Honored at home as the conscience of the people, he depicts in his interviews what each and every one of us lives and experiences. “I AM NEITHER LEFT NOR RIGHT; I AM OF THE PEOPLE”. One of The PHARAOH’s hit songs “UP RISIN’ sums up the striking mercurial call for JUSTICE and WORLD PEACE:
RISE, RISE, RISE UP
RIGHT TIME HAS COME FOR YOU MY BRETHREN
WAKE FROM YOUR SLEEP AND SLUMBER
STAND FIRM AND FIGHT RASTA…
