The crooner in the dancehall: singing against the deejay era

What was argued

Documented commentary on the place of melodic singing within a deejay-dominated dancehall, stated neutrally: one view treats the 'golden-voiced' crooner tradition as a durable counter-current that kept romance and R&B in the music; another treats toasting and the deejay as dancehall's defining voice, with singers a secondary strand. Neutral framing; no verdict.
