| Lutan Fyah speaks with Ireggae about his growing
up around his granfather's Sound System and the influence it had on his musical
career. Lutan talks about his initial audition for Gargamel, and
how that led to his initial releases. Lutan reasons
about his debut performance in the United States along side Jah Mason at the 2001
Northwest Reggae Festival in Seattle. Lutan is currently in London
working on a new album to be released by Jah Warrior.
Lutan also discusses the recordings he has done in the Bay Area with
the Higher Ground Sound label as well as his upcoming touring plans. He also states his
feelings regarding the Queen of England's recent denial of reparations to Africans stolen
out of their homeland by the United Kingdom.
"Well rastafari livity to Lutan Fyah means to tolerate and live
side-by-side with those of other faiths. No matter which race, no matter which class. The
purpose of Haile Selassie is to see to it that we become one. In unity and love.
And that is my purpose." |
