Asian Dub Foundation - Rebel Warrior

All Asian Dub Foundation records available at nationrecords....
itunes.apple.c...
As the Asian Underground took hold and influence into the alternative scene, musicians from similar backgrounds and narratives albeit very wide landscape gathered around the Nation label to find the platform they desperately needed to air not only their thoughts but their social and political stand point against a system that had denied or stigmatized them.History has always been an anchor to begin with and Asian Dub Foundation found their place and propagated their opinions right across the musical industry.Facts and Fictions album and Frontline albums, with a host of singles were released on Nation Records as the first part of their journey.
They remain active and relevant in a scene that albeit has lost its direction nevertheless they continue to output material and play globally. Rebel Warrior was their first video which showcased their work within the community.
The Frontline album is a collection of creative remixes and archive material - itunes.apple.c...

The beginning lines are from a poem of Kazi Nazrul Islam. He is a Bengali poet, writer, musician and revolutionary. He is the national poet of Bangladesh.

Kazi Nazrul is fire

[@mikeshramko8331]

@@pulakahmed You are so right that translation invariably diminishes culturally unique sentiments and ideas. However, it is my opinion that Kazi Nazrul, with this poem, has captured a quintessential aspect of the human condition and, as such, his meaning transcends language, culture, and indeed time and space. His notion of the ideal rebel is felt and understood by all of the oppressed of the world across peoples, nations, and continents. The Bengali people should indeed be most proud of his contribution to art and literature. His poem should be considered a world treasure, as such. I believe the Asian Dub Foundation proved it with this impressive lyrical masterpiece in English.

This paved the way for the music I make today. And everything is still the same except that I don't smoke or drink nowadays. This is brings back such good memories man. :')

I love this song! I’m an Irishman who first heard this song when listening to “Community Music” when I was living in Australia in 2000. I’m now a teacher in Mexico, but I still play this song for my students. ADF are a perfect example of cross-cultural fertilisation and how immigration can keep a culture vital and vibrant. Too bad that instead the UK decided to turn to narrow nationalism and Brexit in the interim. It had been a leading country in Europe for integration prior to the London Olympics in 2012. No longer, alas. But, all hail to the Asian Dub Foundation. ✊🏽 🇮🇳 🇵🇰 🇧🇩 🇱🇰

It's the thought of this song and being a rebel warrior that gets me through life

[@dust6969]

Lyrics: Ami bidrohi! I the rebel warrior I have risen alone with my head held high I will only rest When the cries of the oppressed No longer reach the sky When the sound of the sword of the oppressor No longer rings in battle Hear my war cry! I'm hear to teach you a lesson I'm hear to torture your soul I'm the itch in your side that's got out of control Gonna prey on your conscience You'll be praying for forgiveness Seen all the evidence No longer need a witness So take my word man Here's my sentence One hundred thousand years of repentance. Check my anger, it's real Ain't no token I'll be satisfied only when your back's been broken It's my burning ambition to burn down your empire Man I'll be building you a funeral pyre The fire in my eyes If looks coulda kill I won't be satisfied until I've had my fill. Check my anger, it's real Ain't no token I'll be satisfied only when your back's been broken Ami bidrohi! I the rebel warrior I have risen alone with my head held high I will only rest When the cries of the oppressed No longer reach the sky When the sound of the sword of the oppressor No longer rings in battle Hear my war cry! Repetitive beats beating against your skull I'll be striking you down To the sounds of the wardrum The doum! The doum of the dhol Taking it's toll Null and void is what you've become An underground army with my brothers and sisters Hand to hand fighting Building up a resistance Repetitive beats beating against your skull Null and void is what you've become Ami bidrohi! I the rebel warrior I have risen alone with my head held high I will only rest When the cries of the oppressed No longer reach the sky When the sound of the sword of the oppressor No longer rings in battle Hear my war cry! A radical fusion Strange alliance The siren and the flute in unison 'cause it?s a part of my mission To break down division Mental compartments Psychological prisons. I?ll be sowing the seeds of community accommodating every colour every need So listen to my message and heed my warning I'm telling you know How a new age is dawning Ami bidrohi! I the rebel warrior I have risen alone with my head held high I will only rest When the cries of the oppressed No longer reach the sky When the sound of the sword of the oppressor No longer rings in battle Hear my warcry! Ami bidrohi! ami bidrohi! Yes the unity of the hindu and the muslim Will end your tyranny Ami bidrohi! ami bidrohi!

[@AudioPervert1]

When ADF initially burst into the scene, in England, there was much euphoria, cause to celebrate this rebellious image and sound. Yet as seen in most cases, the band members strayed off to fend their own careers and the rest was eaten up and exoticized by institutions, mostly controlled and owned by white english folks. Now where is ADF? In terms of it's original force and spirit ?!

This band is my first pick to listen to Asian Underground. While pondering around on google for Jet Set Radio Future soundtracks for The Latch Bros. (AKA The Beastie Boys) soundtracks that they made for the game I decided I look for world music. Plus, listening to The Latch Brothers Bounce got me that vibe of Hindi or Asain beat for me so that is why I am here. Furthermore, this is big ups for me to put on my playlist very good songs I would say. 😉👍
