By Nigel Daring

"Ras Songbook" promises a variety of poetry that project Rasta values. The themes are predominantly spiritual and motivational. They show Rasta commenting on world issues as well as personal ones, all from the perspectives of its cherished values. Reading this book, one realizes the depth of Rastafari. One also gathers its aspirations.
The average Rasta individual can relate to the messages in "Ras Songbook". But people outside Rasta culture can also find relevant connections to the book. There are topics that go beyond any particular religious order or doctrine. They're simply relevant to the human condition.
The poems herein reflect concern for the direction of Rastafari and the global community. It urges Rasta to find place and develop further along its ethos. It also comments on the grave issues of the day with a warning about degenerating spirituality. The book calls for global awakening to eroding morality whilst it simultaneously seeks justice for the victims of aggression.
Rasta values often find itself in conflict with the capitalistic world order. Rasta calls for communal living, respect of nature, spirituality, and acceptance of self. From this understanding, "Ras Songbook" contains poems encouraging Rasta to stand firm on its principles in an antagonistic world. Even more so, it calls for Rasta to lead the world to a better state. Many poems in "Ras Songbook" represent a contribution to this effort. The book itself hopes to help Rasta realize its importance in pushing back and assuming itself as light in darkness.
From its earliest days to the present, Rasta has become a worldwide phenomenon. Its potency, survivability, and capacity to spread have always rested on the currency of its morality. This should never be compromised for any material gain or advance in the world. Rasta is the greatest force on Earth. Through its power, the world can be where it needs to be. May this book fulfill its purpose in advocacy and help in getting those within and without Rasta to realize the power of Rastafari.
