TWO GANJA JAMAICAS Chris Blackwell being an advocate for GanjaFutures Jamaica is troublesome for several reasons. His continuing interest in the Marley Estate, his continuing interest in the Reggae Revival Artists like Jamar Chronixx McNaughton and NoMaddz MuZic Jamaica and his penchant for non investment in the infrastructual development in the creative iindustry of Jamaica Reggae Industry-Association. Chris Blackwell in my estimation knows that the key to the Ganja Industry and benefit to what he describes below is Capital and being party to the Billions of dollars created by the Rastafari Millennium Council Rastafari IP of The Wailers could as easily as his local opinion create a Venture Capital Fund to support and determine what he proposes! The recent CNN expose by Anthony Bourdain gives a glimpse of a socialization that has not augured well for our local music industry. I would only have to compare him to Virgin CEO Richard Brandon to get another slice of this disdain that makes me completely uncomfortable with his positioning in and around Ganja with a Government that is weak on Intellectual Property Rights and a multi million US dollar offshore Marley Natural deal whose Privateers are probably ensconced at Golden Eye! There is a much deeper analysis required as the struggle for equal rights and justice around Ganja unfolds in what his political business partner Edward Seaga has coined as the Two Jamaicas!
