<blockquote> <a href="http://www.daintycrew.com/rodigan.htm">Here's a biog/interview</a> </blockquote> From that interview: <blockquote> Since then he has been up against some of the most notorious clashing sounds, not least Ricky Trooper of Killamanjaro. However, their clash in 1997 was not without it's problems. The event was held in New York and as far as Rodigan was concerned, he came out the winner, but his opponent was not happy and he says "there were some racist remarks near the end that was unnecessary". After receiving an apology from Trooper over the telephone, Rodigan always the gentleman, accepted and put the issue behind him. Surprisingly, he harbours no malice and when asked who his hardest opponent in the clash arena, he pinpoints Trooper and elaborates "he's an inspiring selector and he has tremendous energy and commitment. He's a very tough nut to crack". </blockquote> That's the clash I was referring to earlier, the only one of his I have on tape. At one point Trooper calls him out saying something to the effect of "You come here with a face white like snow, try fi kill Killimanjaro". Now I have to find that tape, I want to hear it again.
