While passing through NYC to promote his MTV Unplugged album, German reggae superstar Gentleman took time out to build with Boomshots, and broke down all the steps of his rise through the business, first in Germany's rap scene and later with some of the top artists and producers in Jamaica. He also breaks down the true status of reggae music within the German market. "Reggae is still in the underground," Gentleman says. "People always think like reggae is huge in Germany. We have some major festivals where a lot of people, a lot of artists come. But if I turn on the radio or I look on the Billboard charts, it's not a lot of reggae. In Germany, it's stll in the subculture. But it's happening. Everything's moving in cycles."  Subscribe to Boomshots TV for more crucial reggae and dancehall videos.
