Ises,
Well,i dont want this to turn into a discussion about Sizzla or his militancy or whatever, that was not i intent in putting up the video, so i will leave him for now except to say one of the reasons why i did put it up is because i love people like that, who think quick on their feet.
Seen, you have to sight what is happening when babylon asks question,same things they try to do with Christ,same with Selassie I, same things they do now,you know, they have this slick way of asking questions,they act like they agree with what you are saying but all they do is think of ways to tie you up, to make you say something that will back you into a corner.And thats why i LOVE the way Sizzla answered that question, no way that man there expected that answer, the answer he was expecting is what i sight everyone here saying, you can hear, soon as Sizzla says "beautiful" the man was like "Waah?", its good he didnt fall off his chair there, haha. And so you have to keep it when dealing in babylon, keep them on a need to know basis, there are things not for their ears at all. I mean how would it have looked if Sizzla had stood there and started badmouthing his Rasta brethren? Make babylon happy`? burn that. Because i am sure if most of you here think about it, you would guess just like i do that Sizzla would have much more to say about this thing when he is just reasoning with his other Ras idren, dont you think?
Other than that, as hard as it seems that some of the i them are taking this, i iself cannot bring myself to take this seriously at all.Perhaps i am not seeing something that the i them can see.
I mean, can anyone tell i, how this harms ini in anyway?, i mean really. what did do? get Rasta in the newspapers? thats it? i dont have any problem with that. A few more people know of ini, cool. Alright, the image might not be what ini want to project to the world, but come now, did any of you really expect babylon to suddenly change its ways and give Rastafari its proper due? If anyone has, then you are more optimistic than i. I might add as well, that though the photo just shows them sitting there and smiling, i dont know what was said to charles about Rastafari and ini cause,so i cant say anything on that
Ok, so it might all be a big joke to mr charles there, but so what?
I dont care, and i dont know why anyone else would.Lets Say you heard tomorrow that charles had bought some drums for himself and he is sitting in his palace drumming all day, are you going to get mad at that as well? No, i wouldnt think so, so what makes this any special?because its in JA?lol, he didnt try and go to BoboHill, he didnt go to no real Hola ground, he went to a death museum,he knows what he is doing
Perhaps the i them consider,as Sis Ten has mentioned, that it is a sacred ritual (i will admit i dont like that, too religious sounding for my taste, rituals and things, not saying anything on you sis Ten but anyway) but lets examine that
What makes it sacred? is it the drums? i dont think so
Is it not the intent behind it, is it not the cleanliness of the hands that play it, the purity of the hearts that carry the sounds, is it not the righteous word sound and power that accompany it, is that not what makes it sacred ? So you tell i what kind of sanctity is the drum going to have in the hands of one such as Mr charles
And if any power was to come out from those drums, only mr charles heart would crumble right there, he would be like the unclean one who dares to come before the Ark of the JAh covenant, Fyah and brimstone.
But as you can sight,no power there, he played it and went on his merry way
As far as comparing this to the movie world and things i find it unnecessary, this is babylon after all, right? I mean its just like what they do with herbs. Think back, have you ever, ever seen, a movie where herbs is shown in any kind of positive light......any?
Yes, i love the movie Friday too lol, but of the two friends who is the messed up one with no job,no girl,no future ? SMOKEY lol...........and so it goes. no surprises there.
Forgive i,if i am taking this too lightly,but..so i feel about it
Blessed Love
RASTAFARI
