Always Remember The Road I Travel
June 27, 2006
Burning Spear

Hey Hey Hey fans, friends and family. My Roots I will never forget, I man always remember the road I travel.

As you know music is what I have so music is what I man give. Over these past weeks I have travel many road from North to South and from East to West and across the ocean.

People of the World I would like to thank you for your warm embrace. Many wonderful experience sharing the music with you.

On stage I felt free and loved by all of you. It was nice to hear you sing Walk with me.

I man way is long and the road is foggy, foggy. Jah is I man eyes sight, He have lead I man to a few special place.

Place like New Mexico. It was a long time coming I thank all of you In New Mexico for your support. It was a great experience in North and South Carolina.

Seeing young and old fans rocking to the music and the sounds of Burning Spear. I man was shock by the response I received in New Orleans.

The House Of Blues was rocking with a high energy.

I must mention how I was touch by the words of this fan in Santa Fe. She told me how sick she was and how listening to I man music help to heal her faster than any Doctor could.

We had a wonderful time running in New Hampshire, seeing the great mountains. Even though everyone one was in pain for days.

Big up to the fans of Dallas. The promoter was so worried because he had only sold 200 tickets in advance. Big surprise to him when so many fans walk up at the door.

The night of the show he made his goal and was asking if we were coming back around again. Houston festival was the second time for me, the lawn was filled with a rainbow color of people. What a beautiful sight to behold. I met 3 young Jamaica fans who waited for me, they wanted to let I man know that I have young fans in Jamaica. Yes, my Island please don't sell out.

I cannot forget Austin. Austin have been my musical home for years. The place may be small but the vibes was irie. So many place to mention I man just would like to say special thank to all promoters and fans for supporting the music of Burning Spear.

Over the sea and across the Ocean I man go there a ready. To all the fans of Europe the African Postman deliver the musical telegram.

Telegram say Come Now People Lets Try Again. As far as the eyes can see I saw the people from La Reunion. Over the hills and across the valley I travel the roads of La Reunion.

The airport was filled with many greeting fan who bring I man their love. They were very happy to see the Old Rastaman.

Yes we will be 700 strong in a Garvey lawn where no Door Peeper can enter. On August 12, 2006 Only the strong will enter this a holy lawn where we will stand 700 strong.

The lawn will be rocking, the Spear will be Burning. All who have eye will see 700 strong, they will see and hear Our Music. Fans get your copy of Our Music so we all can sing Walk together and O' Rastaman too.

I want to hear you shout it out loud and clear.

One Love

Peace.

Words Come To Pass
April 14, 2006
Burning Spear

First I would like to say Big Up to Dahved Levy and the staff of WBLS, and yes to all the fans from New York to North Carolina. I man never know you all could sing so much.

I must admit I man is having a great time with everyone. Thanks for your warm embrace.

I man must answer this person. If Den took the time to do is research he would see the 700 Strong concert is a benefit concert for the St Ann's Bay Infirmary . No Door Peep shall not enter.

Burning Spear isn't making any money from this. I man don't hustle money. Yes I will inform people to buy my CD. If an author write a book he wants everyone to read it, and if they need to read it they must purchase it. I man is an independent label, a Free Rastaman in the music business.

I man don't need to hire you as my PR to save face since there is no face to be save. And by your comment it is plain to see you are fill with anger against I man. I am not politician and resent you taking my words out of context to fit your needs. Many are call, few are chosen. Throw Down Your Arms and Come.

I am my own PR. That why I sell myself. I don't need anyone to sell me. I hope Den buy is ticket for 700 Strong and a copy of Our Music. Yes, we cannot refuse it.

Burning Spear words come to pass.

We now have a first lady down in Jamaica. I man don't know where the lyric come from. It just come to I man in I man rest. Just like I man say on Our Music CD, we need a leader that can lead the people. Nanny was a leader. Nanny was the first female warrior. All these woman I am about to mention are from the same line as Nanny.

