"Judgement Day" 4ft x 2.5ft Acrylic and Indian Ink. Ras Elijah Tafari

Vision of the Judgement/Reflections on the last days of Babylon

A heavy and blessed mediations was given to InI on a phone call from Ras Sadiki-I. First, Ras Sadiki-I is a man I have long respected and feel is an authentic messenger and vessel of the Most High Jah. Those of you familiar with his work and mission of building the New Temple for the Ark of the Covenant know that the Almighty speaks and achieves mighty works through this brother.

We reasoned on many things and one subject was on the Judgement. We have all been around those who think the end of the world is coming, and some are scientists..there has always been a host of thoughts, some logical, some not about how the World will have a reckoning for their actions. Some ( most ) believe it will also happen through the passing of the body and the meeting of their maker inevitably.  The personnel experiences one has is what creates the faith they carry, our experience is in the Scriptures. We have see The Most High reveal Himself already through Emperor Haile Selassie I as the Conquering Lion of Judah.  When we look at the Greatness of the works accomplished by the King of Kings, one asks what more can Jah do for man that man cannot do for himself. His Imperial Majesty left certain works for us to accomplish. One of those is end the use of Nuclear weapons and testing. Emperor Haile Selassie I spoke many times about how this is imperative to our collective survival. Nuclear weapons are also a unique weapon for what we believe is Satan to use in order to break down the achievements of peaceful evolution. It is the lowest of blows, because it makes no sense, even from a capitalist, pirate perspective. The idea that destroying the food supply and contaminate the air for the whole planet due to a dispute as an option is insane. It is total madness, and has its root in a satanic ploy to destroy mankind. What I also find interesting is that most people are most inherently worried about a Nuclear War as mankind’s ultimate stupidity and downfall. The whole “Doomsday Clock” if you have heard of it, is totally based on the number of Nuclear weapons and likeness of use current to the present.

The audacity to decide to spit an atom, is beyond symbolically evil, it is evil.  It is the key to why they are divided in themselves. That the plot is to make you implode, as well as a bomb. It is also evidence of that which smaller than you can see, that which is invisible, has the ability to burn and destroy for thousands of years..It is the evidence that there is more than an unseen world, that this unseen world, that we get peaks of, contains evil, as well as good.

I could go on about how nuclear weapons changed foreign policy and the potential for collective security internationally, that the Nuclear arms race was planned in order to return to a method of a nation with the biggest weapons rules the world..but instead I will speak on guilt.

I was reasoning with my daughter who is now 13 about how we are born into this, and we are guilty by association. I didn’t want to take it to the Garden of Eden when we live in a beautiful, and highly radioactive state. Both naturally as well as unnaturally, due to the high amounts of Uranium as the massive storage, development, building and waste, we have more than 2000 Nuclear weapons in the Mountains as well as leaking nuclear waste. Our State is so ignorant that we have a baseball team named the Isotopes, and museums celebrating Nuclear bombs. Its sick, and if we, if bombed by a country that the US was threatening with Nuclear weapons attacked, we would be somewhat guilty of our own demise because we live next to the mountain full of nuclear weapons. She understood, that together with many others, we didn’t choose it, but we are all in it, accept a few nations, who may seem poor now, but if all the bombs blew up where they were, only the nations that collectively said no, and heeded The Words of Rastafari would make it..

This is where the vision starts.. The Most High promised Noah that He would never destroy all of Mankind again, and that never again would a flood wipe out the Earth. (Genesis 9.) He also sent the sign of the Rainbow as a covenant, that is what the Ethiopian Flag stands for.  When in the book of 2nd Peter chapter 3, liken to what Ras Sadiki-I said, that the Most High does not want to destroy mankind, that is there doing, and choice, that we could repent..2Lukechpt.9  ”The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.”

