Via Woebot comes this Nu Groove documentary. Pretty representative for the Nu Groove sound is Bobby Konders: The Poem.

Woebot also points us to this Lee Perry interview. From that interview:

Viceland: What are your thoughts on the war in Iraq?

Lee Perry: The war in Iraq was ordained to be and Iraq was supposed to be Babylon, but Mr Bush don’t want Iraq to have the power to know that Iraq is Babylon. Nothing go wrong, it ordained to be so. Otherwise Saddam Hussein will end up being the destruction and Bush would prefer to be the destruction. Babylon was in Iraq, now Babylon in America.
