   About Nama Rupa
NAMA RUPA: Live! For The People

"Nama Rupa's conscious, laid-back vibe stands on its own. Nama Rupa has been reshaping Madison reggae. They're on the verge of redefining the Madison sound." - Rich Albertoni, The Isthmus

"Nama Rupa...plunging earnestly and urgently into reggae's syncopations and political rants." - The Onion

Nama Rupa is a soulful musical energy from the Midwest, currently with a home base in Madison, Wisconsin. Lending a hand to the "one love" reggae community, Nama Rupa has shared the stage with Lee "Scratch" Perry, Devon Evans of The Wailers, Sister Carol, Natty Nation, Giant Panda Guerilla Dub Squad, Jah Roots, The Cool and Deadly, Chicago Afrobeat Project, The Beautiful Girls, Heavyweight Dub Champion, Public Property, The Drastics and many others.

Dubbed by the press as a "reggae hybrid", Nama Rupa's three members offer a fresh blend of conscious, reggae dub with strong funk and hip hop undertones. Eclectic beats, catchy melodies and a psychedelic vibe keep fans dancing; while the lyrics, flowing from self-reflective to socially critical, keep them thinking.

Whether fast or slow, the songs are always groovin' and Nama Rupa is sure to keep any venue on their feet, dancing and thirsty!

RAS ALLOVER





Jun 10 2009 4:34 PM

Compiled from more than four hundred hours of channeling, Bringers of the Dawn imparts to us the wisdom of the Pleiadians, a group of enlightened beings who have come to Earth to help us discover how to reach a new stage of evolution.

Master storytellers and humorists, they advise us to become media-free, to work in teams, and to eliminate the words "should" and "try" from our vocabularies.

We learn how to go beyond fear, how the original human was a magnificent being with twelve strands of DNA and twelve chakra centers, and who our "gods" are.

Startling, intense, intelligent, and controversial, these teachings offer essential reading for anyone questioning their existence on this planet and the direction of our collective conscious — and unconscious.

By remembering that we are Family of Light, that we share an ancient ancestry with the universe around us, we become "bringers of the dawn," consciously creating a new reality, a new Earth.

This here is episode 2 of our webseries. It is actually kind of a mini-pilot.

Well, since it’s the second, I guess it’s a mini co-pilot.

If you are interested in having a song or songs of yours featured in future episodes please send mp3s to onryecontact@gmail.com

We are looking for all genres. Yes, all.

 

If you would please take a second to let us know what you think of this episode,

We’d greatly appreciate it.
