Binghi-ghost. That's two different words representing a different kind of artist, a modern day reggae artist. Binghi comes from the Rastafarian word for nyabinghi: meaning the real deal original chanting that Rastafarians use to give thanks and praises thru singing. It comes from the ancient 'griots' of Africa who used a similar type of chanting to tell stories.

Ghost is the 'add-on' that came from an old Rasta breddrin from the Virgin Islands who recognized two things. One: that Binghi was a white dread, and two that he was a baaaaaad man on the mic with his reggae style. Thus, Binghi-Ghost, the moniker, was born.

Hailing from a little island in the Caribbean called St. Croix, B. ghost was raised with all the ingredients to make him a reggae force to be reckoned with. The culture of the island and the direct linkage to old, west African customs and cultures, has given Mr. Ghost all the tools he needs to go in a straight line with his music, as he likes to say..."forward ever, backward never". Plus, he is an individual who truly feels the music and lets it envelop him in its pulsing rhythms and melodies.

As a conscious Rasta man, B. ghost is ever aware of the impending danger and chaos of the times. He feels we, as humans on this, our only earth, are at a crossroads. The crossroads we are at will not let us sit idly by, and Mr. ghost also believes that if we do sit idly by, then history will be a harsh judge of humanity. But, it is not too late to gather the masses on an ideological plane where we are one forward thinking, conscious, ever-aware group of humans, the likes of which has not been seen for millennia. That is why B. Ghost is a street scholar. That is why he wants to continue his pursuit to achieve the awareness of millions. We are strong. We do have force. And we can accomplish what we set our minds to do.

So, if you think you've heard it all, or given to worthy causes before, Binghi ghost, asks you and invites you, to come along for a ride with the street scholars team. We won't let you down; we are going straight ahead, why don't you join us.
