ROOTS AND CHALICE SUNDAYS 03-09-2023

ROOTS AND CHALICE SUDAYS 04-27-25 FEAT.BLACK SOUNDS...

Inspired by the movie "The Mauritanian" about (surprise, surprise) American military and governmental injustice at Guantánamo Bay. 

"Some say it’s just the cost of war…
But we’re here to tell the story,
From the islands to the mainland,
From the cell to the open sky…
Truth will rise up.”

Down in the bay they call Guantánamo,
Sun beat down where no free wind blow,
Brother Qahtani, forty-eight nights no sleep,
Chained to the floor, pain cut deep.
Rumsfeld sign with a smile and a pen,
Said “make them break,” again and again,
But a broken soul don’t bring no peace,
Only a mind and body where the hate increase.

Truth rise up, like the morning sun,
No more chains, the healing’s begun,
Even if you fear, even if you fight,
Mercy shine stronger than the darkest night.
Truth rise up, you can feel it sway,
Every man’s pain will return someday,
What we sow in the heart, that’s what we reap,
And the world can’t rest while the past still weeps.

Cheney talk about “do it again,”
Bybee and Yoo twist the law for them,
Dogs in the room, cold wind blow,
Strip you bare so the shame pit grow.
But a man in the ground will rise with a song,
You can’t kill the truth, it lives too long,
Every beating hand leaves a mark on the giver,
Every poisoned well taints the taker’s river.

Truth rise up, like the morning sun,
No more chains, the healing’s begun,
Even if you fear, even if you fight,
Mercy shine stronger than the darkest night.
Truth rise up, you can feel it sway,
Every man’s pain will return someday,
What we sow in the heart, that’s what we reap,
And the world can’t rest while the past still weeps.

What if it was your son in the cell?
(Would you pray for the guard to treat him well?)
Can you win a war by killing the seed?
(Or do you grow more sorrow, more need?)
Justice ain’t revenge, it’s the mending hand,
(Lift the fallen man so he can stand.)

From Baghdad streets to Cuban shore,
Violence only opens the door
For another round, another fight,
Another mother crying in the night.
Let’s turn the wheel, make a higher choice,
Give the tortured back their stolen voice,
For the soul of a nation is on display
In how we treat the ones we take away.

Truth come down, like the setting sun,
No more chains, the healing’s begun,
Even if you fear, even if you fight,
Mercy shine stronger than the darkest night.
Truth flow through, you can feel it sway,
Every man’s pain will return someday,
Plant seeds of peace, let the roots grow deep,
So the world can rest and the people sleep.

"No nation stands taller by holding a man down.
Each human united—we’re forging new ground."

Guantánamo

SOLID ROCK - 90's Special Vol. 14 - Celebrate Life (Mar. '19)

SHASHAMANE INTL 
                -The Afrikan Zulu Warriors Sound
     Afrikan Number One Rub A Dub Sound
                 
In 1984 I teamed up with my two brothers the late Pupa Davis and Rev Didah and  started a sound called it Dread Brothers Promotions.They started doing small gigs at the Garden Square until I finally left Roots Inity Promotion in 1985. We then started doing our gigs in a big scale playing around Clubs like Chiromo and Alliance Club. In the summer of 1985, Ras Ken Ambasu and Daddy Chosh joined the sound.

I left for Germany in 1985 and worked for a year. In  1986 and went to Denmark and bought my first music equipment and went back to Kenya. It was very easy for us to go mobile playing around the country because we had our own Sound System which was the first one in Kenya. I visited Shashamane land in Ethiopia as a member of the twelve tribes of Israel and met Dennis Brown. That is when I decided to change the name of the sound to Shashamane International..

In 1987 I organized the first sound and Dj clash at the City Hall in Nairobi including one from Birmingham England with a brother called Teflah. That is when I met Terrence Munene and since he was the youngest and the baddest of them all in the competition, I gave him the name of Youthman Terry and added him on the sound right away.
We Started playing at Hollywood Club and in late 1987 I went back to England where I met Dennis Brown again and he did my first Dubplate for the sound, a song called country living. In 1990 I went To New York  and settled in Harlem. Back home, we moved from Hollywood Club to Monte Club. And Daddy Freddy, King Monday, MC Fanya, MC Frank, Daddy Augustinoh, Ras Panyaley, Oga Sura Mbaya, Dj. Sweta and MC Juce joined the sound.

In New York City I opened up a store on 125 street and St. Nicholas Avenue. And hooked up with some youths from the neighborhood who used to frequent my store and hear me play loud Reggae music on the street. Their names were James Bond, Little Fox, Six Killer and Danger One. And our manager was Sister Dorsey who was our manager. 

The current members of the sound are Ringo, Short Boss, Dj. 4eign, Dj. Murphy, Dj. Bugs, Dj Priest, Jahmo, Albinorock, Daddy Chosh, Dj. Augostinoh, Toni Dread, Rev Didah, Dj. Chevy, Prince Otachh and Ranking Charlie.