Nanny was the first female Warrior, then Winnie Mandela/Portia Simpson. And I cannot forget Mrs. Rodney. These female warriors are willing to fight and die for what they believe in. Even though they have great physical beauty they never use that as a way to get ahead. The blood of Nanny run through these women warrior vein. They never give up no matter how hot the battle become. These women know no surrender or retreat. They have determination. Jah send them. I hope the people of Jamaica will rally around their new leader.

I man always say the message is in the music, that why I cannot refuse it. Music should tell a story. For this reason I refuse to change I man identity. I man might not be on MTV or BET or late night television because I am not a passing fad. Here today, gone tomorrow. Burning Spear don't fit in their world. They cannot understand my lyric, because I man lyric comes from the creator to bring all the People Of The World together. I am the Lion in Jah Kingdom, I am a Free Rastaman surrounded by a rainbow of people from all over the world. Grass root people.

Each night I take the stage I can feel the energy coming form the audience. A letter I received from this fan touch I man soul. I will share bit of it with you.

I am walking with nature like I have never walk with nature before...

I am loving this life and all the gift it bestows like never before. I am humble, I am alive, my fire burns bright... I thank you Burning Spear.

This is the reason why I do music. Thank you my friend. Also to the young man at Irving Plaza that was giving me his hat. I hope to see him at 700 strong, and yes bring the hat.

I man way is long, and the road might be foggy at time. I know Jah will be I man eye sight. Yes the African Postman will always bring Jah telegram. The telegram say lets keep-on moving and sing the song together. Lets rally round the Red, Gold and Green. Jah bless those and them who are always there for Burning Spear.

One Love, Peace, Keep the Spear Burning.

Using The System To Fight Against Ourselves
March 24, 2006

Brethrens and sistren, when did we start doing the things that we fought against to each other? We must admit that some of us are getting trapped in Babylon system. What does it gain a man to have all the money in the world, and lose his soul? Money only buy things - things that you cannot take with you when your journey on creation is end.

I man have being vibeing all this madness that's going on. Brothers and Sisters are rushing each other over money. Brethrens beware of money, money is the roots of all evil. Lets all go back to the days of Old. Look where money and riches got anyone. I Spear would rather be friends with the animal than to be a target for Babylon. Yes come let us yada out of Babylon system. Where is the love gone? Look at what we are allowing ourselves to become.

Money can not buy happiness or health. If you fight with Babylon system you will lose with Babylon system. All what you think you will gain will never make you happy. Fire is going to burn all of those that turn their back on Jah the Creator and embrace Babylon system in turns of the court House. There will be weeping and wailing and mourning. If you make your bed in hell, that is where you will sleep.

In life there are no miss opportunity. Jah have his plan.

Jah is I man light and salvation who shall I fear. I will never loss my identity. Spear will stand strong and keep on looking Far Over. Our Music I will fight for, not to become rich, but for my grandchildren so they will know about our great leaders that fight for our rights.

Look at what Jamaica Tourism Board have done to Jamaica. Because they only have one slogan they forget how rich Jamaica are in history and culture. They have chase away the people that use to support Jamaica in the 70's and 80's. I will open my own tourist board and show them that People would like to come to Jamaica. The tourist board would never embrace Burning Spear. I man is too acoustic. All who have ear will hear, and all with eyes will see us 700 strong in a Garvey Lawn under the Order of Marcus Garvey, and acoustic vibes of all who gave they life for freedom.

People of the World dust off your passport, come forward to Jamaica. Irie Jamaica, feel the love of the people. Don't lock yourself away in hotel rooms.

I man have return to Jamaica more often these days, and I am from the Parish of St Ann's Bay. I have record several album in my Parish. When I hear what radio stations are playing in Jamaica I man was ashamed. I would like to send them a play list from around the world so they can see what young people are playing.

