The term- JABBING in America was coined by reggae creator and trench town reggae legend Ras cardo who came up with the term and the idea to help lift America out of its present depression, and financial hardships and uncertainty. He thought that it would be a most fitting slogan for people to share with each other and to feel good about in this time since he knows what it really means to overcome hardships coming from Jamaica to America.
