    I'm sorry - pum pum is the bass?? it's educational? And the video...was that meant to be educational?

    He's an interesting old man and a very talented musician, but I think he's lost it a bit.

    I think if everyone had a little bit more Pum Pum the world would be a happier place... plus there would be more humans! Why do people think scratch is weird... so he thinks he's a pyramid, so what !?!?

    The one thing I don't get is why he's talking about the mystical eye and the pyramid. That's Satans way of saying he has control over Perry's house. (?) And he wants to talk of righteousness? I'm a dread and I don't play any pum pum songs b/c that shit is filthy to me. Woman is the biggest downfall of the Rasta man and it's sad to me.
