I hate you and myself. "I need to pick myself up. I really try". The beast of past ghosts, falling, leaves the improvised scene!
The word "Raggae" means regular, regular rhythm tending to hypnotize and put the listener into a trance (trans).

Massimo Tartaglia, but when he sings he lets himself go, dances in front of the problems and the stuttering disappears, his voice becomes seductive, freeing itself in the air like the song of birds, and each time he starts anew. He used to shut himself at home, sitting awkwardly on a chair, spending hours in a chat, seeking out an uninhibited eighteen-year-old to strip for him in front of the webcam, until one day he met Peter.
Peter was never his idol, also because his "god Jah" was Bob Nesta Marley, and through his hypnotizing melodies, he spread the "shanty" (good news) to his friends who took him for a madman. They were the crazy ones with a 100-euro watch on their wrist. Zyon and Babylon for his peers were surreal and meaningless revelries, but for him, they represented reality, a distorted but clean reality, where the first thing was to let yourself go with the music. He grew up between "Africa Unite" and "Ride Natty Ride", becoming aware of the existential differences in people, learning that the world was deceitful and vile, like the people living in it. Peter Tosh, apart from playing with Bob Marley in The Wailers, managed to create something of his own, and this Massimo understood when he first saw one of his concerts in the Rastafarian temples, with the lion of Judah talisman, with the herb instrument in hand, and the intoxicating melodies accessible to all believers present. From that moment Peter Tosh with "I'am What I'am" and "Pick My Self Up", introduced him to a new sphere of knowledge fully applicable to life.

Indeed, if Bob Marley had made compromises with the Western world that wanted him and all his predecessors as slaves while he sang "Fly Away Home Zyon", Peter Tosh stays there apart (so to speak) but then enterprising acts within the Rastafari way of life, deluding Massimo that he still doesn’t have a false idol in front of him, one Shane McGowan after a throw of a cobblestone in the face, without even realizing Massimo without hesitation started spreading the "shanty" around the world, recalling Peter's heroic deeds with a deep and philosophical peace message and some trite phrases to gain the attention of the most elusive girls.
Peter Tosh, barbarously killed by the dirty hands of American secret services, was nothing more than a free spirit stopped in flight. Massimo put aside all the cheap lyrics of traumatic indie music and fully immersed himself in that philosophy that still characterizes him today, until one day, with his long dreads just before a concert in honor of Peter Tosh, an "original" Caribbean approached him on stage, who with all the world's hate unraveled the truth to him, the Babylon (those who want to conquer) were nothing more than the Italians who in the infamous and squalid predation of the Second World War had attacked Ethiopia and Somalia, which were defending themselves with wooden spears, true pariahs of the Rastafarians, his animal spirit abandoned him, poor Massimo felt cornered, and could do nothing but rethink the past and the present, a present that idealized Mussolini and his imperial campaign worth a dime, thus he did, he cut his dreads and went back behind that screen slowly dying like the joint of herb that flooded his middle-class home, but on iTunes, he would always start that track that took him back in time to when he still felt clean and no longer stuttered, now Massimo tartaglia again, more than ever, is one of us.
The whole story is the product of a distorted view and especially the excessive use of alcohol by the author, any reference to people, facts, and things is purely coincidental, if you don’t know him open Peter Tosh's drawer and discover how he was made and what he wanted to say.
