Majekodunmi Fasheke, popularly known as Majek Fashek, and Oseloke Augustine Onwubuya, better known as Ras Kimono. The two important figures in the history of African and Nigerian reggae are pictured together in this unusual photo, signifying an important turning point in the genre’s development.
Majek Fashek, also known as the “Rainmaker,” was acclaimed for his distinctive blend of reggae and traditional African rhythms, while Ras Kimono was well-known for his socially aware lyrics and strong voice. This picture not only honors their relationship but also demonstrates their enduring influence on the world of music.
Majek Fashek died in 2020, two years after Ras Kimono went away in 2018. May God grant them eternal rest. Their contributions to music in general and reggae in particular will always be honored and appreciated.
