Sudan child soldier turned rapper - 11_APR_08

From a former child soldier driven by hatred to a successful hip-hop musician, it has been a long road for Emmanuel Jal. Most of his music relates to his traumatic childhood as a child soldier in south Sudan before he was smuggled out of the country by an aid worker. Now, based in London, Emmanuel is making a name for himself as a respected activist and anti-child soldier campaigner.
This is Emmanuel Jal's story, in his own words.

he doesn't know his age, becuse in some villages of Africa doesn't exist the censiment bureau and they don't have Identity card and something like that, everything is based on memory, but if his family is dead how to remember....

@OoA7LaFaToOmAoO all religion is a tool used to control the masses, wich relies on our own courios minds not quite advanced enuf to comprehend the universe and the things around us. but if enuf people say the same thing that we were created by a so called god then over time society would convince its self of its own lies. ...im not a very smart person i do not mean to offend anyboddy and their belifes, i can only judge people by their actions, mankind as a entirety is neither inocent nor guilty.

Error "East sudan is Fur Land and other tribes" i meant West Sudan sorry

[Yesckfans]

@ayisha1978 Sudan is not an nubian Land either. Nubians only own 10% of Sudan. Nubians are from South egypt as well as small part in North Sudan. Sudan has more then 100 Tribes and they all own it equally Nubia does not own Whole of sudan alone. East sudan is Fur Land and other tribes. south Mostly is Dinka. central Neur. West Sudan is Beja, Bilan Saho etc.. Nubians were never in South Darfur. or South Sudan and parts of east. so how can Nubians Own the whole sudan.
