Jamaican-rooted Conscious Reggae artiste Erick Smith and his compatriot Kiprich of the famed "Telephone ting", are among the many artistes who have pledged their support for our NO GUNS campaign.

The two artists are due for a mashing concert come October this year under the Kingston Sounds promotional label captained by Ras Girgois.



The artistes have visited the country before and have had a feel of the warm hospitality it has to offer. Then, with local-bred Sudanese child, Singer Dynamic.

Their manager is Ras Dave Judah of Reggae jam Radio Show on WVIP 93.5 FM, New York,US.

P.s So watch out for the October show and if all goes well The Abyssinian might, just,might be doing a show in Kenya for the first time.Santa I massa gana.

Fya Mummah Jahmby limelight comes of age at Don Carlos Concert.


by Smallaxe magazine; the pioneer Rastafari Magazine in East and Central Africa.

She has certainly worked her way up the reggae juggling and Deejaying scene in Kenya. Until recently she was known as Sista Njambi but now rastarized Fya Mummah Jahmby, proved her iron at the Don Carlos concert.

Fya Mummah has a hold on the reggae fans and her voice and command is dominant that even the LION MAN Papah Chali gave her a thumbs up. At least, that was symbolic of the paw of approval from the don of Kenyan dancehall deejay. Papah Chali is the most eldest reggae deejay today playing with his oldest sound system King Lion Sound.Fya Mummah is a radio presenter and deejay with the first Reggae Radio Station Metro FM.

No guns to town campaign would like to thank Fya Mummah for her relentless effort to facilitate in some of our activities during the campaign. Give thanks fya fe rise Rasta ites, green and gold.

Reggae Superstar dons Kijiji cultural House's bracelet at Concert




by Smallaxe magazine; the pioneer Rastafari Magazine in East and Central Africa.

“I love Jah Jah... oh yes ..I love him,” Don Carlos opened his Kenyan Sawa Sawa concert to an elated reggae fans. Packed in a stadium foreground; old, young, Chinese, European and Afrikans waltzed to his classics, hit after hit.

Wearing a white suit of elegant thread, under he wore a silky sky-blue shirt cuffed by enamel buttons, his distinct dread crown is unmistakably a Don Carlos novel demeanor. Backed by the Dub Vision band an all European band wearing a black sea of suit. To finalize the wardrobe, a Kijiji cultural House bracelet made sure that a passing glance would hardly miss the MessanJah had come to prophesy that the harvesting time is near.

Indeed on the material day some tares were self-evident as hooligans and unruly youths broke out “bang'arang”, despite calls and balls from Don Carlos himself fe dem to cool it. Shame pon dem yout mama nuh proud of. Movvee riotous youth go so, Zion nuh need fight. You heard.Rastafari Trully InI.memba.

We give thanks for all that has gwaan since Don Carlos landed in Kenya. The proclaimed footstool of the Throne of David.

Don Carlos is most apprecialoved by the No guns to town campaigners in Kenya and All over Afrika for making that bold step towards disarmament and spreading JAH LOVE to the HUMANITY.

Just as OUR FATHER WHO SITTETH ON MOUNT ZION DECLARETH

..."Ethiopia[AFIKA] is, by her own choice, a nonaligned state. Our Policies on the vexatious international issues of the day have been declared to all, and our adherence to them is steadfast: the urgent imperative of universal disarmament, the settlement of disputes by peaceful negotiation, the supremacy of reason and logic over force and irrationality.

Don Carlos signs NO GUN NO VIOLENCE

so shame on those hooligans who caused trouble during the concert. Batter ram mus come and bad mus go dung! Fya Bun!