At a earlier time we were fighting against the system, now we are using the system to fight against ourselves. We are defeating Ourself. I, Burning Spear, stand strong. I am the master of I man faith. I am the captain of my soul. Don't forget to buy your ticket for 700 Strong. And pick up a copy of Our Music Jah know we can't refuse it.

Keep the Spear Burning
One Love. Peace.

Tell The Youth The Truth
March 7, 2006

My roots I will never forget, I will always remember the road I travel for More than 35 Years.

I man would like to say respect to Heartbeat Records for donating $1000.00 to the St. Ann's Bay Infirmary.

On August 12, 2006 I Man will be singing for Justice and Peace. I will sing for the young man who sits in the corner by the walls of the infirmary. He cannot walk or talk and know no mother or father.

I man will sing for my friend who shout out my name Rebe, short for Creation Rebel. Look where I end up.

So much time have wasted on foolish idea now its time for I Man to focus on Jah plans. Just as the Dove appear to I man on that bright morning January 1, 2006 while I bathe in Jah ocean on reggae beach.

The creator will surround all 700 of His chosen people on August 12. No, weak Heart cannot enter. We will all sip from the musical cup of Peace.

I stand strong and free. No more hide and seek, no more hot bread and butter. I Spear not coming for your supper. I open I man heart to all of my fans by opening my secret place to you.

It is good when a man or woman can think for themselves. Wise man mouth is always close. Only the fools speak too much.

They can't catch I man. I appreciate the words my mother say to me: "Son be careful, think before you move." The creator Bless and keep all mothers.

Mothers tell the youth the truth. Yes big, big, big embarrassment. Son I am not your father but your mother his your mother. Daughter I am not your father but your mother is your mother.

He who know the right and do it not shall be spank with many stripe. Yes mother, tell the youth the truth.

Music is what I have and music is what I will give. This is the concert I man have being praying for. The horns and drums will combine with the wave of the sea to create music of harmony.

I will beat my congas and send a message to all the People Of The World. The congas will say "have no fear I Burning Spear is here." Look I man in the eyes and don't you cry. Shout it out loud and clear and have no fear as I take you on a musical ride. Don't talk about Miami or Toronto, Canada. The Big Apple or Manhattan. Lets rock in time on Garvey lawn with Mr. Music.

I Spear love like every other man. Yes Spear love sweet, sweet love. So come roots and rock reggae with I man. Tell me what love can do to you. People can you tickle my soul. Are you going to allow I man to grow too old before you tickle I man soul? What more can I do to say thank you to all my fans for all these year of support?

To photo lady: thank you for your kind words. Yes my sister, I man is on a journey, we will all meet at the bank of the beautiful river right over there. Your prayer have kept I man strong. It's not easy to be Burning Spear. They can't hurt I man with their Babylon system. I am protected by all of you who know I man. Only the Fittest Of the Fittest can survive.

This wood is dry but still heavy. I am the original Creation Rebel. So when the Sun goes down I will call on all of you. Are you ready?

There will be no need for VIP pass, since all 700 strong will be VIP. No, wolf in sheep clothing will not be there also. No, reggae hustler will not be welcome.

No, Rascal will not be allowed to enter Jah Holy lawn. I am here to sing Our Music. Yes, I man cannot refuse it so you should never never point your finger at the old Rastaman or never you talk too much. Lets try again because mistake carry no face.

Are you my friend neighbor or enemy, who are you? We can show the world that we can live together. In Africa they use to chain us together. Yes we can be happy again and feel happy again. With music that set the mind at peace. Hold them little Garvey hold them, show them that we can get tough. Walk your walk to the record store for a copy of Our Music and let the lyric set your mind at peace so when we meet again you can sing along with I man.

Some people want to surround I to bring I man down, but little did they know I will never give up my throne.

Jah Bless, One Love, Keep the Spear Burning. Tell the youth the truth.
Peace.

