Rumor has it the band took their name from a Mayan ritual chant. Or Egyptian. Or both stories are legend. Either way, this would be a most badass last line in a speech to inspire folks to, well, kill, I guess. Enthusiastically. Enthusiastically kill.

We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent. I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita. Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says, "Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds." I suppose we all thought that one way or another.

Sons of Kemet - Black To The Future

20211009_100708.jpg

The album ends with a great dose of peroration thanks to Joshua Idehen on "Black"

And this black blaze is dance
This black sorrow is dance
These black prayers is dance
This black struggle is dance
This black pain is dance
This black struggle is dance
And this black blaze is dance
Just leave black be
You already have the world, just leave black be

Leave us alone!

Gotta post the whole speech...

Dearly beloved
We are gathered here today
To get through this thing called life

Electric word life
It means forever and that's a mighty long time
But I'm here to tell you
There's something else
The after world

A world of never ending happiness
You can always see the sun, day or night

So when you call up that shrink in Beverly Hills
You know the one, Dr. Everything'll Be Alright
Instead of asking him how much of your time is left
Ask him how much of your mind, baby

'Cause in this life
Things are much harder than in the after world
In this life
You're on your own

And if the elevator tries to bring you down
Go crazy, punch a higher floor

Not a speech but, it definitely inspires enthusiasm"

Let there be sound, and there was sound
Let there be light, and there was light
Let there be drums, there was drums
Let there be guitar, there was guitar
Oh, let there be rock!