It goes on in the same chapter to say that a great fire is coming that will make a New Heaven and New Earth. We reasoned that many Ras also think He will come again, and Ras Sadiki-I agreed there will be one more advent, a third advent. He said we haven’t seen the anti Christ yet,..things will get much worse.. He asked I, what do I think the nations would do if they saw Jah come out of the clouds with His Ark Angels? I said they would attack, he said “yesI,” They would war and bomb God.. Being that we have a Lovely and Caring Jah, knowing what is pre-destined, would permit Justice, though it was man’s choice, to also reap the repercussions. The Nuclear bombs that are launched will be sent to the same place they were launched. Each Nation will reap what they sow, those who dug there their brothers grave will fall in it. Those who try to attack Jah will only attack and destroy themselves.  The painting shows how the bombs returning to their origin, and the only nations left are those that don’t have nuclear weapons. As a continent, Africa will be only one that will make it. A New Earth and New Heaven, will begin then in its next stage. This was the vision, and I began painting…

"Judgement Day" 4ft x 2.5ft Acrylic and Indian Ink. Ras Elijah Tafari

“Judgement Day” 4ft x 2.5ft Acrylic and Indian Ink. Ras Elijah Tafari

I thought to myself what does it all mean, as far as application..Should I save and run to Africa, should I make bold moves to alert and organize in the fight for a Nuclear free world? Or is there an even deeper message..I thought and I realized I have been here mentally before. There is a way of Living that consists of reckoning within ones self to make atonement for the future through present doings. Making Jah your friend and sticking with HIM knowing there is no doubt to whom I serve. Knowing its not about being perfect, but striving for perfection, knowing our imperfections are just a place for us to have faith in the pursuit of Perfection. Live every day like its Judgement day tomorrow. Ready to embrace the inevitable. If this is pre-destined, then what should we do?  Well nothing has changed, other than we may have to accept we won’t win, and it isn’t about winning. Its about what did you do, and say, how did you live, when it simply about accounting for whether you found what a full life means. Did you grow in Love, or hide in fear. We are eternal beings, so the attachment to the body is demeaning to the Soul. What is important is doing what the Soul needs to do to get closer and closer to Jah, in Perfect Love. Whether we are shot down, or arrested isn’t as important as did you do something that stood for Righteousness in the battle. How you look at yourself, and how Jah see’s you is what matters..because that is what we take with us. Whether is a Nuclear fallout, or a car accident tomorrow, did you do what Jah asked you..? Did you learn how to be ONE.? Have you Guarded yourself with the Armor Jah has provided? He has given Us, Children of the God of Ethiopia, the God of Abraham a New Name, to be written on Our Head. That He would have a New Name that is the Word of God. Rastafari is who we are, Haile Selassie I is His New Name.  Haile meaning Power and Virtue, of Selassie meaning, The Trinity, Jah the Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit. As ONE Jah. First. The Root of David has given us a mission. The Conquering Lion watches and weeps.

Most of All Give Thanks to The Creator of the Heavens and the Earth, for allowing us to be, and to experience the Love and Salvation that prepares for now and for ever.  In the Name of Jah the Father, Jah the Son, Jah the Holy Spirit. ONE JAH. Amen.

“RED COALS” NEW ALBUM COMING OUT JULY 1ST. EVENTS INCLUDED.

Blessed Love, it is an honor to speak about music, and this album is a reflection of the times through InI. Each album I have made has a different vibe, due to the audience and sometimes the riddims. Making music for many in the Rastafari movement is not about selling albums or exposure, it is a prayer recorded. It is us going into a box (our body) and then going into another box ( the studio) and making our Temple alight the Temple outside to praise Jah and part of that goes into another box called a computer. It is a sanctuary for those who have no contemporary church, and have found freedom and liberation in the using the best equipment to create sounds of praise. By the Love of Jah, brother and producer Colin “Diles” of Visceral View Entertainment shared his knowledge and space to make this special album. All original beats from Diles, mixed and mastered at Central Root Studio. We had been working together for 6 years on the Green Chile in the Air albums, which are great and worth checking out. They feature classic underground artists, from NM to Chicago to Oakland.

