I came to watch this lovely childhood song on this day of October 08, 2024. If you are here in future pls like this comment to make me come back to watch it again & again 🙏 ...soooo looong 🎵🎶🎵
It was not only drug.. The guy was into spiritism and this affected him greatly. He talks with spiritism. That send down the rain is no an ordinary song. When he sings most time, rain must fall.
Hello, just watched a clip with Majek & manager ( owner of Day miracle records ) . He suffered from depression- his wife broke his heart. Supposedly, one of the many untold stories about the New York sensation. I would say sounds more true than not. Wish I could get the link
My 2 young daughters 3 and 5 that dont even speak English, they love this song and only want to sleep listening to this song and other Majek Fashek songs...
He's talking about colors.. them see africans as colored... Black or brown.. them see the europeans and americans as white... In majek's ideology.. he sees us as one... No colors... We are human beings... Only the angels are pure and without blemishes.. so he represents them as white (only the angels of God is white and without blemish) Jah guide 🚶
We thought he will take from where Bob stopped, he drew our souls to Jah, literally sang and heavens opened her windows until rain poured, an alpha spiritual music ministration, pure talent but alas he was lured astray, came back to senses and asked God and fans for forgiveness, entertained and preached briefly with cancer on stages and finally today, bowed out. God shall give you eternal rest, Mr rainmaker. Holy spirit will take over the earth as you sang one day. R.I.P
This song is still relevant today, as it was back in the 80s when he sang it! Back then it was during the time when we were all into 'free Mandela', and it was really inspirational...it STILL hasn't lost it's magic!!!
Majek Fashek's music is still so relevant today, with all the chaos and the mayhem going on all over the world. He made revolutionary music. Rest in Power Majek.
I asked my Zumba instructor who is white to choreograph this song and she put together amazing choreo. Problem is I can’t stop crying long enough to participate every time the song comes up. It just brings back memories of home and him. R. I. P. Majek.
soooo proud 2 b Nigerian!!! Majek brings so much pride to Africans worldwide...I remember i was in Primary School when i use to jam to this song on the radio...Majek You are a Living Legend...It's 2 bad that the era of good upbeat music from Nigeria is no more!
The best that ever came from Africa. Africa truly kills her sun, according to Wole Soyinka. I wish Fashek recovery from his current status so that we dont loose our own bob Marley
Met this guy few days ago on train near london... Great man with a heart he told me he was called jack like me and said to search his music up and see what i think about it, love the guy now... Wish i could meet him again
I can hook you up with him, go to his music consultant page on facebook or you can follow him on facebook the consultant is Omenka Uzoma Day, or you can call his Nigeria number is roaming the Iine in London
Almost at the point of nostalgic tears, wow, time flies, I want more than a billion years in life, cos I wanna keep these memries on and on and on....and I know I'll get it...Thumb this up, If u want same too-YOR-
Always gets me when the beat/bass drops at king selassie I 3:39.. i literally lose it.. what a composition! what a message! long live baba majek fashek
Amen sista we are most certainly connected through the most high because that particular part is the entire song. The African Drum only we descendents of Africa can understand. 👏🙌
Rest in power Legend. You are one of the greatest vocalists to come out of Africa. We are so proud of your achievements. Just had to listen to this evergreen song again.
Majek Fashek made so many good songs...so many great songs...this particular one is the cream of the crop...my personal favourite. I played it all day when his death was announced. Thanks so much for the good music and good memories Majek!!!Jah Bless
I love the way majek and every other reggae musicians (Bob Marley and lucky Dubey) with their crew usually perform their music with passion and demonstration. I wish we could do the same in the presence of God when singing praise and worship to him. God Bless You Majek, I hope to see you on God's side when we get to the other side.
How do people get songs off their heads after the music has stopped? The rhythm, the words...Oh majek u left a great mark, an overwhelming nostalgia!!!
majek is my favourble nigerian artist . i love him much though i still very young when his song was the order of the day.Am glad to listen to the sound once again
The Rainmaker.....The legendary Prophet of Jah. 1990s in America....Enter 2020 and we are in the flames of racial divides, coast to coast protests and fires......Ain' nothing gonna change in America or Africa until we Africans pick ourselves up, unite and build our nations in the motherland...'Africans will only be truly free and prosperous in Africa. -so long Uncle Majek....Live on!
One of my best song of all time till now. You have always spoke the truth about the black and white people. Baba we still dey suffer since you talk am in some of your songs
"So long, for too long, We have been sitting down for so long, We have been fooling round for too long There's work to be done, Africa There's work to be done, America If we unite, we will be free so long, for too long," Prophetic Song, God Loves Rain on USA & Africans.
this is so pure and melodious it makes me want to cry....saw him on Dave Letterman and I just couldnt hold back the tears...what happened Majek...why??
Tears roll down my ears wenever I listing to any of his track...it dosen't hv to end like dis. I pray to God, to REMEMBER u. it is not too late. from a humble fan.
FOR MAJEK, IT'S ABOUT LOVE, POLITICS, RELIGION AND ART. FOR TODAYS MUSICIANS 95% 0F THEIR MUSIC IS ABOUT SEXUAL FANTASY AND ART. MAJEK FASHEK; A LEGEND OF OUR TIME. R.I.P
God bless and preserve legend MAJEK FASHEK. You are a true legend, I am a huge fan. This song brings great memories of my childhood, thank you so much SIR. We love you and your music🙏🏾👍🙌🏻👏❤️. More Grace and Strength to you, live strong 👊💪
majek music relaxes me at work, at home n right in car. Nothing wrong with this dude getting paid than any musician outhere . well known in America n music being played now everywhere.
You know, this PARTICULAR SONG by MAJEK FASHEK - SO LONG, is actually a CALL for an UPRISING? And TIME is NOW not TOMORROW, for tomorrow might be too late! So, we as an AFRICAN ENTITY, or AMERICAN ENTITY, it's NOW we ARISE and SALVAGE the CORRUPTION in Nigeria in particular and in Africa in general, before it's too late! JAH BLESS, my brother, MAGIC FASHEK, we all wish you a QUICK RESTORATION back to FAME, in Jesus' Name, amen!
What a LEGENDARY REGGAE AVATAR of ALL-TIME, who can never be replaced with who and what we have in this 21st Century, no matter how SOPHISTICATED... Yeah, we've REALLY been FOOLING AROUND for SO LONG, most especially in Nigeria, which of we don't take time to FAST & PRAY and UNITE IN LOVE, might BURN TO ASHES... Sometimes, I just wonder why 1 in DIASPORA is still PRAYING & WEEPING for Nigeria, but I can't find... But the LOVE of her PEACE & PROSPERITY is propelling me to pray and fight for her GLORY DAYS to return, in Jesus' Name, amen...
i love him! so long,too long is my favourite. reminds me of my childhood. good vocals,good horns,good talking drums harmonisation. love that song. its a masterpiece. WORLDWIDE
He no doubt a raw talent but he failed to realize who he is by indulging in booze and hard substance. Though I learnt he has some spiritual sort of problem if he didn't get high he won't be himself
Only the Angels of God is white now..... If we unit we will be free cause we have been seating down and fooled around for too long. The Legend!!! Keep resting
So long, Africa, Nigeria have been sleeping for too long. Arise from the sleep Africa. I feel like crying. So emotional. Get well Majek Fashek. They finish African heroes with addicting drugs. Even Marley. They want Africans to remain slaves mentally. Anyone trying to liberate Africans are killed if politicians, drugged if musicians.
Oh what he saw long time ago and now he’s dead my country Nigeria youths are just waking up and it’s really so so long but we will get it right this time around with the power of our lord Jesus Christ and may your beautiful soul rest in the Bosom of lord amen
Epa for life,remember wayback what u always told us in Benin,how highly spiritual you are and i got to meet you after 30 years later at johnson street in Alade Avenue, we stayer at jabita hotel and you even player the guitar while singing,drugs was not the issue but i guess you were fighting the same war Bob marley,peter tosh,marcus Garvey,Malcolm x,martin luther king Junior fought,Rest on Epa
I love this music...am listening and listening to this music....Oh God help this Bros...God Please we don't want to lose this Great Legend...Please Baba God help him to fulfill is Mission...
his doing better than before now you guys need to see him now god have been doing his work on his life majak fashek his back to stage again in African truly born benin blood Domo sir
The last comment here was 11 months ago. It's with great sadness that I break the news of this legend who passed on this morning of #Blackout 2nd June 2020.
This morning. Who else came to pay a tribute and listen to that re-entry at "Remember King Selassie"? That part killed the song patapata. RIP Rainmaker.
Greatest naturally gifted artist in Africa. Same league with Bob Marley and Lucky Dube
Ah true dat Man respect
So True!
You damn right my brother.