People Of The World, I man spent the holiday home in Jamaica. Thanks to all of your support I was able to give back something to the St. Ann's Bay Infirmary. While I have being traveling to carry out my duty I never took time for myself and family. It's time for me to slow down, and return to my roots. Yes People Of The World, my roots I will never forget, I will alway remember the roads I travel. The Spirit of Marcus Garvey lead me right to Marcus Garvey Youth Club. Right on the beach. All I could hear in my head was it's time for me to get out of Babylon system. Anyone can be Babylon. So come lets us chant down babylon and be strong.

I man rise up out of this little island where reggae music spring from. They can't kill I man no matter what method they come with because Jah is my driver. Jah will drive them back from whence they come. He will not leave one up on another. They could be small as a mustard seeds.

My way is long and the road is foggy foggy. Jah is I and I eye sight.

I man want to be loved for who I am and not for what people think I have. I never got into music to become rich. I man is not driven by money. I am a Creation Rebel, the Africian Postman.

Spear.

Behold The Spear Burning Over Yonder
December 12, 2005

First I would like to say thanks to all the people in the record industry that nominated Our Music. I am very surprised that I am a nominee for this Grammy since there is so much hype music going around. I am truly humbled by this nomination. Give thanks.

I would also like to give a special Big Up to Sinead O'Connor for embracing roots music. This is a very brave woman to go on stage to sing Burning Spear and other roots music. Sinead has done something that no Jamaican artist has done. She remember Burning Spear music. Respect Sinead for making Our Music Everyone Music.

I have released the song Music Business on I man website. I wanted to share this song with all the People Of The World. In the reggae side of the music there is so much things going on. Everyone rushing to reach the top. They don't care who they have to drop.

I will now take a title from one of Sinead album cover. I do not want what I haven't got. So all you vampire throw down your arms and come.

This Music is Our Music. I man have paid my dues in this business. When I say I never bent down low this means I man never surrender to anyone or stoop to anyone standard. I never try to pose, I never show off, I just follow my nose. So all the Mr and Mrs Poem of this business the skeleton is in your closets waiting to drop out.

Some speak with there mouth behind your back, I man speak with music. Music is what I have so music is what I give. As we all enter into another year let us forget about the past and move on in a positive direction.

I would like to thank all of The People Of The World for supporting Burning Spear music. Jah Jah send each and everyone of you. May the creator bring each and everyone of you much joy as you all have brought I man.

The question everyone is asking I man, Do I think I will win the Grammy? The answer is no I will not win the Grammy, because the people of the world don't get to vote. I man is already a winner by just being nominated for this CD.

The creator put my name first on the list so I already number one. I man is the only reggae artist to be nominate so many times and only one win. I man is the small fish surrounded by many big fish.

So hold them Little Garvey, hold them. Show them we can get tough. O'Rastaman will never give up.

Happy New Year.
Spear

Music Alone Shall Live
November 30, 2005

Burning Spear will be at Tony Rebel salute on January 14, 2006. It will be a true honor for I man to perform at Rebel Salute this year. Rebel has proven himself to be a brethren that stands up for the right, and believe in self reliance. I-man will join as one with Tony Rebel and make a donation to St Ann's Bay Infirmary.

First I would like to say thank you Erik for your poem. Big up to Dennis and the Rasputin staff, and all the fans of Berkeley for making Our Music Their Music. It was good to be there upfront and personal with all of you.

The crime you want to charge I-man for it's not possible, and I am not guilty. I was only doing the work of His Majesty, following in the foot step of all the great freedom fighters of the world. Marcus Garvey is an African Jamaican who has been accused many times wrongfully, and so am I. Yes my neighbor and friends and enemy, you need to set the record clean.

I didn't make no move to hurt anyone. If you say I do, where is your evidence? The first Bagg-a-wire was Jamaica version. Second Bagg-a-wire American version. Yes they sell I-man and betray I for less than a pound of rice.

