"Juggling 'Cross The Border" - Lord Sassafrass

Lord Sassafrass - Documentary Short: "Juggling 'Cross The Border" "Juggling 'Cross The Border" is a story of redemption for a long-time Jamaican Reggae artist - Lord Sassafrass. Many Reggae artists were raised in poverty and, as a result, did not even own copies of the music they recorded. This is the case with Lord Sassafrass, but Sassafrass left a stack of 50 records in Brooklyn, New York, in the 1980s, which have remained there for 30 years. Sassafrass has tried to get across the U.S. border to gather his music but has yet to be stopped at the border on each attempt. This is the story of Lord Sassafrass' journey to find his music. This short documentary begins in Cleveland with Reggae Disc Jockey Rich Lowe, who goes to Toronto to gather Lord Sassafrass in Canada and then attempts to cross the border to Brooklyn, New York. On this journey, Sassafrass visits promoter Big John, long-time sound system and record shop owner Jah Life. Sassafrass is a Jamaican rapper and DJ who started his career in the late 70s. He was the lead toaster for the great Black Scorpio Sound System and recorded top ten Jamaican chart tunes like "Pocomania Jump." Sassafrass moved from Jamaica in the 1980s and spent time in Brooklyn, New York, before he settled in Toronto, Canada. Sassafrass is known as the "teacher" for a younger toaster named General Trees, who also DJ'd for Black Scorpio Sound. In Reggae "Dancehall" circles, Lord Sassafrass is legendary.
