Rude Boys
What is a rude boy? What is a rude girl? What does 'to be rude' mean? Today, it simply means that you're a dedicated member of the ska scene. If you have a good ska collection, if you dress up in a way that indicates that you like ska, if your style and taste makes it obvious to others that you're in with the ska, you are therefore 'rude' by the definition of ska crowd.
A Bit More On Ska
Rude Boys are usually open minded. Most people who listen to Rap think so close-minded and judge other on what "gang" or 'side" they are from. Ska is not just a music but a way of thinking. It is a personality. To be nice to each other and stop this hatred, Ska is about being happy and feeling good. There is so much to ska.
What We Try To Do
I am getting tired of the same rock and rap and all the same songs. We are the 2000 generation and we need something new. Ska is not new but we want it to be something that people listen to. Not to become popular but to keep it alive. To make more and more rudeboys. We need to bring back ska for the 2000 generation! Spread the word and if you like Ska and like the idea of a rudeboy spead the word! Bring Back Ska!