The modern day Bagg-a-wire thought they found the genie in the jar, only when they open the jar only smoke came out. Look for I-man in the water, look for I-man in the wind, because I refuse to live my life in fear or doubt about the work I was given to do. Our Music I can not refuse it. His Majesty set the standard for I-man to follow. How sweet and wonderful it is to serve the creator by singing Our Music.

Everytime I play my congos I am sending a message striaght to the Heart of my friends, neighbors or enemies. I can feel the cry of the world. These are the timea I ask His Majesty to forgive I-man for making any wrong turn since mistake carry no face. I Spear have shed many tears while making this album. Out of my tears came words from my heart to touch all the people of the world souls. Let's all get on board the Burning Spear Starliner of Music. Let's make a circle and sing Our Music.

Fans, get your copy of Our Music because I would like to hear all the people of the word sing it next time we meet. All who have ears will hear, and all with eyes will see. Burning Spear will never lose it. Together I and I rainbow of fans will show the world that we can look far over. Because in a time like now it's not about who feels it knows it. What about the man who never felt it but knows it?

Music alone shall live.

People of the word I love you and I thank you for all your support of all the CDs on the Burning Spear label. We can become 8,000,000 strong.

Lets show the world that Roots music coming from an artists own label can sell. Introduce a friend to the music of Burning Spear this holiday.

Keep the Spear Burning
Peace...
Winston Rodney

Creation Rebel, Old Rastaman
November 14, 2005

First I man would like to say Bonjour to the people of Paris. Thank you so much for your warm welcome. To all radio DJ and writer of France, respect for making Our Music Everyone music. To Cyril and Nocturne staff, plenty respect for helping to spread the message of Burning Spear over Europe.

I man will now speak about reggae dark secret.

Plenty of us reggae artist couldn't read or write. We only have the talent to do this work. Yes I say it a work appointed to I from His Majesty. That is why, like an old warrior, a soldier, Old Rastaman I had to ask when will I be discharge from this duty? If I man is wrong I ask for forgiveness. Just like in the days of old when His Majesty and His disciples travel the earth preaching I and I travel the earth preaching. The mountains now become venue and the hills are now parks and outdoor festival.

Our Music they think I and I lose it. So many artist today are afraid to sing certain lyric because it's not what society say is marketable to young people. They want us to leave it up to them. When we leave it up to them we will no longer able to perform for all the people of the world and more of our young people will pay the price.

We can show the world that we can live together. Reggae music is about a message of love and togetherness. Do you enjoy terrorizing your brother and sister? If more and more of us become chain together with music that teaches, the world would be a better place, free from mental bondage.

Time for us to become self reliant brethen and sistren. People of the World don't ask for that loan. Because while they are sleeping you will be working to pay back that loan.

Harry you are not sellin yet they are profiting from Harry. Just take a look around you will see so many album they have on the market for I man. The question I ask is where are the royalty payments? Yes this is the sound of all these singers, singing all of these songs. Yet not benefiting from these songs due to all these musical slave traders that sell but keep everything for them self.

They say Burning Spear will be finish and his music will never sell without record companies. I man say come now people lets try again. Let's never stop trying, because Music alone shall live.

Brethen and sistren, people of the world has I man get ready to hang up my mike and give up touring. I will be letting you know everything about I Man musical career for all these 35 years. All about the Creation Rebel that now become the Old Rastaman.

I will take you on a journey about Our Music. Each and every track. And yes I have a track that I will release soon on my website only.

If you know that man you shouldn't hurt that man you should love that man. Thank you people of the world your love have fix I man right up.

Yes walk, walk do your country walk to the record store, and make Our Music everyone Music.

Spear.

My Duty
November 7, 2005

Greetings People,

Thank you for buying my new CD Our Music.

Burning Spear say sometimes as an artist it is good if you can share some things with the people especially the fans so they can get some understanding about the things you been through coming up in the business. I man been in this business since 1969 and I man did have to deal with various booking agent, record company and promoters and it was in the 90's when I man start earn something from what I been doing since 1969. I man rise up with my self confidence and my capabilities and I man just keep on moving forward for I man is moving in the right direction and the people knows that.

