'War Dance' on Stephen Marley's Bongo Nya riddim begins with a sample of the legendary Indo-Jamaican artist Super Cat. Cat, in a conversation with Chin, gives a mystical history of how drum beats played by slaves and native Indians metaphorphed over the years into dancehall and studio riddims. Cat in his speech conflates East Indians and First Nation Indians of the Americas. The Bongo Nya riddim kicks in and provides the perfect bass for Delhi Sultanate's lyrics evoking images of a post apocalyptic Indigenous people's war dance.

Lyrics:
Bring it and come
Righteous consciousness
Bring it and come
Rastaman
Bring it and come
Rudegirl intellect
Bring it and come
Beat the drum
My people a bring it and come

Beat the drum 
Flesh a mi palm beat pan goat skin
A war dance
Unno think is a joke thing
Necromantic capitalist a close in
Fake democratic antics 
Them pose in
We are not free
Expose this dagger and cloak thing
Wolf pack dress up in a meek sheep clothing
We cope -
But dark days keep approaching
Excess a genocide a feed up di wealth dem a promoting

Brag up and a boast dem belly fat a keep bloating
Sink like titanic why dem boat keep floating
Gravalicious and greedy glutton ugly up a goading
And you know how me feel about the queen and the pope thing

Total resistance well
Bring it and come
Roots and cultre
Bring it and come
Rastaman
Bring it and come
Righteous gangsta
Bring it and come
Righteous consciousness
Well bring it and come
Indian African
Well bring it and come
Indigenous tribes
Well bring it and come
If you’re ready for whatever
We say bring it and come

Place razor in the hand of cantankerous slave
Amazing It coulda happen anyone of the days
encourage the coward and start roll with the brave
Abolish them system just  anyone of these dayz


Beat di drum
Bingiman
Beat di drum – beat drum
Bongoman
Beat di drum – beat drum
Indian
Beat di drum – beat drum
Rastaman
Beat di drum – beat drum

Indigenous all make the fire bon
People hear it from far and come
Bassline linked to the foundation
We go gather the lineages and the wicked hafi run

War Dance (Bongo Nya)

‘Lighters Up’ is a re-lick of Major Lazer’s tune for Snoop Lion, by London based producer Tramendas. Begum X sings harmonies on the Chorus ‘today not tomorrow’ while Delhi Sultanate’s verses contain multiple references to colonial history, from the 1857 uprising in India to the killing of Colonel Gaddafi in 2011. The Gaddafi reference echoes a classic Dancehall song by Indo-Jamaican artist Super Cat released in 1984. For these lines Delhi Sultanate borrows Cat's pattern of the 1984 classic ‘Under Pressure’ where Cat pays homage to the Libyan leader and proponent of pan Africanism. 

'The system is a fraud 
attempt fi go tek it over
head ago roll
India to Ethiopia'

From i Hear

A musical nod to the traditional spheres, inspired partly by Gustav Holst's 'The Planets'.

Mercury

'No capitalists shall escape' opens with a sample from Chronixx, prophesizing that in the near future all youths will grow up as revolutionaries. Stephen Marley's rockstone beat kicks in over analogue dub siren sounds and we hear the sampled voice of Johnny Clarke 'No Capitalists Shall Escape in this time'. Reminding listeners of the original source of Stephen Marley's riddim. The Johnny Clarke line is taken from a dubplate he voiced for Bass Foundation Roots. Interestingly, while the original lyrics to his famous song ' None Shall Escape' do not mention the word 'capitalists' anywhere, a lesser known dub version by King Tubby exists that contains different lyrics. Clarks voice comes in only briefly in the militant dub mix of this track, yet his words are straight to the point. Instead of his usual 'none shall escape' you can clearly hear him say ' No Capitalists Shall Escape' - pointing to the existence of alternate vocal takes of this great roots classic.

As the beat kicks in Delhi Sultanate begins his verse, riddled with references to colonial history and metaphors of disease ala 'small pox blankets' and dubplate boxes full of 'black bacteria'. Johnny Clarke's voice returns once more in the break down before Begum X takes over the rest of the song with her heavy blues style delivery written by her after she spent an afternoon reading Frantz Fanon's 'Wretched of the Earth'

Lyrics: 
DS:
Sultanate in a your area
18” scoops Bass foundation roots is taking care of ya
step into the stereo
we steppin tropical 
and waste colonialists just malaria
World Bank a send some small pox blankets 
my dub box full up a black bacteriea
Dread bass vibrate your body
send messages to  all the provinces 
gather all a di the warriors
fire bon dem weh cast the curse
these crackers start some things that just dem cant reverse
dwell in the DK jungle is my last reserve
die out in the embrace of mumma earth
the cataclysm make us face the unthinkable
dem mash up flesh we hold invincible principle
but we know seh that dem ship soon sinkable
ghost dance & rastafari aint going down 

BX:
My master turned me lose
and I ain't lyin
no I ain't lyin
master yu turned me lose
you better watch out
oh you better watch out
you wanna rein me in
but you made a monster out of me
I just changed the rules
you better watch out
no I aint lyin

Mehdiman - Stay Far ( Riddim Prod. By Boombardub )

‘Bon Dem Again’ employs Damien Marley’s ‘As We Enter’ riddim. Of all the songs on the EP ‘Bon Dem Again' contains the clearest musical connection to Africa. Damien Marley rebuilt a song originally created by Ethiopian jazz legend Mulatu Astatke, titled Yègellé Tezeta. ‘Bon Dem Again’ was first created as a dubplate for London based producer Jstar, the lyrics are a mix of sound clash bravado and revolutionary references. 'pump your fist now - time get stricter'
