The Mystic Revealers burst onto the global reggae music scene in 1985 with their first major single,《Mash Down Apartheid》Produced by reggae legend Jimmy Cliff, the song equates political revolution with personal spiritual upheaval in a potently mystical manner. Proceeds from its sale were donated to South Africa’s African National Congress (ANC) to assist in that nation’s struggle for racial, social, and political equality. This philanthropic gesture, unusual for a first-time success, accurately reflects the convictions, sensibilities, perspectives, and priorities of the Rastafarian, politically-oriented Mystic Revealers.
