True that. We believe. Natikongili om zikiao. Kama the midnight band Wallychens Gina into Akaibeka. Maybe. Ki dogu kutumbia. I mean why that happened. Midnight in the band, Von Benjamin. Way back in 1989. Ikiwa na bradakia na itwa. Von Benjamin. Waka. Aokwa na pigiangu omahsaha na live. Batwali record albumia. Kwanza in 1997. So you can see, Rasta man search village out of Kiyua. Kina king ma lukwasha zaliwa. 1997 that's when they dropped their first album. And it was unpolished. It's a 10 track album. Vitu ngunu, vitu nzito. Vitu deep. Iko level moji apuna. Bob Tosh, Bernie, hezo. Batwali change Gina into. And then waka since 97 again, 2099 waka to albumia pili na itwa rast make peace. Waka to albumia tatu daya 2000 in itwa. Jubilis of Zion.

Hota you never go back. What's your favorite song yake? To say a favorite song, not really a favorite song because it's hard to choose. It's really hard to choose my favorite. Vaun ni lyricist. Na wakila ngo meake, ni deep sana. As a rasta man, una feel to every song. Alafuna jwa vaun ni versatile. An a chant, an a sing, an a moan. Vaun to ni deep. Labda wu jaribu kusiku vaun, jwa vaun na. That's why most of them are underground. Vaun artistum kubosana a me perform William Zima, Asia, Europe, America. Africa. 2017. That was May. Many people didn't know, but Master Blaster wu jar kaili sana. He's in zileza wa rasi. An waluwa deep ni wana jwa. Can I stay front on par there? Connections? Waluwa deep, true? Ile rege tia kawida iti wa tu ala batisha. Jwa skwezi rege, kuna bile ko diluted kidogo. So, bado kuna waluwa na jaribu kumaintain the real purpose of reggae music because there is too much corruption and too much... But corruption will come through when you differentiate the reggae music and the rasta in reggae. True, because there is reggae music, just reggae, played in church, played in discourse, played anywhere. And there is rasta music as in rasta roots reggae. Rasha's RASTA, rashas a postal standing tall alone. Rasha's a postal standing tall alone. We don't even the crowd. I tell kumuko peki ako, kura ju me stand ya rashasnes as in the oil. One outstanding on that one. That's why maybe I'm underground. Many people think he's underground, but he's not. He's not underground. If I could say what many people think, he's not actually underground. He's a legend. He's a true legend. Situ na jutu the vague. Kingman, kuna suglia yote? Me li ko easy manze, wana jua, like me li ko na sample na ziki manze, wana jua. Island vibes manze, kusatu na appreciate art wana jua. Being in music is one magical thing. True man. It touches the soul. It's a very light question. Wana jua. The phrase rasta man never dies. What does it mean? Wana jua, say wana wichu kulia lightly. It's not lightly. It's not light as many people may think, but equally. Mali passed on when? It's now 38 years ago, but he still lives and reigns in the heart of men every day. Every single minute. Every single minute. Every single minute. So in every corner of the world. So you think he's dead, but it's hajai kufa. Kusubabu, kitumzuriwe kufi, wana wana. So the phrase rasta man never dies, it's true, they never die, kus good works never die. It inspires forever. Rasula, chuku yongela kusurastad kuna suma wene the different kinabubu shanti, 12 tribes of Israel, nani? Okay, in my father's house there's many mansions and in that mansion wana bobo, jingi, 12 tribes. So maybe you know, okay, 12 tribes of man, just being a rasta, trying to live clean life. We don't bother much about this and that, living clean, choosing the positive vibes and leaving the trash aside. So I'm a rasta man, first I'm a dreadlock trying to live a righteous life of a rasta man. So you're a mother of a rasta man, what's your space? I'm a mother of a rasta man, I'm a mother of a rasta man, what's your space? I'm a mother of a rasta man, akibeka. Akibeka, mimi wana ijina imetuka kwa buka enok? Yes rasta.
