Buju Banton has once again called on his reggae and dancehall contemporaries to deliver righteousness through music, for the sake of a better Jamaica. The ‘Til Shiloh’ hitmaker spoke articulately on the topic of music and the impact it has on people around the world, on November 7th. “It is important for people to understand that our music transcends borders, transcends cultures, transcends time,” said Buju. He had been speaking at the launch of ‘Intimate,’ a reggae concert that will take place on January 4th, in Jamaica. “All we need is proper representation. We haven’t had a great superstar in years,” he assessed.

Buju performed at back to back sold out shows in New York in the Summer and recently performed in Toronto, Canada. On Thursday, as he shared a bit of his journey with those in attendance at the launch, he said he knows the pain and struggles he faced, are relatable to the ordinary Jamaican and this in itself has propelled him. Buju said he understands that many share the very same obstacles that he has faced. “After being cast into prison for 8 1/2 years. I was disdained by a lot of people,” he said, adding that some coined him a drug dealer. “Let me set the record straight. I smoke the world of marijuana but I never sell a ounce of drugs in my life.”

Buju lamented that the nation is in a chaotic state at present. He said his goal is to help in changing this for the better. “From the chaos, I want to bring order. The only thing that can bring us back into the arms of God is righteousness,” said Buju. He told those gathered, “We are a great nation and I am an example of this people and this nation.”
