RESPECT | AUTARCHii - Black Liberation Cry

In the golden era of Reggae, it was said that the music reflected strong messages of Rastafari and was the sound of the ghetto, as it often referenced the dilapidation of the sufferer’s environment. Being the son of Veteran Recording Artist Donovan Joseph and the cousin to the crown prince of Reggae, Dennis Brown, AUTARCHii is adamant about continuing the mission of Reggae’s golden era. His lyrics and melodies seem to be fiery and educational simultaneously. He has had the pleasure of being a mentee of the late legendary Wayne ‘Sleng Teng’ Smith, who taught him many ins and outs of the music industry at the tender age of 17. The name ‘AUTARCHii’ depicts ‘autarchy,’ which means absolute rule or power. His cousin officially placed it on him, who believed that his revolutionary approach to music would make him inextinguishable.
