Kabaka Pyramid, Damian Marley highlight the ‘Red Gold & Green’
Kabaka Pyramid and Damian 'Jr Gong' Marley have united their musical synergy to highlight the significance of three colours to the Rastafarian tradition and reggae music with a single titled Red, Gold & Green.
Not only is Marley featured, but he is also the producer of the track. Kabaka Pyramid is known for songs like Warrior, Well Done and Can't Breathe, which focused on the underprivileged who are often overlooked by society, as well as Reggae Music and Nice Up the Dance that took on fun, entertaining lives of their own as strong representations of Jamaican culture. His debut album, Kontraband, was met with critical acclaim, containing hits such as the title track, which features Marley and Kaught Up with a popular music video that found a home on BET.
" Red, Gold & Green is really getting at the root of the Ethiopian flag as a symbol of Rastafari globally and what it really means from our perspective, the ones who live it, and what it means to carry this message through the music," Kabaka Pyramid explained.
While he sings about the significance of maintaining the tradition despite changing times, Marley waxes poetic about the link between Ethiopia, Haile Selassie I and the Rastafari tradition.
"When we wave the banner around the world, we bring the teachings and inspiration of Haile Selassie I to masses, some who see the depths of Rastafari and some who just see it as a style and strictly music. We want people to know that we take our tradition and heritage seriously and that these colours have a deeper meaning than just a colourful brand. All are welcomed to join the vibration but it's also good to take some time to get to know the king and add meaning to these divine colours," Kabaka Pyramid added.
