Il video lyrics “Banton” uscito il 15 maggio 2020 è il secondo singolo estratto dal prossimo imminente album di Paolo Baldini DubFIles, un progetto in collaborazione con Imperial Sound Army.
Il nuovo brano è una featuring vocale dove si alternano Akae Beka e Fikir Amlak, dove le voci si fondono in un sound molto gradevole.
Banton è stato anticipato dal video del singolo We Rasta, disponibile su YouTube, dove alla voce troviamo il cantante e soundman Dan I.
Il produttore e musicista pordenonese Paolo Baldini ha annunciato che il nuovo disco intitolato Dolomites Rockers uscirà il 29 maggio 2020, e vede la partecipazione di numerosi artisti della scena reggae e dub internazionale (tra cui Akae Beka, Fikir Amlak e Benji Revelation).
Il disco, in uscita per La Tempesta Dub, etichetta di cui Baldini cura la direzione artistica assieme ai Mellow Mood.

TESTO:
Stimulation mental
Keeping the vibes alive
Yah inna the world street
Depth of people that know the lows and highs
Inhumane overstanding
Should Jah make their paths collide
All who can balance their mental eyes
Upon their principal side
All who would feel it and empathize
When ugly circumstances rise
HAILE I SELASSIE I THE FIRST over
All the princes of guile
Over rhetorical flare
Over rhetorical flare and style
Behold all concepts of light
And implement it to rise
Inna the E.R.
Inna full surgical garments of light
The Emperor himself
When the lord of spirits sent his Christ
As love of the truth
And that love alone oh will suffice
Story teller from the ancient cellar
Keeper of the legend and the Kushite dweller
Angel ah talk when the griot ah whisper
And the rain it ah fall, no umbrella
Words of wisdom like a boat and propeller
Ancient talk coming like an acapella
Roots tea bubble with the great sarsaparilla
Be true to your word, in your cerebella
Biggest tree yo I could ah fell ah
We ah small axe and we bust like Fela
Ras to the bone mi nuh inna no novela
High up in the mountain snow like Sierra
Drum and bass coming like a real guerilla
Liberation sound, warrior no vanilla
Coded speech like the ancient pillar
Boaz and Joachim enigma…
We are the Banton, we are the Banton
Anywhere we go, yeah we are the Banton
We are the Banton Ras are Banton
Yeah, African Banton
We are the Banton, we are the Banton
Anywhere we go, yeah we are the Banton
We are the Banton Ras are Banton
Yeah, African Banton
The Emperor inna the breach
To inite the divine
Some will refuse his way
And desynchronize
And disintegrate instead of holding the love real tight
And make more war than peace outright
The Emperor inna the breach
To inite the divine
Some will refuse his way
And desynchronize
And disintegrate instead of holding the love real tight
And make more war than peace outright
The Emperor inna the breach
To inite the divine
Some will refuse his way
And desynchronize
And disintegrate instead of holding the love real tight
And make more war than peace outright
18 Pharaoh’s sat upon the golden throne
Ethiopian Kushite built way before Rome
Where Memnon and Emathion were born
Rulers of Arabia remember your home
Land where the Gods live no Olympian zone
Cepheus and Cassopoeia, rulers of old
Empress Candace, rulers of Syrian town
All the Mediterranean, Red Sea, Indus Nile ground
Azanian race is the same Bantu now
Son of Vulcan down there yeah, Priest Manetho
Land of sunburnt people so Hesiod spoke
Tall and handsome, longest livers
Rasta hold the crown…
We are the Banton, we are the Banton
Obvious see it and deny the Iniverse is infinite
We are the Banton
While they fire up inna bottle and ah riot in this time yeah
Banton
Agitators refusing to be quiet and they are all mobilized
African Banton
And politicians do what will be hidden from the public’s eye
Banton
Look at the scandals that are rocking the political divide
Banton
The same Hitler cabinet melt down time
Banton
African Banton