Sometimes I ask His Majesty when am I going to be discharged from this duty? Maybe I was wrong to ask His Majesty such question. I see myself as Mr. Music, JAH Music, Our Music, World Music, the Peoples Music. What so ever JAH has given to I man, I man earn it the hardest way.

So Keep the Spear Burning
One Love
Peace
Burning Spear

Unity Is Strength
October 26, 2005

First I would like to say greeting to all the people of the world. Big Up to the fans of Connecticut they have make Our Music the best sound Scans for Burning Spear music. Plenty respect for all the radio DJ in that area, they and the fans have proven that Our Music can become Everyone Music.

Unity is strength.

I would like to say Our Music is not a song against record company. I man have nothing against any record company. This was just I way of speaking out against the things that happen in this business. You have pirate companies like Clocktower that put out this CD call Traveling. I man have never given them any rights. I don't even know them. I man call them modern day Music Slave Traders. Also the name Harry you are not selling comes from this producer that would call I man Jackson. And now claim I sold rights to them for $40.00 Jamaican Dollars in 1975.

A lot of people say they made Burning Spear. I say to them Jah made Burning Spear, I am a messenger of Jah, so Jah send all these people to support my live concerts. So while they are sleeping I am working on Our Music. A lot of my peer in this music business would go on I man website and see all these tour dates. They would say "how spear have so much tour dates?, where the people them come from to support him? Burning spear don't even have a hit record." I am a messenger of His Majesty so I don't need a hit record to spread his Majesty message.

Plenty respect to Bill Bass/Larry Gold and the House Of Blues crew for all the tour support. Respect to all Burning Spear disciples...

Our Music touch I man so much based on what was going on in my life at the time this record was being made I have to speak about it. I have never put so much of myself in a CD since the 1970's. I don't sing to gain riches and buy fancy cars. I was chosen by the creator for this job. I am O' Rastaman. You see I man over the past years so don't bother I man with your disturbances. Marcus Garvey/Elijah Mohammed/Martin Luther King and Mr. Malcolm X they leave the instructions for I to follow through. So don't mess with the O' Rastaman.

Mistake carry no face. I man can see my exit I am more stronger than before. I man His little Garvey, And so his every brother or sisteren that will fight for there rights. So hold Them Little Garvey show Them that we can get tough. Who are them? Them are your friends or neighbor or enemies. I thought you were my neighbor, or friend but not my enemy. How may time we all think this about our friend.

Yes fans a support for Our Music is a support for Burning Spear, O Rastaman. Let the lyric of Our Music chain I and I together. Marcus Garvey say - self reliance. So lets do the Burning Spear walk right to the record store for a Copy Of Our Music.

Peace,
Burning Spear

Greetings
October 16, 2005

Our Music was created at a time in I, Burning Spear, life that was fill with many personal conflict. For this reason songs like Friends, Our Music, And My Duty were created.

Down In Jamaica was created for all sister and mother. Woman have so much power that is alway over looked. They are leaders yet they are alway over looked.

I had to put in Little Garvey, And O' Rastaman. These were lyric that came to me as I run in the park and come face to face with I man self and Jah spirit.

In My Duty there is the lyric "I man is only Human, and can make mistake". This was a talk I had with I man father, and creator. I had taught of walking away from touring. So I decided to take some time for I self to be with my family. But I could not forget my fans. So I decided to take it to the record store so they could see me up close, and personal. Your love have kept me strong.

All Burning Spear fans, I have to thank you so much for all your kind words. Yes people lets try again. Show them that Harry is selling. Feel I man pure, and deep vibe on Our Music.

Let Our Music become Everyone Music. Buy your copy, and buy one for a friend.

 

One Love Peace
Keep The Spear Burning.
