Vybz Kartel - Wah Some Grades (Worker Ant Remix) by Worker Ant
I heard the original track on NotNice Productions' Birthday Riddim and eventually found the acapella sometime last year. I knew i had to remix this track for a few different reasons:
1) Kartel is voicing exactly how i've been feeling in this track (i'm in south korea and there's no herb here);
2) I like the track;
3) I felt like the track needs a better riddim...something to make it feel more like a ganja song.
In the original track, you'll hear a woman saying "in gaza" throughout the track. Gaza is another term for Portmore city, Jamaica where Vybz Kartel is from. I'm living in South Korea where nobody smokes ganja and not many people want to smoke because everybody thinks it's a dangerous drug. Don't ask me "how did that happen" because it baffles me too. I decided to replace the "in gaza" with "in korea." My friend spoke that part for me.
I'm leaving Seoul and moving to Seattle in less than a month, but I really hope that there will be more ganja and ganja-smoking in the future of Korea. Many everyday Korean people seem so stressed, uptight and conservative. I think that people just need to relax and smoke some highgrade sensi for a difference. By the way, that's what Kartel means when he sings "grades"...high grade ganja. "Wah Some Grades" means "I want some high grade chronic" basically.
