Dem Take it All

Sunryez Official

Dem Take It All

La nature aura toujours le dessus ! Performed by AfroCosmos.

MOTHER NATURE STUDIO MIX

Roots of a culture, roots of a people. We couldn't live on this planet without nature to nurture - our souls. Reggae brings us together and reminds of us of the connections we all have with one another through our ancestral roots.

Roots of Roots

Rise up, rise up—grab the sun and ride it
Feel the fire, no need to hide it
Take it higher, right through the storm
New time to rise, ready to transform

Take it higher

Une visite francophone au prophète Bob ... Yao Olagbedji

LES ETATS UNIS D'AFRIQUE

So many songs to sing, to sing, to sing

so much joy to bring, to bring, to bring

but hear mi say 
every song been sung a thousand times

inna thousand times, inna thousand rhymes

a thousand rhymes

it's the same old song and dance

same old blinding trance

every word been twisted and spun into a thousand different sounds

Til there's nothing left to say but - 

love gonna come around

keep a comin'

keep a comin' round

keep a comin'

keep a comin' round

Time to start a new song

a new rhyme
a new dance
a new time

all people dancing and singing
sync di time
sync di time
all people dancing and singing
sync in time

world a spin round
demons keep a comin, keep a frontin' on the same old dead ground

but we chant dem down, chant dem down
every time
we chant dem down, chant dem down

love gonna come around

love gonna come around

keep a comin'

keep a comin' round

love gonna come around

love gonna come around

ROCKING TIME ROUTING

A healing vibration

roots run di riddim

ground shake, heart break
earthquake - deep in your soul!

Roots run di riddim

NI RE ERU ACOUSTIC

Yo check it
Negative thoughts come easy seen
Like breathing or blinking, automatic ting

But positive vibes take work 
Take strength and courage to make it through the dark

But we rise up daily
(Yay I) we rise up daily

KRS-one said if negativity comes with a .22
Then positivity must come with a .45 


Dark energy weak but light energy strong
Choose your weapon, play your song


When babylon try fi drag you down low
Stand firm pon the rock, let your light show

Yin and yang balance keep your soul free
Connect with your roots and your family tree

Positive force is the only way
overcome darkness day by day


Roots Selectah! Show dem how we do it
(bless up positive vibrations, charge up roots sensations)


Some man wake up and curse the morning
Wise man wake up and count his blessings

Wise man know the secret already
Heavy is the head but the heart stay steady

If you find yourself struggling to find the positive vibrations
turn your face to the sun and start a meditation

feel the healing sensations with no hesitation
let your soul light up with blessings and levitation

(Rise up, smile my  people, and breathe)

Smile my people



Roots selectah, teach the youth dem
Find the light and blaze up!
(blaze up the positive vibrations, one love, all nations)


Light always wins in the darkness
Love always finds what the heart miss

Strength always comes through the struggle
Jah bless the righteous journey through the concrete jungle

Analog Dakar Club for Radio Alhara: « Jamm ak jamm » (Peace and only Peace)

For our 34th show @radioalhara we delve deeper into the vibrant African music landscape of the mid-1980s. This was a transformative decade, defined by a spirit of global exchange that resonated across cultures and continents.

Pioneers like Ray Lema (Zaire) and Salif Keïta (Mali) fused their musical heritage with Anglo-Saxon influences, crafting a sound that remained unmistakably raw and rooted in tradition. Meanwhile, Senegal’s Xalam, Thione Seck, and the legendary Youssou N’Dour propelled Mbalax into modernity, infusing it with new energy. In Ghana, Burger Highlife (we should say "Gruyère" Highlife:-) flirted with electrofunk, while Nigeria’s IMO funk cast its gaze toward Brooklyn’s burgeoning scene.

Track list :

Manu Dibango : « Tropical garden » (Fiesta - 362.018) 1979
Ray Lema : "Dansometer Reprise" (Instrumental) (Celluloid – CEL 6756) 1985

Ghetto Blaster : "Life Is Just A Party" (Blackframe Production – 8600) 1985
Xalam : "Doley" (Encore ! – ENC 134C) 1986
Thione Seck : "Jongoma" (Socadisc – 345315) 1988

Jamm ak Jamm (Peace and Only Peace) / Alhara Radio 11.09.25

We propose a new Constitution for a New World. One Love. Lyrics and Music, Yao Olagbedji and the Afrocosmos Revolutionary Band of Togo.

NEW CONSTITUTION

About those foolish borders, this is "Aflao" performed by Yao Olagbedji and the Afrocosmos Revolution Band of Togo

AFLAO

Singer-songwriter, arranger and producer from Togo, Yao Olagbedji, musically affirms his filiation to the legends, Bob Marley, Fela Kuti and Miles Davis. They subtly inspire his music, but also his messages. Always with in the background, a desire for independence to promote an original sound and a message that resonates with an Africa in full boiling, as an echo of his first album "Alerte en Afrique" produced in the early 2000s. This production is powered by the African Syndicate Band.
ASB is also open to promote militant artists.

☀️ Sunryez sounds are fueled by pure passion and curiosity - a special blend of reggae-fusion, hip-hop, downtempo, island-trap, dubtronica, and global beats into something new and invigorating— like stepping into a world you didn’t know existed. Sunryez doesn't care about trends or pop algorithms — he’s manifesting a new vibe in music, one beat at a time, with nothing but heart and intuition as the guide.

His sound is raw and boundless, a global mashup fueled by heavy basslines, rich rhythms, and an ear for the unexpected. Sunryez pulls inspiration from everywhere—organic sounds from nature, vintage samples, and the latest breakthroughs in audio technology—recycling and reshaping them into music that transcends traditional genre lines. It’s about breaking the mold and finding freedom in reinvention.