Red Coals, is a album with a message and a mission. Haile Meditative and in a spectrum of sounds, it is a call to come to Rastafari and know the Powers of Emperor Haile Selassie I are with us. It is a mix of genres, and can’t be labeled specifically. Check out the description below..

The album has some great guests..Give thanks for the royal representatives of Right.

I had a lot of fun with this one..Sometimes certain feeling emerge that comes from identification..you have to have know it to recognize it. From the start of this painting I could see the attitude and power in the face and the lines..I didn’t want that rawness to go away. This piece took a lot of work to make it look so easy, and it was demanding that the woman in the painting be respected and not exploited..The eventual decision to make her pregnant seemed most fitting, for what can make a woman more royal than to adore and care for our future kings and queens, artists and musicians, fathers and mothers, in the tradition of Our ancestors.

 Comfortable Frustration.
 There are many things with in this piece, and what comes to the surface is that in the chaos and clutter there is a frustration that is not anger but in the midst of finding peace. Peace is offered by very few lines that bring composition to the piece and express that stick like order can be enough to bring comfort with blue to greens and yellows allowing “the fall” to have its place.

A favorite piece of mine, About the dynamics of elements and opposites that work together but are not the same and are often opposed.

yet to get along
 Yet to get along.
A piece that uses the oldest of our collective faith in the symbolism of an African woman with tattoos on her face to the most recent of religions, Islam that seems to have a disconnection to Africa Roots. The contrast of the hard and cold, to the soft and mud like texture of her face, as is his posture, being rigid and unemotional connect the abstract to modern issues and thoughts.. He has eyes but they do not see her. In some ways it is a commentary to how Islam in Africa has a serious issue with indigenous beliefs and tribes. The constant conflict is evidence that we have “yet to get along.” This piece is the intro into the next series that deal with African suffrage and freedom. 12″x16″ Indian Ink and Acrylic. 300.00

We are creators of Culture, and therefore a revolutionary life force of the people through creative action. I hope you enjoy the next pieces.
Music is freedom.
Music is Freedom

This piece is part of a three part series focusing on freedom in the midst of oppression. Using many shades of blues and browns, the loneliness and pain is eased only by a stereo. Where naked, alone in chains, is just the surface of a rich coat of music that helps most of us cope every day. The importance that the arts play in an isolated society is the importance of a key to a prison door. Slight influence from Miles Davis, Kinda Blue.

the brush is freedom
Painting is Freedom.
Set in a mud like prison, in the day time, the space and emptiness represents potential. While the man represents the
Black Nation, strong and in our prime, still chained and if we get tired or let our head down we will strangle ourself. The Focus on the brush is the focus on freedom. That this is it, art is culture, culture are revolutions of people in themselves. This revolution is Life creating itself. So it is, The Brush is Freedom. 36″x 24″ Indian Ink, Acrylic, Copper metallic. 500.00
The Mike is freedom
The Mike is Freedom.
In the last of the series, We have the a straightjacket on the Dread Locked Ras. This represents the labeling of America on Black Rage and that our only output often is making poetry and recording our thoughts. That the way to break the grip of insanity is to yell out what is sane and insane, simply to remind self and any listening in such a crazy world that Microphone is the outlet, input and key to freedom. 12″x12″ Acrylic and Indian Ink. 275.00
Sudan
 Sudan.
This is a piece about the odd life that many are in within Africa and in the Sudan specifically. Tied in a world where tradition has both betrayed and saved us, we are introduced to the west, and whether we like it or not, they have intruded and we are wearing the results of a modern western legacy. To who made the borders, to who makes the weapons, We live in two worlds, loosing power in both as we adapt. Pencil, 11″x17″ 450.00

The World on My Back.
Abstract and modern, this piece represents what many feel as the world grows heavier and colder. Cut and bleeding on the back of all people should be Earth with Africa center. In our daily lives I wonder if ones know that there is a wound that is bleeding in the heart and backs of men, and that until WE are all free, we are not yet free.
