Reggae music has been the people’s music since the days of slavery while focused on Rastafari as guidance and psalm 133 stands as the defender of the faith in the once trouble-torn khutsong township in carletonville /merafong. the mission is to spread conscious music with conscious lyrics for the development of youth mindset and the community in general. since reggae is against immorality then ‘psalm 133’ also have the same stand point which is to fight against immorality and also to assist especially with charity work….
Psalm 133 believes that performing live brings one closer to the audience and psalm 133 is no exception.
Live performance is a must!
