The Rastafari Movement was founded by Leonard Percival "Gong" Howell in 1932. Leonard P. Howell was a Mystic Jamaican born in the hills of Clarendon, Jamaica in 1898. Howell left Jamaica as a youth traveling the world over returning to Jamaica from the United States of America on November 17, 1932. 

He had attended the Coronation of Emperor Haile Selassie and Empress Menen in Ethiopian on November 2, 1930 and knew what the crowning of the Emperor and Empress signified to all African People. Leonard P. Howell had audiences with the Emperor Haile Selassie when he was Supreme Regent of Ethiopia.

Rasta began with Leonard P. Howell and his street preaching to lift the spirits of the enslaved black men and women from Kingston to St Thomas. He was very popular, had a bakery along with his skills as a Naturopathic Doctor which he sustained himself his people and his children. He was tried for sedition in St Thomas, Jamaica, in the case cause celebre of the assizes. He spoke out against the wrongs of the crown and colonial Jamaica against the men women and children of Africa stolen, sold and enslaved in Jamaica for hundreds of years.

He called for International Salvation for all peoples globally while on trial for his life. Howell was found guilty and sentenced to two years imprisonment. On his return, the Rastafari Movement faced a Moraunt Bay rebellion of their own as they were attacked, beaten and robbed for days by the police, Christian populace spurred on by the colonial planters and their acolytes. Days later buses were sent into this tense criminal situation and the Rastafari people and Leonard pinnacle

At Pinnacle, The Rastafari Movement grew and was self-sufficient and self-reliant. However, the settlement was continually raided, robbed, burnt with many incarcerations by the colonial police with their ultimate aim being the fragmentation and destruction of the Rastafari Movement.

For A Reason

Fyris River Riddim

This biography comes from a solo artist by the name Jon Pecos. Born and bred in Westmoreland, Jamaica where on almost every corner there is someone with talent, it goes without saying Jon's musical style is highly influenced from his roots, and has a clear passion for writing, performing and recording Reggae and Dancehall music, along with Hip Hop which developed when he moved to the UK.

Jon has an immense passion for his roots, and although he has no problem putting himself on Hip Hop tunes his heart is in Reggae music, and this is where his focus is.
As the years have passed Jon has performed all over the country, and he always goes down a storm.


As most young youths Jon was always interested in music and after watching how the selectors and mc's worked, he was invited to join Dessert Storm in 1994, and two years later moved on to the sound system Studio Love. Selecting and getting the crowds going with his mc'ing he realised that he had a deeper passion, and began slowly writing a song of his own. His first song, Puff Mi Weed was born and went down well, every dance that was held, people always wanted to hear Jon perform the tune.

Jon left Jamaica for England in 1998, and in 1999 he started working with selector Major Decus, later on that year promoter Belly G held earth strong dance with sound system Stone Love. As it was just a selector by the name of Cancer passing through it was suggested that Jon was given the job of warming up the crowd. Belly G saw what Jon was capable of and put him in touch with sound system Saxon Studio. Two weeks later he was given the chance to show them what he could do, he was then invited to join the movements of the system and met the man behind it all, Musclehead. 
Taking the confidence that he had been given from the sound systems back in Jamaica and his new found inspiration from Saxon Sound he continued to write lyrics. Getting all the studio time he could he soon realised that he had a talent to put his lyrics on almost any track he was given.

In 2007 he met the artist Switch Mc and producer Passion Hifi, and together formed the Hip Hop group Hood Theory. Just months later they found themselves performing at The Bedford River Festival, and after receiving nothing but positive feedback they decided to hit the studio and record more tracks, and filmed a video that was put on YouTube and which has recieved over 48,000 views.

Since then as well as his works with Hood Theory, Jon has continued to rise as a solo artist. Putting his lyrics on tracks and making them his own.

Jon is an unstoppable force with strong passion and love for this music, he was recently told 'Pecos your not an Iron Balloon, one day your gonna bust'. 

Listen and hear for yourself that Jon Pecos is a name to look out for......
