The last time I hung out with reggae singer Kyng Arthur, he was sporting the most impressive crown of dreadlocks I’d ever seen, an elaborate network of oily coils he sometimes arranged into a turban, a work of art years in the making.
Kyng Arthur, you see, is one heavy dude, and I’d expect nothing less than an act of God behind any major decisions he makes in life.
On Prisoner, a CD which is some kinda masterpiece, Kyng Arthur sings of demons and burning flames, of lost souls and alien beings, of 10,000 warriors coming down from the sky to open up a serious can of whoop-ass, most likely on spiritually retarded heathens such as myself.
