			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>From the Official Congo Natty website:</p>
<blockquote><p>I &#038; I music is to praise Haile Selassie I Jah Rastafari making a joyful noise unto the Lord, for it is Jah who has made I &#038; I. Jah Rastafari sends his children a positive vibration that manifests through drumming (Nyahbingi) and chanting (Singing). The drum patterns of Nyahbingi have their origins in Abyssinia, the original name for Africa (Africa &#8211; Babylon word meaning &#8216;divided&#8217;). Thousands of years ago through a special lineage, the drumming is here today with many variations, and the one I &#8216;stant is the bass and drum.</p>
<p>The bass represents the thunder and the drum, the lightning. This way of praising Jah was originated by King David through divine inspiration. I &#038; I are in the house of King David unto this very day as written in the Holy Bible.<br />
Nyahbingi drum patterns are the root of all modern style drumming.</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>Jungle is a way of life. Concrete Jungle is all InI see all day in Babylon. Jungle Music represents the Ghetto, a voice for the youth. A platform for talented artistes to speak to the world (without Babylon intervention) FREE of them. So I n I can a talk one to one million.</p>
<p>InI grow up the same as Ghetto youth all over the world brought to Babylon by slave-ships. Nuff hardship suffering, so InI search and don&#8217;t stop searching for Jah who is Truth until InI see Jah in all things.</p>
<p>Jungle music brings a message of peace, love and unity because of these positive vibrations you see the fight InI music gets in Babylon. Till they tried to kill jungle music, I don&#8217;t need to say anymore it&#8217;s already known to all true Junglists.  keep the jungle fire burning&#8230;.JAH LIVE.</p></blockquote>
<p><a href="http://www.congonattymusic.com/contents/inspiration.asp">-the Inspiration page</a></p>
<blockquote><p>when people say they love jungle some really do but then they start dj ing or mc ing and then forget about jungle and start trying to elevate themselves.many forget where jungle is coming from and why it is here.be humble and let jungle lead, Jungle is bigger than flesh.producers djs mcs record labels promoters distributors magazines- jungle is bigger than that .jungle is timeless jungle is priceless &#8211; jungle is bless.</p>
<p>the jungle revolution</p>
<p>BIG UP ALL JUNGLIST</p>
<p>NO ONE IS TAKING JUNGLE ANYWHERE JUNGLE IS TAKING I AND I ON A JOURNEY</p>
<p>LOVE THE JUNGLE DONT TRY TO TO CONTROL THE POWER ITS TOO GREAT.</p>
<p>ASK THE YOUTHS ABOUT COOL HERC OR LEE SCRATCH PERRY THEY MIGHT KNOW THE NAMES BUT THE MAJORITY ARE REALLY INTRESTED IN THE CURRENT ARTISTES AND THE POWER HAS SHIFTED TO A WHOLE NEW GENERATION OF ARTISTES, SO HIP HOP AND REGGAE MUSIC KEEP GROWING AS PRODUCERS COME AND GO.JUNGLE HAS ALREADY OUTGROWN MANY PRODUCERS AND MC .JUNGLE HAS  MOVED TO THE NEXT LEVEL .THIS IS JUNGLE MUSIC .</p>
<p>IF A TREE HAS NO ROOTS HOW CAN IT GROW</p>
<p>DONT FORGET THE ROOTS OF HIP HOP</p>
<p>HIP HOP AND REGGAE GIVE THE YOUTHS HOPE IN THIS HELL CITY</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>Jungle is a way of life&#8230;..from the life you get the music &#8230;the music from the streets is the only real music right now&#8230;..once those babylon get there hands on the street vibe they try to control it and switch it round into there pop bloodclaat &#8230;.i n i see through the smoke screen of hype , fake record sales &#8211; fake charts and playlists &#8230;&#8230;</p>
<p>Bob Marley and peter tosh proved that real music doesnt need goliath because real music is david&#8230;&#8230;..jungle is like samson with the donkey jaw bone slewing the demons of this time with word sound and power&#8230; i n i dont come to fight flesh and blood but spiritual wickedness in high and low places&#8230;..        &#8230;.bass and treble-the sling and pebble..</p></blockquote>

<blockquote><p>&#8216;Afro Punk Reggae Dub&#8217; does exactly what it says on the tin, and more besides. It&#8217;s sheer groove is something to behold &#8211; driven by a fugged-out bassline that&#8217;s very much rooted in dub but combines with the drums to forge a sound that&#8217;s easily as disco as anything Larry Levan ever dropped at the Paradise Garage. Chuck in the afro-style percussion and, of course, the steel drums, and you have yourself a genre-vaulting carnival anthem that sounds as fresh and full of life now as it did upon release 29 years ago.</p>
<p>Steel An&#8217; Skin were a band of young nightclub musicians born in Ghana, Nigeria, Trinidad, St Kitts and the UK, who once performed with Ginger Johnson&#8217;s Afrika Drummers, a highlife band based in and around Honest Jon&#8217;s Ladbroke Grove HQ.</p></blockquote>
