Benjamin (Obadiah Iqbal) Zephaniah (born 15 April 1958, Handsworth, Birmingham, England) is a British Rastafarian writer and dub poet, and is well known in contemporary English literature. Zephaniah published his first book of poems, Pen Rhythm, in 1980. It was so well received that three editions were published. His album Rasta, which featured The Wailers' first recording since the death of Bob Marley as well as a tribute to Nelson Mandela, gained him international prestige[citation needed] and topped the Yugoslavian pop charts.[citation needed] It was because of this recording that he was introduced to the political prisoner and soon-to-be South African president, and in 1996, Mandela requested that Zephaniah host the president's Two Nations Concert at London's Royal Albert Hall.
