FUNKY MORRISON

 

funkymorrison takes us on a journey between the past and present of African reggae music. The awareness typical of Jamaican Rasta music in Africa has taken on an increasingly significant value over the years in the denunciation and struggle and still today there are many artists who make it the standard-bearer of the name of Jah Rastafari.

However, today it is difficult to associate the lyrics and the themes, but above all also the music itself, from the Jamaican dancehall to the original Roots reggae of the 70s-80s. even in Mama Africa, today, it becomes difficult to combine “reggae” with the current rhythms and styles of the music produced in the different areas of the continent. Its musical relevance is in fact more its own than Afrobeat and the many musical labels coined to define the different genres between the various countries of the continent. In short, it is only a question of "labels" but in the end "music is music ..." and the important thing is that "when it plays you don't feel pain"
