Distant drums echo across the savanna, layered with shakers and congas that build like a heartbeat of the land, A rising horn call pierces the air, soon joined by a deep bassline rolling steady, At 90 BPM the one-drop groove locks in, rimshots sharp, kick grounding, hi-hat shimmering, Acoustic guitar strums add warmth, while Hammond organ bubbles beneath the rhythm, A powerful male lead begins with verses of struggle and hope, answered by a female choir in soaring harmonies, Midway, a rap/toast section erupts with fiery roots wisdom, weaving urgency into the flow, The bridge explodes into chants: “Africa rise! Africa strong!” echoed by crowd-style vocals, horns blasting in syncopation, percussion swelling, Final chorus expands into full-band unity, layers of choir and instruments creating a festival wall of sound, Dub echoes trail into the night sky, A triumphant, anthemic Roots-Reggae celebration with unmistakable Alan-B-K signature
