Tosh is a Lemur living among the bears of Ursai Village, who is an aspiring composer, not necessarily appreciated in the village. He will be playing the ceremonial hymn for the Killawahoo ceremony, but with a Funky new twist. Most of the villagers think Tosh playing his Ukitar is bothersome and noisy.
Tosh.0 is an American comedy television series that aired on Comedy Central from June 4, 2009, to November 24, 2020. The series was hosted and produced by comedian Daniel Tosh, who provided satirical commentary on online viral video clips, internet memes, social media, trending topics, society, celebrities, stereotypes, and popular culture as a whole.
The tone was based on Tosh’s deliberately offensive and controversial style of black comedy, observational comedy, satire, and sarcasm. The show at one stage reached number 1 ratings for its timeslot among men within the ages of 18–24, reaching millions of viewers at a time. The show was a convergence of television, computers, video cameras, and Internet access—across all devices and across all walks of life. The show premiered on Comedy Central on June 4, 2009. The first season was a surprise hit, averaging more than one million viewers per episode. Within 10 weeks of its premiere, Tosh.0 became the second-most-watched cable network show in its time slot.
After publication of this article, Marc T. suggested that a better reference was reggae musician Peter Tosh. This was then confirmed by my Wizard101 contact Mike S. Thank you to both for pointing me in the right direction.
Winston Hubert McIntosh OM GCOT (19 October 1944 – 11 September 1987), professionally known as Peter Tosh, was a Jamaican reggae musician. Along with Bob Marley and Bunny Wailer, he was one of the core members of the band the Wailers (1963–1976), after which he established himself as a successful solo artist and a promoter of Rastafari. He was murdered in 1987 during a home invasion.
By 1964, Tosh, Marley, and Bunny had formed the Wailing Wailers, with falsetto singer Junior Braithwaite, and backup singers Beverley Kelso and Cherry Smith. Initially, Tosh was the only one in the group who could play musical instruments. According to Bunny Wailer, Tosh was critical to the band because he was a self-taught guitarist and keyboardist, and thus became an inspiration for the other band members to learn to play. The Wailing Wailers had a major ska hit with their first single, “Simmer Down”.
Tosh’s debut solo album, Legalize It, was recorded in 1975-6 at Treasure Isle. It was released in June 1976 on CBS Records. The title track soon became popular among endorsers of cannabis legalization, reggae music lovers and Rastafari all over the world, and was a favorite at Tosh’s concerts. Also in 1976, Tosh organized a backing band, Word, Sound and Power, who were to accompany him on tour for the next few years, and many of whom performed on his albums of this period. Tosh’s second album, Equal Rights, released in 1977. It featured his recording of a song co-written with Marley, “Get Up, Stand Up”, and a cover of “Stepping Razor” that would also appear on the soundtrack to the film Rockers.
