I get my words from God and I write down the message.”
— Don Dada, the revolutionary voice behind Rise Up and The Heart & The Mind This is not your average artist interview. This is a global call to truth. On this powerful episode of the Reggae Hour Podcast, we sit down with South Africa’s genre-defying musical prophet Don Dada, the first artist from his country to be signed to Bob Marley’s Tuff Gong International, and a leading voice of resistance, youth empowerment, and artistic revolution across the African continent. 🎧 Streaming July 3rd at 7PM CT on:

• iHeartRadio
• Amazon Music
• Apple Podcasts

Subscribe and Tune In. This is the conversation they don’t want you to hear. 🗣️ What You’ll Hear: 🔥 "You can’t be speaking on something you don’t understand. Let people from that culture speak for themselves."
Don Dada breaks down the exploitation of African identity in global narratives. From whitewashed media headlines to cultural erasure, he calls on creatives worldwide to listen before speaking. 🔥 “We should be focused on strengthening home because once we do that, our voice becomes powerful on the global stage.”
A searing critique of economic dependency and imported validation. This quote alone reshapes the global music industry's role in Africa. Build at home. Then rise. 🔥 "Africa has been looked at as a sleeping entity... to see them awakening now, realizing their power—it’s a beautiful thing."
This is the heartbeat of the African Renaissance. Dada lays out a vision of unity, identity, and revolution powered by music and truth. 🔥 "Africa is as good as anywhere else in the world… we’re just exploited more than anyone else."
No more sugarcoating. Don Dada exposes the propaganda war that keeps the real Africa hidden.
Spoiler: It’s not starving children and mud huts—it’s gold veins worth trillions and youth ready to lead. 🔥 “If you're right next to them when their time is beginning, there's no difference—you just continue moving forward.”
A masterclass in humility and mentorship. Through Rough Cut Studios, Don Dada is raising the next generation of African creatives with tools in production, publishing, marketing, and spiritual discipline. 🌍 Who Is Don Dada?

• 💽 Multi-Platinum Artist
• 🌐 First South African signed to Tuff Gong International

In this soul-shaking and spirit-lifting episode of the Reggae Hour Podcast, host Mr. E welcomes legendary reggae frontman Billy Mystic of the Mystic Revealers — the band that has been delivering truth, justice, and JAH love since the late 1970s.

🌍 Straight from Bull Bay, Jamaica, Mystic Revealers rose from sound system culture to global roots reggae acclaim — releasing tracks like “Mash Down Apartheid” (with Jimmy Cliff), “Justice for the Poor”, and their latest prophetic album, “Jah Jah People.”

🎙️ In this deep and heartfelt conversation, Billy Mystic takes us on a journey through:

The founding of Mystic Revealers and the early sound system days

Their fearless anti-apartheid anthem that reached the African National Congress

Why the band refused to abandon roots reggae for the flash of digital dancehall

The fire that burned his home — and how it revealed what really matters

Building “Pon Di Verandah” studio with his children and recording again after the ashes

The true purpose of ganja culture and how modern misuse has strayed from spiritual roots

His faith in the Most High JAH and the redemption that powers his every lyric

“Victory is easy... what you have to learn is how to handle defeat, disappointment, and still keep going.” — Billy Mystic

“We’re not just a band. We’re doing the works of the Most High JAH, Rastafari.”

“Life is like surfing. You paddle with everything you have to catch the wave — then rise and ride it with purpose.”