I came to watch this lovely childhood song on this day of October 08, 2024. If you are here in future pls like this comment to make me come back to watch it again & again 🙏 ...soooo looong 🎵🎶🎵
I CRY EVERYTIME I LISTEN TO MAJEK, PLZ I USE THIS MEDIUM TO BEG EVERYONE STAY DRUG FREE......
It was not only drug..

"Only the Angels of God is white.....If we unite we will be Free" -so long uncle Majek, send us the Rains.
What does he mean by that?
He's talking about colors.. them see africans as colored... Black or brown.. them see the europeans and americans as white... In majek's ideology.. he sees us as one... No colors... We are human beings... Only the angels are pure and without blemishes.. so he represents them as white (only the angels of God is white and without blemish) Jah guide 🚶
@@sharonyoder6060 sharon, thank you for d explanation. You're d best
Majek is a. Master piece, ever in conrol of his lyrics
We thought he will take from where Bob stopped, he drew our souls to Jah, literally sang and heavens opened her windows until rain poured, an alpha spiritual music ministration, pure talent but alas he was lured astray, came back to senses and asked God and fans for forgiveness, entertained and preached briefly with cancer on stages and finally today, bowed out.

RIP Majek Fashek. One of the greatest the world has ever produced.
Your legacy forever lives on.

I asked my Zumba instructor who is white to choreograph this song and she put together amazing choreo. Problem is I can’t stop crying long enough to participate every time the song comes up. It just brings back memories of home and him.
R. I. P. Majek.
Rip majek

soooo proud 2 b Nigerian!!! Majek brings so much pride to Africans worldwide...I remember i was in Primary School when i use to jam to this song on the radio...Majek You are a Living Legend...It's 2 bad that the era of good upbeat music from Nigeria is no more!
Majek was one of the greatest musicians Africa has ever produced. His memory lives on. Continue to rest in peace.
The best that ever came from Africa. Africa truly kills her sun, according to Wole Soyinka. I wish Fashek recovery from his current status so that we dont loose our own bob Marley
Right bro
So painful
A little correction: "Africa kills her sun" was and is still a book by Ken Saro Wiwa, not Soyinka. Thanks.
Africa Kills Her Sun is by Ken Saro-Wiwa
Oh well we just lost our own Bob Marley 😢💔
RIP
