These riveting stage performances combine the folklore and rhythms of the Eastern Caribbean with urban US styles. His lyrics explore the struggles of today's youth, the resistance of the poor to oppression, the pranks of jumbies and other mythic beings, the hopes and grief of immigrants, the need for men to oppose the abuse of women and to value and support their children, and the powers of nature, Jah, and human love. .
