Peter is showing contrast: He’s dumbfounded to the fact that men rather sing to women rather than to the Creator. He’s more concerned with their lack of priorities, while claiming to be Rasta.

We can all sympathize: How many times have you turned on the radio and let out a loud, disappointed sigh at the plastic-wrapped “love songs” that dominate the airwaves?

Tosh is aware that his video is in demand. He’s also aware of the true nature of the “beast” (read: music industry) — which basically is; “Conform and get paid little, or don’t and get paid nothing.”

He is also saying that the music he makes isn’t like “Prince” or “Michael Jackson” and that the music industry seems to find his music “too black”, and if it isn’t that peter is wondering what it could be.

The interviewer (also a fan) is shedding light from a consumer perspective. The labels had been slacking on promotion and sales for a video of Peter’s — because of what they perceived to be a “lack of demand.” (Perhaps that’s just the excuse they gave Tosh.)

She’s letting Tosh (and indirectly the label) know that the video is in fact, in demand, and that if it’s a corporate decision based on money, that selling is in their favor.

Peter is referencing what had seemed like a lack of promotion from his Record Label for his album. He mentioned earlier in the interview that his music didn’t have that universal “let’s all have fun” element King of Pop Michael Jackson’s music had, or the sex appeal Prince’s music brought to the table. Instead, Peter’s music was controversial, and had a lot of his unpopular opinions interweaved into the lyrics. This of course to a business mind, made it highly unmarketable, and thus, though musically Peter Tosh was on par with his performing colleague Bob Marley — the message wouldn’t sell.

His goal in his music is to educate the youth, especially the youth in his city, so they instead dream about noble futures, instead of the cycle of destruction in the “hood.”
