The song Umlilo (Fire) was inspired by my father’s song ( What For ) which burns babylon. I got inspire to burn fire as well as my father is fire man…. Mainly in the song I speak about my life experiences as I grew up my Father use to warn me not to play with fire kuba ndizakutsha ( because I ‘ll burn )…. I wrote this songs to inspire other youths to sing Reggae Muzik as Reggae music teaches love and Respect it advocates for the poor and the needy. – Jah Asha
