Sounds Like
How could i describe the sound ? well it's definately hip hop with some elements of downtempo/nuy jazz , but definately has a rastafari "roots rockers" feel ........it's intergalactic sounds from the spirit of the most high JAH RASTAFARI , OHH i forgot with subtle undertones of chinese eastern "daoist " concepts.
music for the mind body and soul!!!!!
Well first off i would like to say greetings and salutations unto the most high, the LORD GOD JAH RASTAFARI, KING OF KINGS, LORD OF LORDS NEGUS NEGAST, HOLY IMMANUEL I, JAH RASTAFARI, who has led me to the council of the good and righteous, may INI ever stay within the prescence of H.I.M. and foriver look towards the east for ites and livication!!!!
MY name is HAKIM TAFARI, INI is the proud Baba of NYAH FYAH aged 2 1/2 years, JAH RASTAFARI!!!and married keeping a love frequency with Christina.
I lead a outfit called HAKIM TAFARI AND THE AQUARIAN MYSTICS, bringing the word sound of RASTAFARI in a "ROCKERS" style and fashion w/a strong hip hop edge.
With the help of NAT BURNA & D.J.JAY DYE we are re-creating a classic sound of RASTA to a modern sound, I personally feel it is my duty as a RASTAFARIAN to bring a iration that is lacking within music and bridging the gap btween the youths and the elders ; bringing fourth a sense of balance and raspect to this musical babylonian shitsem.
The bling bling era will collapse like rome soon enough until then INI will still proceed to chant down the slackness,greediness and other nastiness they try to overload our minds with..........anyway i am blessed to also be a part of the INI MIGHTY LOCK FOUNDATION or should i say the I TREE FOUNDATION which is spearheaded by KING NEGUS & JOLOMITE OF THE LEGENDARY "INI" (pete rock produced the classic "fakin jax").
INI is also blessed to be a silent ninja for vermont based ITATION SOUND (look out for new mixtape pressure), all praises due to Dread Lion for that link!!!!
Originally INI was working with another group, who I choose not to name, but due to unforeseen events a month before our cd release i called it quits, no disraspect but different work ethics came involved and it had to cease, but yo the sun dont chill!!!!!!!! you overs ..yes RASTAFARI I I I IS STILL ALIVE AND SKANKING TO THE BINGHI .
As a Rasta and a Daoist i practice the natural laws of the iniverse and study the scrolls of the ancients to help I, A Ithiopian from IPSWICH, SUFFOLK ENGLAND in this strange land and to deal w/ all the strrange things that happen around us.
I WILL ALWAYS DEFEND THE ALPHA & OMEGA.

Pick Of The Week
Afrocentricity Based On Historical Myths Or Reality with Robin Walker & DR Stephen Howe Enemies - The clash of the races might have been an alternative title for this dramatic debate as both the truth and the lies about the last 2,000 years of world history are repeated in front of a packed audience at Willesden Green, North London. In the white (European) corner, Dr Stephen Howe, tutor in politics at a university in Oxford and author of the book "Afrocentrism: Mythical Pasts & Imagined Homes" In the Black (African) corner, Robin Walker, African Scholar, Researcher and Educationalists. Robin is the author of "Roots of Black History" and co-author of "Sword, Seal & Koran and "The West African Empire of Songhai".
This debate is recorded in 2 parts with over 2 hours of intense, stimulating and heated debate and audience participation reaches a sensational climax when one of the speakers is forced to admit that his work is "full of mistakes". This debate is FIND OUT WHICH ONE!
