds.
Made me think of all the football hooligans discovering rave music and suddenly wanting to friends rather than fight! ;)
Also showing my rave background and my age, I was thinking of the Rebel MC sample I was more familiar with as a youth ;)
Anyways he was the smartest dressed person on the plane!!!! Big up

I remember well when I stayed at a mates home in Peckham how every shop around the station was blaring these old classics...

So glad to see Trojan coming back stronger and stronger! Reggae is 'boss', and skinhead rules :-)

As a teenager I was a punk, my older brothers were into ska and Motown then back in 79 when two tone kicked off I bought gangsters and one step beyond some of my mates gave me some shit for this, it reminded of our kid when I was 4 I’ve always liked ska and reggae northern soul and punk now I’m 57 and listen to ska
