IRIE MAG interviews Med Dred |
Irie (I-rie\I'-ree) is a word in Jamaican Patois that means "alright". The term can be used to mean powerful or pleasing, excellent, highest or simply the state of feeling great. It is commonly used by members of the Rastafari movement. Dub (Duhb) is the art of making a remix, especially a reggae song, in which the lyrics are all all partially removed and the focus is placed on the drub track and the bass.
