flipper1 Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 F.U. drei.. changing religions ka pa dyan.. there is no such thing as a pinoy rastafarian.. damn u... havnt seen this forum i forgot about this.. first of all very childish cursing out sum1.. second how bout a lil thinking before bushing?? third. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rastafari_movement)Rastafari today Rastafari is not a highly organized religion. In fact, some Rastas say that it is not a "religion" at all, but a "way of Life". Today, many Rastas are not just Black African, but are as diverse a crowd as White, Māori, Indonesian, etc. Most Rastas do not identify with any sect or denomination, and thus are encouraged by others in the faith to find inspiration by themselves, though there are three prominent mansions of Rastafari: the Nyahbinghi, the Bobo Ashanti and the Twelve Tribes of Israel. By claiming Jah as the returned Jesus, Rastafari is a new religious movement that has arisen from Christianity, much as Christianity arose from Judaism. In 1996, the Rastafari movement worldwide was given consultative status by the United Nations. Also, the word "Rastaman" in 1990s obtained a special meaning in Post-Soviet states. After the fall of the USSR, a youth subculture of marijuana users formed, primarily in Russia and Ukraine, many of whom began to call themselves "Rastamany" ("растаманы", in plural). They borrowed a number of symbols from Rastafari culture including Reggae music (especially honoring Bob Marley), green-yellow-red colors, sometimes dreadlocks and other appearance, but not Afrocentrism (most are ethnically Slavic). Many of them protest against something they call "Babylon". A special Russian Reggae scene developed which is only partly similar to common reggae. Rastamany have their own folklore, publish literature and records, as well as create websites and form online communities. so next time u try to mouth of to people who know their stuff maybe u should do a lil thinking first.. just a lil. dont make ur brain explode...

Oshen- is the name of the jah person , sometimes O-shen. his style is much more like of a beach music so relaxing.. can't get you enough of it when you started to listen to his music.. "Nation of Confusion" All the things thats happenin around me got me stressinSociety leaves me with so many unanswered questionDestruction of the planet and of nature and of culture and the way of lifesimple way of lifeWe strong minded simple people got no sanctuaryThe load is getting heavy on our backs that we must carryMy cup is overflowing what they call reality is here today and thengone tomorrow Chorus:And you're lost in the nation of confusionAnd the bright future seems just like an illusion on the horizon oh yeah <-- i love this line I say you're lost in the nation of confusionAnd the bright future seems just like an illusion on the horizon oh yeah Where do we jobless youths we tell into this pictureThe poor are getting poorer you know the rich them getting richerThey made the life revolve around this evil being paper and with out it nowwe dont have a thing (repeat verse 2) Rap:No can look in TV too mai sem biya mani nuForget the video or walk in something we no doOr boderup in thinking belong one young fellaBabylon he likes the lim casablo upela Chorus:repeat verse 1:Instrumental: We are the simple people and we sayStrong through ever changing present dayContentive character will lead our wayAnd we no go a stray go a stray(repeat) Chorus:repeat rap: Times are getting crazy and we got no where to run awayThinking that they moving forward when they moving reverse today let me hear some feedbacks if ever you guys have listened to it!.. have fun in the beach!
