father taken people
Everything I've taken away from my father has been significant. So, I can't say that any one lesson is the most significant. By being around him, I learned that there is a purpose in life, and that if we are inspired to help people, we should do it.
children kids issues
Kids out there now have learning issues. Having mental issues. And everybody is looking towards what drug to give them, but is anyone looking at the food that the children are eating? What you're eating has a big impact.
country tree country-life
I prefer the country life. I live in Kingston, but there is lots of trees.
shining sun sun-shines
God is like the sun. When the sun shines, it shines for everyone. God is for everyone.
important way psychological
So food is important part, not just in our physical well-being, but in our psychological well-being. The more chemicals that are in our food and the more outside of the way it is intended by nature, the more we are messing with things that we probably don't know the full effect of.
letting-go want jam
'She Wolf,' by Shakira, makes you want to let go of your inhibitions and jam.
inspired
I'm inspired to do music. I really can't stop unless I stop being inspired.
jamaica pressure bigs
I never did feel any pressure in Jamaica. You just someone, not nobody big.
meaningful kids thinking
I think parents today are looking for meaningful things for their kid. It's about feeding them something with meaning.
running kids america
It's very important that we instill some respect for the parents. In America especially, the kids are unruly, screaming at Mommy and Daddy, running the show.
father men rights
The most important thing my father taught me is that every man has to stand up for his rights.
moving somewhere-else america
I've been in Africa, America, moving around a lot. It's helped me to open up my mind. I was born in Jamaica; I've lived all my life there and got all I could from Jamaica. But I needed to be somewhere else to grow.
body psychological should
Everything that we put into our bodies should also be of nature, a part of that cycle of nature. Once you start messing with that - as I said, everything is connected. Once you start messing with psychological well-being, we get more and more messed up.
interesting people trying
I try to make my music interesting to me first, then hopefully other people will find it interesting, too.
