I get my words from God and I write down the message.”— Don Dada, the revolutionary voice behind Rise Up and The Heart & The Mind This is not your average artist interview. This is a global call to truth. On this powerful episode of the Reggae Hour Podcast, we sit down with South Africa’s genre-defying musical prophet Don Dada, the first artist from his country to be signed to Bob Marley’s Tuff Gong International, and a leading voice of resistance, youth empowerment, and artistic revolution across the African continent. 🎧 Streaming July 3rd at 7PM CT on:iHeartRadioAmazon MusicApple PodcastsSubscribe and Tune In. This is the conversation they don’t want you to hear. 🗣️ What You’ll Hear: 🔥 "You can’t be speaking on something you don’t understand. Let people from that culture speak for themselves."Don Dada breaks down the exploitation of African identity in global narratives. From whitewashed media headlines to cultural erasure, he calls on creatives worldwide to listen before speaking. 🔥 “We should be focused on strengthening home because once we do that, our voice becomes powerful on the global stage.”A searing critique of economic dependency and imported validation. This quote alone reshapes the global music industry's role in Africa. Build at home. Then rise. 🔥 "Africa has been looked at as a sleeping entity... to see them awakening now, realizing their power—it’s a beautiful thing."This is the heartbeat of the African Renaissance. Dada lays out a vision of unity, identity, and revolution powered by music and truth. 🔥 "Africa is as good as anywhere else in the world… we’re just exploited more than anyone else."No more sugarcoating. Don Dada exposes the propaganda war that keeps the real Africa hidden.Spoiler: It’s not starving children and mud huts—it’s gold veins worth trillions and youth ready to lead. 🔥 “If you're right next to them when their time is beginning, there's no difference—you just continue moving forward.”A masterclass in humility and mentorship.
