Chanting up Zion: Reggae As Productive Mechanism for Repatriated Rastafari In
Chanting up Zion: Reggae as Productive Mechanism for Repatriated Rastafari in Ethiopia David Aarons A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2017 Reading Committee: Shannon Dudley, Chair Giulia Bonacci Katell Morand Christina Sunardi Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Music i @Copyright 2017 David Aarons ii University of Washington Abstract Chanting up Zion: Reggae as Productive Mechanism for Repatriated Rastafari in Ethiopia David Aarons Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Shannon Dudley Ethnomusicology Since the 1960s, Rastafari from Jamaica and other countries have been “returning” to Ethiopia in the belief that it is their Promised Land, Zion. Based on extensive ethnographic research in Ethiopia between 2015 and 2017, this project examines the ways in which repatriated Rastafari use music to transform their Promised Land into a reality amidst various challenges. Since they are denied legal citizenship, Rastafari deploy reggae in creative and strategic ways to gain cultural citizenship and recognition in Ethiopia. This research examines how reggae music operates as a productive mechanism, that is, how human actors use music to produce social and tangible phenomena in the world. Combining theories on music’s productive capabilities with Rastafari ideologies on word-sound, this research further seeks to provide deeper insight into the ways Rastafari effect change through performative arts. I examine how Rastafari mobilize particular discourses that both challenge and reproduce hegemonic systems, creating space for themselves in Ethiopia through music. Rastafari use reggae in strategic ways to insert themselves into the contested national narratives of Ethiopia, and participate in the practice of space-making in Addis Ababa and Shashemene through sound projects.

Dr. Albert Widman Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Masters of Arts in Strategic Communication Seton Hall University South Orange, NJ The Bob Marley Effect 2 Abstract This study explores the legacy of Robert Nesta Marley through a comparison of his influence in Jamaica and the United States. The recognition that Bob Marley received, both during his life and after his death, is comparatively different between the two countries. As iconic as Marley is, why is his message and legacy different in the United States and most of his recognition not received till after his death? The researcher explores how Marley’s message was received in the two countries and whether his audience understood his philosophy and message in the same way. Results indicate that the communication of his thoughts were heard somewhat differently in Jamaica and the United States. Finally, this study presents recommendations for future research.

Interview with Aston “Family Man” Barrett Jas Obrecht
INTERVIEW WITH ASTON “FAMILY MAN” BARRETT JAS OBRECHT, FEBRUARY 14, 2011 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN I want to thank you for agreeing to talk with us. Yeah, man, it’s a pleasure for me too. I’m in the mood. I’d like to start by asking a question about your brother, Carly. Okay. Is it accurate to say that he was the inventor of the one-drop beat? Accurate. That’s da man. How did he come up with it? Well, you know, we always think of music, like the height of music. Robert said, “What is the heights of music?” Some people said soul music, some say classical, you know. We did a lot of research, and we realized that jazz is the heights of music. Jazz. So we decided to check out what jazz is all about, and we found out that it’s just a free-form music. So we decided to free-up ourselves [laughs], you know, encourage ourselves. And, of course, drums are the first instrument in music. You know, they used to use it a lot in Africa to send messages across the village and valley and city, everywhere. So what we do, we in-graft that kind of Nyabinghi communal and mix it with the Jamaica mento and then we decide to create that beat and feel it on the one-drop. And it become the heartbeat of the people. This is reggae. I and I are the architect of reggae. Is it true that your brother began playing on empty paint cans when you were children? Yes! And I started out on a one-string bass, which I made myself.

See Liner Notes
The Signal – A Doo Wop Rhapsody (Alternate title: “Play It Cool”) Audio Version/Liner Notes by Henry Farag Five decades, seven artists, a hundred musicians and one true story. Gary, Indiana…the story of a crystal radio wave as it permeates a boy’s chaotic street life. The audio version is not a cast album though a majority of the troupe is featured in the piece. The recording is made to fit the audio/radio/podcast format. From stage to streaming. A musical for your earbuds, yet a true representation of what happens on stage. A highlight is Vivian Carter. The first Black woman to own a successful record label, the legendary Vee Jay Records. She brought many pioneering R&B and Pop artists to the fore – including Gladys Knight & the Pips, the Four Seasons, and the Beatles. The production features a true narrative plus artists such as James “Pookie” Hudson & the Spaniels, Jerry Butler, Willie Rogers of the Soul Stirrers, Chris “Righteous” Johnson, and Stormy Weather, and a very special acapella cameo by the Temptations’ original lead singers, David Ruffin, Eddie Kendrick and Dennis Edwards. Among the renowned Chicago area studio musicians are: Phil Upchurch, Gene “Daddy G” Barge, Willie Henderson, “Tom Tom” Washington, Cash McCall, Morris Jennings, Matt Rose, Al Burroughs et al. In addition, other stellar musicians are Gary, Indiana’s Kinsey Report featuring Donald Kinsey, the former front man for Bob Marley; Chicago’s Umphrey’s McGee, New Orleans’ Dr. John (John Rebennack), Sump Pump, Tony McCullough.
