"I sing songs of rebel harmony to balance me and help me break these mental and societal chains.

With love everything is possible. With love, life isn't an obstacle. The art form of music is a communication device, which can send good, or bad, frequencies through the air waves. Therefore, it is important for us to create original, positive music to shine or reflect onto a suffering nation.

Rhythm: balance in life, natural progression that correlates with equality. Through the guidance of the Most High, Jah Rastafari, my spirit is as free as a song roaming around as echoes in your head, an ever rising crescent." - Abja Abja is a powerful performer whose spirit and energy transmits to everyone around him.
