Gathering from their tour schedule, it was only their second show on this tour, so maybe they're not loosened up yet. I checked out their myspace and their performances in Jamaica were good! I personally think they're very exciting, their voices go so well together. But it's a good thing we can agree to disagree :) Thanks for the clarification!

I should have made it more clear, so I have added this bit: "Not that skin color dictates one's ability to play reggae music, the accent and mannerisms just seemed forced, and I heard nothing new or interesting from them."

Is it relevant to someone who wasn't there and is reading your review to visualize "Texas bred, stark-white MC's"?
