In this soul-shaking and spirit-lifting episode of the Reggae Hour Podcast, host Mr. E welcomes legendary reggae frontman Billy Mystic of the Mystic Revealers — the band that has been delivering truth, justice, and JAH love since the late 1970s.

🌍 Straight from Bull Bay, Jamaica, Mystic Revealers rose from sound system culture to global roots reggae acclaim — releasing tracks like “Mash Down Apartheid” (with Jimmy Cliff), “Justice for the Poor”, and their latest prophetic album, “Jah Jah People.”

🎙️ In this deep and heartfelt conversation, Billy Mystic takes us on a journey through:

The founding of Mystic Revealers and the early sound system days

Their fearless anti-apartheid anthem that reached the African National Congress

Why the band refused to abandon roots reggae for the flash of digital dancehall

The fire that burned his home — and how it revealed what really matters

Building “Pon Di Verandah” studio with his children and recording again after the ashes

The true purpose of ganja culture and how modern misuse has strayed from spiritual roots

His faith in the Most High JAH and the redemption that powers his every lyric

“Victory is easy... what you have to learn is how to handle defeat, disappointment, and still keep going.” — Billy Mystic

“We’re not just a band. We’re doing the works of the Most High JAH, Rastafari.”

“Life is like surfing. You paddle with everything you have to catch the wave — then rise and ride it with purpose.”
