Kananjah fights for the black race
Reggae artiste Kananjah is not fond of labels. He believes that labels are used to box people in. However, he accepts and defends his role as a revolutionary, an iconoclast, who is willing to push back against the status quo to carve out a better life for people of colour.
“Certain people online have bombarded my page in the United Kingdom. They are saying Kananjah is an anti-establishment artiste without a solution. Yes, I am antiestablishment because the establishment is anti-God and anti-Christ. It’s anti- justice, anti-mercy, anti-truth, and anti-life, but I am not anti-anything, I am pro-enlightenment for the black race,” Kananjah said.
“I, Kananjah, am not a racist, but I am a race protectionist. I am not a politician, but I am a political revolutionist. I am not religious, but a religious revolutionist. About the establishment, Bob (Marley) said there is no solution, total destruction, no one can stop it. I agree with him,” he continued.
Kananjah has been getting a lot of flak online from right-wing interests for his single, Defiance, a call to his fellow brothers and sisters to defy and resist an oppressive system designed to relegate them to poverty and misery.
The Defiance single was released in February on the artiste’s label, Abba-Taqel label. The video is playing on local cable channels, and the single has been gaining traction in regions of Europe and Africa, so much so that he is slated to go to Sweden soon to work with a producer on a number of tracks.
