Haile Selassie I paintings | Ras Elijah Tafari

When we Rise let us Reflect the Goodness and High Honor to be called by His Name and to declare Emperor Haile Selassie I is the King of all Kings. As a Ras, as well as personally, My entire purpose is to exclaim and proclaim that the King has Come. That Our Redemption is at hand. As I have said before, His Name, Emperor Haile Selassie, Ras Tafari is an unadulterated name. A Name of Jah that is uncorrupted by Babylon and the multiple languages that make up English. It is Older than all that and yet was given so we can see the relationship of Jah to Man. The Power of the Trinity. The importance of having found the Original Source. It is that source I want everyone to know, it is that source that I tap into every morning. Bless Jah, Give thanks for Jah, Keep a Pure Heart for Jah, For He is. Say what you will, but no one can remove Emperor Haile Selassie I as being the Conquering Lion of Judah and the King of Kings, no one can change that we all came out of Ethiopia and humanity will always be the children of Ethiopia. Children of Jah, in His Likeness and Image. In HIM is everyone. Jah Rastafari!

AKAEBEKATAOS

Before Auto tune, Before dancing singers there was ROOTS REGGAE, Before there was Hip Hop, before there was Reggae there was Nyabinghi. Nyabinghi and the sound of the Heart is imperative in understanding Roots Reggae and the prophetical experience that has been part of an Oral legacy handed down by Major Prophets like Isaiah and Jeremiah, and Iyesus the Christ. When speaking of Akae Beka, and previously as Midnite, in his own words, ” Isiah wasn’t an entertainer.” When looking at the difference of musicians rarely will you find one that is a voice in the wilderness that cries both warnings and insights into the realms of Jah.

Some will call his “fans” cult followers due to our love and honor of the man, Vaughn Benjamin. If Cult is short for Culture, I have no problem with that. His change of name to Akae Beka will inspire thousands to read the book of Enoch and think about the meanings and messages. He music demands ones read in order to be educated, both religious works as well as secular and to choose the right. He brings to attention the call to be ONE and unchanging in our oath to the Creator. Few reach the heights he calls us to look at in reference to who we are and can be. His coming to New Mexico is a momentous occasion and one that will bring together the Children of the King and Queen of Kings. I my short life, I have never have I seen the magnetic pull and words to bring a sound of truth so liberating that I have to be there..It is beyond a joy, his words bring peace and inspiration to that which makes I create. If my art had a sound track it would be his poetry. I and many rank him as the greatest poet that has ever lived, and though it may take refinement, when ones actually hear what he is saying no one uses words more carefully and eloquently. We get entangled into the sound of sharp and healing tones and often miss the sober and serious recognitions of the time and call he brings. The show in Taos Sunday, Dec. 16th will be historic in our common bond that Emperor Haile Selassie I has been placed in our lives to be a beacon and light, a personal call from Himself and from the four corners of the Earth. One that many have submitted to, and to be in the presence of those, is to be in the presence of Greatness. It is those who are humble enough to sit and know that on the streets, we know who is for us, we have allies, through Jah, Akae Beka across the Earth has been there in the sticks. In New Mexico, 9 Albums have been made for Midnite to Akae Beka. It is through the hard work of so many that it all comes together. Big Up and thank you to everyone who has helped and nurtured good relations. Thank Roots and Wire, Jerry and company, FifthSon Records, and Dre-Z Melodi and company ( you know who you are!). It is Our honor to Salute the whole Crew and each other in acknowledgment that Jah is with us, let us do His work. Haile I, Selassie I, Jah Rastafari.

Here are a few pieces that done in honor of the Emperor, Our Jah and King, and those who are singers and players of instruments of Zion. All I Springs are in thee.
