Blame It On The Sweet Green
Amy Wino, forever the Crackie of Camden to me, was packed up and shipped off to St. Lucia to shake the crack out of her system so she could get back to making music (and cash money). Well, the record label apparently isn't busting loads over the shit she wrote in between stealing cocktails and dry humping the tourists in the Caribbean. The Sun says Wino now thinks she's like the next Bob Marley or something, because her new sound is all reggae. Crackie Marley!
A source said, "She seems to have ditched her trademark vintage soul sound and is now heavily influenced by reggae. Her bosses don’t think it’s a wise move to change her style so sharply and have told her that.”
They sent the crackie to the Caribbean, what do they expect?! Wino let the local flavor fall all over her and creep into her lungs. And by that I mean she squeezed into a bong and inhaled enough of the good shit to leave St. Lucia dry for years.
The label isn't only concerned about Wino butchering reggae with her crackie call, but they also think her lyrics are way too dark. Even for her. The source went on to say, “In the past, she’s written frequently about broken hearts and boyfriends, but this time round she’s delving into harrowing terrain.”
Wino's green must have been laced with a little of the evil sugar, because if she was smoking the good shit, all her songs would be about the Taco Bell chihuahua, South Park, Michael Phelps and 12-hour naps.
You know, her label whores need to take a few tokes themselves, because it's better than they think. Look on the bright fucking side. At least Wino's brain can still work long enough for her to write actual words on paper. Which is more than I can say for myself this morning. Fuck, I hate Monday morning times. Wino, take all of us awaaaaay.

she's done good covers of 2-tone and ska music like the Specials and Toots & the Maytals so I bet it sounds aces. her last album was good but with Adele and Duffy on her back, its a smarter choice to go another direction.
I want to hear what she wrote, damn it.

Kansas City has more crack than blues.
Bob Marley will not stand for this fuckery! I just spoke w/him last night.
He will surely have something to say!
IIIIRRRRY!!! ILL GET THIS YOUNG LADY OFF THE GODDAMNED CRACK AND ONTO THE KUSH. THEN JAH WILL LOOK KINDLY ONTO HER. THIS REMINDS ME WHEN THE STONES TRIED TO DO THINGS WITH PETER TOSH. STAY OFF THE PYREX STUPID FUCKING PIPE WITH CHAR BOY AND WRAP YOUR SOUL AROUND THE ROAR BONG. GET INTO CONTACT WITH ME WINEHOUSE AND YOU CAN DO THE FUCKING BACKUP VOCALS TO 3 LITTLE BIRDS. 3 LITTLE CRACKIE BIRDS, HAHAHAH SORRY AMY I COULDNT RESIST
Cracked out EMO Reggae, hmmmm count me in.
technically *she*is to crack what Bob Marley was to weed.
edited: god i hate mondays.
Every crackly voice ho in England has already ripped Amy off with that 60's sound. Why should she do it again? She should sing what she is feeling. It'll be better for all of us.
after watching the documentary "Heavy Metal in Baghdad", I don't care about scag bitches like this primadonna waste can.
I hate record labels, they basically make you stay the same as the day you came into the industry. All artists should be allowed to grow,mature and change but this is not the case. At least Amy writes her own music, give the girl a break. She married a fuckin crackhead, got fucked up in the game and seems to be doing well. Fuck her label they obviously dont care about her.
Hey! she should write about what she knows, if in her case it means writing about crusty crackpipes and sleeping in your urine and feces then so be it.
-----------------------------------------------
Hey baby! Did heaven lose a star? 'cause you've got niiiiiiice cans...
Have to say, the lip burns from her crack pipe look healthier than they have in years.
Wow, I can't wait to hear this new album from her. Love her, drugs and all.
I would have to hear the songs first, but reggae is a tricky genre. It would be very easy to drift into a very generic and cliched sounding reggae. In fact, since Bob Marley, it has seemed to move in that direction as a whole.
I love me some Bob Marley

Amen. It's a very rare album where every track is gold.

Real Winoloonies like myself will buy whatever Amy puts out. Shut up and let the girl create!!!

Here's a thought - perhaps this drugged-out bitch is a bad investment.

Also, since when is it a crime for an artist to switch up styles? Music today sux anyway. Let her do what she wants.
My girl Linda Ronstadt has recorded everything from Rock to Country to Pop Standards to Mariachi to Opera to Cajun. And she had done them all quite well, I may add.

Boy that pisses me off -- WHY DO THEY NEED TO DO OUR THINKING FOR US!! I for one, want to hear the dark lyric of Reggae Wino.
The record companies want us all to listen to Taylor Swift (not that there's anything wrong with TS) and Beyonce til our ears bleed.
There has to be room for more.

Her song "Just Friends" on her Back to Black album has some reggae influence. Also, since when is it a crime for an artist to switch up styles? Music today sux anyway. Let her do what she wants.

How in hell can you make reggae "harrowingly dark"?? It's supposed to be happy music. Only Wino would do that to reggae.
**
lots of reggae music is about dark topics. its the spiritual music of an entire religion, its not all like Bob Marley's Greatest Hits.

It's really hard to follow up a smash CD. The record company and most fans want the artist to do more or less the same thing again. The artist often is bored with the old sound and bored from playing the hits nonstop. It's not going out on a limb to guess that "Back to Black" was the apex of her career.
