listened to him as child, was surprised to see his greatest song Cd recently, which i bought. i played the content of the album and wow- the lyrics were so deep and insightful - reminds of a prophet crying in the wilderness , unfortunately for this Prophet like Samson - he fell into the temptation his achilles heel was drugs, now he is so lost sad

watdya think- or hav i been smoking too much w[i]ee[/i]d tongue

Yep. Even though I am an atheist I believe Majek Fashek and Fela were prophets. The used their music to tell stories about the problems of the motherland.


These musicians have more truth in a rhyme that any pastor/priest has in a years worth of sermons

Majek is not in the league with Fela

Most of Majek's songs talk about d divine- which is why i put dis topic hia
Fela on the otherhand was just a rebel

Fela was not just a rebel. He was inspiring. He was not afraid to sing the truth.


Majek Fashed for me was talking about hope. Some of his songs were uplifting. eg send down the rain

He is not a prophet, nigeria has been worse all year long even before they were born. They were just singing what was happening then just like barrister,fela, olando, sunny okosun and many more. Its only that we like enduring as a nigerian and some few baboons kept circulating nigerian wealth within their families. Suffering and smiling styles.

maybe u shud read the opening thread again. if you dnt have an opinion, just take a walk, no be by force.

@topic
He came out with a very solid album- the words were a revelation/insightful, The Light which he carried shone so brightly,as a prophet he couldn't be killed till he had fulfilled purpose, to stop him from fulfilling purpose d only other option was to make him fall into temptation and into illicit drug temptation did he succumb.

What about the Topic changes the fact that Majek Fashek aka Rain Man is a druggie?! And what about his songs made him a Prophet.. I grew up in his era, infact, somewhere in one room in my Dads house, we should still have his Vinyl records lying around.. What makes him a Prophet?! What makes his songs any different from Ras Kimono and co..

Where is Majek now?. Are you a relative?. How can anyone help?. I think he really need help. Yes, Majek is son of God, no doubt.
