The Melting pot No not Conrad black This is a British reggae female singer Kofi first worked with the trio Brown Sugar (with Pauline Catlin and Soul II Soul vocalist Caron Wheeler). Her first solo single was "Place in the Sun." Later she released an album on Mad Professor's Ariwa Records, Black...With Sugar. "Proud of Mandela," a remake of a song from her debut, reached the top of the reggae charts in 1990. Ras released Wishing Well domestically. Black Pride" focuses on, well, black pride. Nevertheless, Kofi's soothing lovers style is consistent,~ John Bush, All Music Guide
Thanks so much for uploading this video. I didn't know about this song until I searched for songs about Black pride. I not only love the lyrics but the video is outstanding & so interesting to watch!
I included that video in a post on my cultural blog. Google Pancocojams Songs About Black Pride. Since I couldn't find the lyrics online, I attempted a transcription of that song which is also in that post along with videos of & lyrics for three other songs. Corrections are welcome.
Thanks again!
