Yep.

When Xtaushan was around, they were wicked.

I like the new Nu Vybes Sugar Band too.

But both those bands are too young to be considered all time greats.

can't really disagree with your listing.....but I think you could combine a couple of dem

17 plus/hartattack....since both of them was based on Fredo's riddims
ellie matt and gi brass intl

I would add St. Croix bands like Enforcements and Xtaushun but I don't think them bands been together long enough....Vio might make the list though
