The Urban Daily met with MC K’Naan and producer/DJ J.Period to discuss their project, “The Messengers” which pays tribute to Bob Marley, Fela Kuti and Bob Dylan. You can download it for free at www.jperiod.com.
They nailed it. Solid gold. Three legends of music rightly honoured. Fela I saw play live many times, The King of African music, the creator of the sweet sounding Afrobeat, social critic, the conscience of a nation and continent. Robert Nester Marley, made reggae acceptable to the world, please listen to his album “Rebel music” be inspired and Bob Dylan, extraordinary vocalist, poet lyricist and thinker. Respect to J.Period and the Dusty foot Philosopher you did good.
Multi-cultural ways of expressing resistance against OPRESSION IN THE AFRICAN DIASPORA from Robert Nesta Marley & Fela Anikulapo Kuti.
Also a white liberal against OPRESSION Bob Dylan sounds like some positive vibes.
