Posted August 28, 200618 yr Cham - Ghetto Story http://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/AT2054CDX.JPG There are a million stories in the ghetto. And yet there's only one 'Ghetto Story', and like the song says, it's a survival story. Drawing inspiration from daily life in their troubled homeland, Cham and The Stranger created a dancehall masterpiece called 'Ghetto Story' which hit the streets like a bomb at the end of 2005, Jamaica's bloodiest year on record with over 1,600 slain. Blending the vivid street narrative with trenchant political analysis and Cham's emotional delivery, 'Ghetto Story' became an instant classic, summing up all the pain and loss. Neither glorifying nor preaching against violence, 'Ghetto Story' coldly examines the root causes behind the chronic brutality that has plagued Jamaica for a quarter century. - HMV UK Release date: 28-8-2006
