Reggae music is what our 75 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:48,280 Speaker 4: ancestors and our forefathers left with us to keep us 76 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 4: close to the connection to God. 77 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 5: Because this music wasn't given to us by a man. 78 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 4: This is music was a divine music sent to an 79 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 4: island of an hundred and father for a square miles. 80 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 4: With our population at that time, I've nearly won pint 81 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:05,600 Speaker 4: four or five million people. But their struggles and their 82 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:09,600 Speaker 4: tenacity to withstand these struggles was so much so that 83 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 4: the fire themselves side fitting for them to be blessed 84 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 4: with their music of their own, to express their ideas 85 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 4: and ideology and their pin and their praises. And so 86 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 4: Reggae music was borned by the great Starlos. First we 87 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 4: had to count Machuke, and then we have Kings Titch. 88 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 1: Big, You you Ride, I Ride. 89 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 4: We have Bob Miley, we have the bit attached to 90 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 4: have the burning spears, and we have countless a group 91 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 4: of catalyzes, the heptunes, the techniques.

Now, we came 95 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 4: along as a later generation of musicians who knew that 96 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 4: our predecessors unders put the assignment and we needed to 97 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:02,839 Speaker 4: understand the assignment. 98 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 5: So I see myself as a last last. 99 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 4: Of the more econs, you know, reggae music spear who 100 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 4: come with that old school knowledge, who knows that this 101 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 4: music must feed my people, educate them, uplift them, eradicate negativity. 102 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 5: From their minds, and allow them to whine at the 103 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 5: same time. 104 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 1: It's a great. 105 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 3: So let me just tell you, you know, I live 106 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,920 Speaker 3: a bunch of white neighbors, a bunch of white people, 107 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,040 Speaker 3: and it's two things I like to do. 108 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 1: I like to bump reggae music around.

No, you 407 00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 4: can't be policed, it can't be sold. Those generally with 408 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:27,880 Speaker 4: the gun, I think they're so powerful and they don't 409 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:30,119 Speaker 4: have They don't realize that. What they have done is 410 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,160 Speaker 4: show the younger generation a type cast or a kind 411 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 4: of mindset that if you do have, you're not powerful. 412 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 4: There's some consciously broadcast this that if you don't have 413 00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 4: a gone you're not powerful, but that sound telling you 414 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:45,880 Speaker 4: that whether you have a nine to sixty doesn't matter 415 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:50,479 Speaker 4: what you have, it doesn't matter. You're not living right 416 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:52,920 Speaker 4: because the gun can't hurt anybody. It's the individual and 417 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:55,680 Speaker 4: the mindset that perpetrator. I can committed end result. 418 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:55,919 Speaker 1: Right. 419 00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 4: You put a fucking drink right here, it's harmless. The 420 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 4: person consume it, then it becomes a dud. Same thing 421 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:02,200 Speaker 4: with a gun. 422 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:15,440 Speaker 1: Don't kill people, peopleeople, you know, bunch of one of 423 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:15,879 Speaker 1: my songs. 424 00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:20,640 Speaker 4: So the premise exists. Yeah, don't kill people. People kill people, 425 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:23,399 Speaker 4: mister nine said to mister five five. So it's like 426 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 4: the guns are talking to themselves. We're not leaving right, you. 427 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:30,400 Speaker 3: Know, So it doesn't attend to That's why actually, because 428 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 3: it reminds me of the Navs song where nas is 429 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:35,680 Speaker 3: actually talking to a gun and he makes it so 430 00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 3: so there is no correlation. You know, I've never heard 431 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:43,920 Speaker 3: nothing song before. Okay, okay, okay, this is great. You know, 432 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:47,879 Speaker 3: so we spoke about some of it earlier. We said, uh, 433 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 3: when you came home the airport incident where people will 434 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:52,480 Speaker 3: you know, rushing you and you you kind of like 435 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:53,200 Speaker 3: needed your time. 436 00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:56,680 Speaker 1: But then this car say comes right after this. I 437 00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 1: read the reviews. 438 00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 3: They said that this might have been one of the 439 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:01,280 Speaker 3: greatest cars serious on earth. 440 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 4: I think Jamaica outsideis fried with Jamaica. I've seen larger concerts. 441 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 4: It's a monumental occasion for Iman. Still being home bland still, 442 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 4: you know, given appreciation for the love of cause I 443 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 4: grew up in a simple home. 444 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,480 Speaker 5: The love of God was always there. 445 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:21,720 Speaker 1: You know. 446 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 4: My enemies try to destroy me because you don't know 447 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 4: who I am. But trust me, they know. 448 00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:31,399 Speaker 5: And they dwell. 449 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,879 Speaker 4: And I think credibility and if it destroyed, credibility is 450 00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:36,159 Speaker 4: easy for you to destroy the man. 451 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:36,600 Speaker 5: Any man. 452 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 4: Once you destroy any man's credibility, it's always easier for 453 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 4: you to go at them. But my father, he stood 454 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:44,960 Speaker 4: in the bridge and showed them that this is my 455 00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 4: servant and I'm un easier to serve me, not you. 456 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,600 Speaker 4: So yes, they thought they put me away, but what 457 00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 4: they did was raised me up. Because you have to 458 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 4: realize what man plan to hurt you with, your father 459 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 4: plan to help you with. Okay, we're living in a world. 460 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,160 Speaker 4: We know that this world, especially the United Stans of Americas, 461 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 4: is domain.

I 465 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:33,359 Speaker 4: was here in the early nineteen nineties when I was 466 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 4: a young man. You had no dreads, and I saw 467 00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:39,159 Speaker 4: the trajectory, and I saw what they were trying to do. 468 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:41,760 Speaker 4: And they've accomplished it. They are accomplished killing the ki 469 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:44,399 Speaker 4: arrest one. They've accomplished killing everything positive that comes to 470 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:47,160 Speaker 4: the music. And it went on a spiral of we'd 471 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 4: to become the batchery and everything the furious and every 472 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,679 Speaker 4: so after the people gain their consciousness and they hit 473 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 4: them when someone or something else and they would drive 474 00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,679 Speaker 4: the message room so hard that they have no escape. 475 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:03,920 Speaker 4: We are fortunate enough to be on an island where 476 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 4: we can educate to ourselves from these circumstances and cultivate 477 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:09,680 Speaker 4: an identity for our own and a spiritual awareness of 478 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 4: our own and a firmness to take us through this struggle. 479 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 5: We don't hear to convert people because we're at a cult. 480 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:22,639 Speaker 4: Yes, we aim to open the eyes of the ones 481 00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:25,800 Speaker 4: who are hearing the earth so they can partic of 482 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:28,720 Speaker 4: the goodness of God, not of the goodness of the devil. 483 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 4: Becaus want to last for a minute, But the goodness 484 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:38,920 Speaker 4: of God is ever lasting.

You know, several times it happens to us 1577 01:27:41,040 --> 01:27:43,320 Speaker 4: because you know, you give people the benefit of the 1578 01:27:43,360 --> 01:27:45,040 Speaker 4: door that they're going to do business, but it never 1579 01:27:45,160 --> 01:27:48,280 Speaker 4: materialized that way.
