African


" AFRICAN
Don't care where you come from
As long as you're a black man
You're an African
(CHORUS)
No mind your nationality
You have got the identity of an African
'Cause if you come from Clarendon
And if you come from Portland
And if you come from Westmoreland
You're an African
CHORUS
No mind your nationality
You've got the identity of an African
'Cause if you come Trinidad
And if you come from Nassau
And if you come from Cuba
You're an African
CHORUS
No mind your complexion
There is no rejection
You're an African
'Cause if your plexion
High(3x)
If your complexion low, low, low
And if your plexion in between
You're an African
CHORUS
No mind denomination
That is only segregation
You're an African
'Cause if you go to the Catholic
And if you go to the Methodist
And if you go to the Church of Gods
You're an African
CHORUS
No mind your nationality
You have got the identity of an African
'Cause if you come from Brixton
And if you come from Weesday
And if you come from Wingstead
And if you come from France
...Brooklyn
...Queens
...Manhattan
...Canada
...Miami
...Switzerland
...Germany
...Russia
...Taiwan
here"

Biografia

Peter Tosh, born Winston Hubert McIntosh (1944-1987), was a legendary Jamaican singer, guitarist, and political activist. Considered one of the pillars of reggae, he began his career as a member of The Wailers, alongside Bob Marley and Bunny Wailer. After the group's dissolution, Tosh embarked on a highly successful solo career, characterized by a harder and more politically charged sound, influenced by Rastafarianism and the fight for civil rights. Among his most famous songs are "Legalize It", "Equal Rights" and "Get Up, Stand Up". Tosh always used his music as a tool to protest against oppression and discrimination, becoming a symbol of resistance and freedom. His life was marked by contrasts and tragedies, culminating in his assassination in 1987. Tosh remains an iconic figure of reggae and world music, remembered for his powerful voice, energetic performances, and social commitment.
