  • 15 Years of Fire: Blaz’em on Rastafari, Roots Reggae & Why Truth Still Matters

    15 Years of Fire: Blaz’em on Rastafari, Roots Reggae & Why Truth Still Matters
    Jan 19 2026
    Roots. Discipline. Testimony. This is not a hype interview.
    This is testimony. In this powerful episode of Reggae Hour, conscious reggae artist Blaz’em (Christopher Hale) sits down for a rare, unfiltered conversation about a 15-year journey rooted in Rastafari, discipline, and truth. Raised in a Caribbean household and guided by elder Rastaman dem, Blaz’em embraced Rastafari at just 14 years old — not as an image, but as a way of life. In this episode, he speaks openly about mistakes, accountability, spirituality, and why conscious reggae still matters in a world full of noise. You’ll hear Blaz’em reflect on:
    • Why reggae is not entertainment, but testimony
    • The role of elders in shaping righteous youth
    • The discipline of the Bobo Shanti order
    • Walking away from Babylon without selling your soul
    • Why music can reach hearts when words fail
    • And why righteousness is non-negotiable
    As Blaz’em puts it: “Reggae is not entertainment. It’s testimony.” This episode is for the seekers, the rooted, and anyone who still believes music can uplift, correct, and liberate. 🔥 If reggae ever spoke to your soul, this conversation is for you. 🎧 WHERE TO LISTEN Listen now on iHeart Radio, Amazon Music, and ReggaeHour.com

  • The World Is Trouble Three Days of Roots, Reason & Revelation-- Reggae Hour Salute

    The World Is Trouble Three Days of Roots, Reason & Revelation-- Reggae Hour Salute
    Jan 18 2026
    The Seal We open Episode 14 of Reggae Hour Salute with Tasha T – The World Is Trouble, a sobering roots anthem that sets the tone for reflection, clarity, and truth. From there, Mr. E closes out Reggae Hour Salute with a heartfelt recap of the past three days, honoring the music, the reasoning, and the spirit that carried us through this journey. Over the three-day experience, we reasoned on:
    • African liberation and modern coups, especially Burkina Faso, sovereignty, and the global shift away from colonial control
    • Babylon systems, global power structures, and the role reggae plays as truth-telling music
    • Rastafarian philosophy, spirituality, and the divinity of His Imperial Majesty Haile Selassie I
    • Women in reggae as culture bearers, messengers, and matriarchs of sound
    • Food, fashion, and faith — from i-tal living to cultural expression
    • Global justice, Palestine, Africa, the Caribbean, and unity through consciousness
    This episode is not just an ending — it’s a seal. A reminder that reggae is more than sound. It is memory, resistance, healing, and prophecy. We close with music that echoes where we’ve been and points toward where we’re going. 🎶 TRACK LIST (FROM ATTACHED IMAGES)

  • Religion, Redemption & Royal Bloodlines | Faith Beyond Babylon – Reggae Hour Salute

    Religion, Redemption & Royal Bloodlines | Faith Beyond Babylon – Reggae Hour Salute
    Jan 18 2026
    Religion, Royal Bloodlines & Spiritual Reasoning
    We open Episode 13 of Reggae Hour Salute with the powerful Mystic Revealers anthem “Religion”, setting the tone for a deep, respectful reasoning session.
    In this episode, Mr. E and Zionya explore one of the most misunderstood conversations in reggae culture and Rastafari thought:
    the spiritual relationship between Jesus Christ and Emperor Haile Selassie I.
    This is not debate for debate’s sake — this is context, history, scripture, and vibration. We reason through how faith, divinity, liberation, and African identity intersect, and why reggae has always been a vehicle for spiritual questioning outside of Babylon’s rigid frameworks.
    After the discussion, the music carries the message forward — roots, upliftment, reflection, and soul.
    This episode is for the thinkers.
    The seekers.
    The listeners who know reggae is more than sound — it’s testimony.

    Jan 18 2026

    Jan 18 2026
    We open Episode 11 of Reggae Hour Salute with the powerful and grounding anthem “Freedom” by Aza Lineage, setting the vibration for a deep and necessary reasoning on Babylon systems — how they operate, how they shape culture, and how conscious people learn to see through them.
    Mr. E and Zionya break down Babylon not as a buzzword, but as a lived reality — touching on social conditioning, economic pressure, spiritual distraction, and the importance of awareness, discipline, and community.
    From there, we move into “Nineveh” by Redeemm, a song that reinforces accountability, warning, and reflection — before letting the rest of the music carry the message forward.

    “Forward to Freedom: Reggae Speaks Truth on Gaza — Reggae Hour Salute (Day 3)”
    Jan 18 2026
    Day Three of Reggae Hour Salute opens with a firestarter from Don Dada – Forward off his Forward We Continue EP — setting the tone for a deep, necessary conversation.
    In this episode, Mr. E and Zionya take a bold stance on one of the world’s hardest truths: the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and the growing call for justice and peace.
    This isn’t politics — it’s principle.
    It’s about humanity, freedom, and the oneness reggae has always stood for.
    Zionya and Mr. E reflect on how reggae has forever carried the message of the oppressed — from Africa’s liberation movements to Jamaica’s cry against Babylon, and now, the world’s plea for peace.
    After the talk, the music continues the reasoning — unity riddims, righteous harmonies, and the timeless echo that says:
    “One Love means all people.”
    Tune in for healing, culture, and roots vibration that still dares to speak truth to power.
