Raggamuffin by Anthony B & Irie Ites

We just told you about it a few days ago and it did drop. Check the latest from legendary chanter and the original fireman, Anthony B, 'Raggamuffin', which reaches across the ASAP Riddim via Irie Ites. Easily one of the strongest tunes from Anthony B in recent times, 'Raggamuffin' is BIG! The press release I read (if I did read it correctly) said that II would reveal the rest of the tracks on the riddim sometime next week and I'm damn looking forward to it because the early results have been special.

"Man a raggamuffin

Ragga ragga, man a raggamuffin

So no matta wha you hear dem ah talk, dem caan do wi nuttin

Man a raggamuffin

Ragga ragga ragga raggamuffin

Mi hair and mi clothes ragga ragga, but my heart is full of love


Wi no si nobody weh wi fear

Shout it loud and clear

Si di enemies dem out there

But wi still ah say love and care

Wi no si nobody weh wi fear

Shout it loud and clear

A time fi di wicked dem disappear

Cah dem ah destroy di atmosphere, yuh hear?

DON'T BE SO JUDGMENTAL 

DON'T JUDGE I, YOU DON'T KNOW I POTENTIAL

As you si mi, you ah ask bout credential

Memba mi a Ras, mi no dread weh a rental

Hey, so a time fi check yah mental

Cah di message in di music is essential

Hail Rastafari: The Eternal

Bobo man stand up in Jah Army as a Colonel!


Man a raggamuffin

Ragga ragga, man a raggamuffin

So no matta wha you hear dem ah talk, dem caan do wi nuttin

Man a raggamuffin

Ragga ragga ragga raggamuffin

Mi hair and mi clothes ragga ragga, but my heart is full of love


Babylon caan mek Rastaman run

So get up, stand up and come

Thy will must be done

And I will overcome

Babylon caan mek Rastaman run

So get up, stand up and come

Dem caan stop di fyah from bun-

Underneath Jah Jah star and sun

I ah bring a message from Jamrock

From wi ah lift up soundsystem pon van back

Yeah, it's not easy when yuh born Black

So wi haffi rise up and look beyond that

I never join no gang and buss shot

I become a musician and grow my dreadlocks

So I keep on looking forward, mi no look back

And I hope everybody can get that


Man a raggamuffin

Ragga ragga, man a raggamuffin

So no matta wha you hear dem ah talk, dem caan do wi nuttin

Man a raggamuffin

Ragga ragga ragga raggamuffin

Mi hair and mi clothes ragga ragga, but my heart is full of love


Wi no si nobody weh wi fear

Shout it loud and clear

Si di enemies dem out there

But wi still ah say love and care

Wi no si nobody weh wi fear

Shout it loud and clear

A time fi di wicked dem disappear

Cah dem ah destroy di atmosphere, yuh hear?

Don't be so judgmental

Don't judge I, you don't know I potential

As you si mi, you ah ask bout credential

Memba mi a Ras, mi no dread weh a rental

Hey, so a time fi check yah mental

Cah di message in di music is essential

Hail Rastafari: The Eternal

Bobo man stand up in Jah Army as a Colonel!


Man a raggamuffin

Ragga ragga, man a raggamuffin

So no matta wha you hear dem ah talk, dem caan do wi nuttin

Man a raggamuffin

Ragga ragga ragga raggamuffin

Mi hair and mi clothes ragga ragga, but my heart is full of love"
