The inspiration to write this book did not require a protracted journey, but it would take one to finish. The taste for the fruit of knowledge endowed me to strive and equipped me with the tools necessary to complete this aspiration. The streams of emotions were derived from two ecstatic points. First, my late and beloved mother, Juliana Warmate, whose character personified a spirit of benevolence and forgiveness. Her candor and meritorious service to the Dokubo family is the exemplification of selflessness. These virtues were passed on to those she knew. Although it has been decades since her transition, it will always seem like yesterday.

An oral history of the UK's soundsystem culture, featuring interviews with Dubmaster Dennis Bovell, Skream, Youth, Norman Jay MBE, Adrian Sherwood, Mala, and others. In the years following the arrival of the Windrush generation, the UK's soundsystem culture would become the most important influence on contemporary pop music since rock and roll. Pumped through towering, home-built speakers, often directly onto the thronged streets of events like the Notting Hill Carnival, the pulsating bass lines of reggae, dub, rave, jungle, trip hop, dubstep, and grime have shaped the worlds of several generations of British youth culture but have often been overlooked by historians obsessed with swinging London, punk, and Britpop. This oral history, consisting of new interviews conducted by respected dance music writer Joe Muggs, and accompanied by dramatic portraits by Brian David Stevens, presents the story of the bassline of Britain, in the words of those who lived and shaped it. Features interviews with Dubmaster Dennis Bovell, Norman Jay MPE, Youth, Adrian Sherwood, Skream, Rinse FM's Sarah Lockhart and many others.

This book questions colonial and apartheid ideologies on being human and being African, ideologies that continue to shape how research is conceptualised, taught and practiced in universities across Africa. Africans immersed in popular traditions of meaning-making are denied the right, by those who police the borders of knowledge, to think and represent their realities in accordance with the civilisations and universes they know best. Often, the ways of life they cherish are labelled and dismissed too eagerly as traditional knowledge by some of the very African intellectual elite they look to for protection. The book makes a case for sidestepped traditions of knowledge. It draws attention to Africas possibilities, prospects and emergent capacities for being and becoming in tune with its creativity and imagination. It speaks to the nimble-footed flexible-minded frontier African at the crossroads and junctions of encounters, facilitating creative conversations and challenging regressive logics of exclusionary identities. The book uses Amos Tutuolas stories to question dualistic assumptions about reality and scholarship, and to call for conviviality, interconnections and interdependence between competing knowledge traditions in Africa.

This book is a carefully documented combination of my free transcendental thoughts, including many of my life experiences recalled and written precisely as creative stories. Some of them have been researched for affirmation, and there are some photos. Some of the stories may also be a bit unusual but true and somewhat ineffable. If anything written in this book, Free Mind Free Speech, seems to be offensive to anyone in any manner, I wish to apologize before you complete reading and cogitating about what you have read, and in the process, I hope that you find something in this book that is more than just words, but informative, enlightening, uplifting, or encouraging to your mind and your spirit. It is all taken from true experiences.
