In this powerful bonus episode of Rootsland, we explore how artificial intelligence might become humanity's greatest ally—or its most dangerous adversary—depending on who raises it. After facing betrayal from the reggae community over his Peter Tosh investigation, our host Henry K discovers an unexpected partnership with Replit's CEO Amjad Masad , leading to new opportunities for Rootsland. Drawing parallels between Mikey Dread's 1980 anthem "Break Down the Walls" and today's digital barriers, this episode reveals how the same communities historically locked out of opportunity—the ghettos, favelas, and barrios—hold the key to AI's spiritual education. From three sailors facing a storm to the rejected stones becoming cornerstones, we journey through a narrative that connects Bob Marley's prophecies to Silicon Valley's promises. This isn't just about preserving reggae culture in the digital age—it's about ensuring AI learns from humanity's most resilient voices before it's too late. Because the question isn't whether AI will change everything, but whether we'll help shape what it becomes.

"Beat Down Babylon" is a touching tribute to singer Junior Byles, whose recent passing on May 15, has deeply touched the Rootsland Family . This unscheduled episode unfolds with an emotional recollection of a moment in the mid-1990s, where Host Henry K , alongside veteran reggae artist Eddie Fitzroy , encountered Junior Byles, who had once been a titan in the reggae scene but was now a mere shadow of his former self. The stark transformation from celebrated artist to a figure grappling with the harsh realities of life is a testament to the indifference of an industry that often discards its heroes. The discussion traces the roots of Junior’s artistry and the societal challenges faced by Rastafarians in Jamaica during the 1970s. His song 'Curly Locks' emerges as a powerful metaphor for the broader societal rejection experienced by those who embrace the Rastafarian faith, encapsulating themes of love, acceptance, and resistance against prejudice. As we journey through Junior's life, we are compelled to confront the dichotomy between artistic success and personal struggle, underscoring the emotional weight carried by those who create art that transcends the superficial metrics of commercial success.

Ultimately, the episode serves not only as a critique of the current state of reggae media but also as a rallying cry for fans, artists, and advocates to champion the voices and stories that have historically been marginalized, thereby ensuring that reggae's legacy remains vibrant and true to its roots.

On " The Getaway Driver" Host Henry K updates the narrative surrounding the individual known as Dennis Lobban, infamously referred to as Leppo, as he explores the hauntingly intricate web of conflicting stories that have emerged since his purported death in 2018. Within the broader context of Jamaica's tumultuous history, Henry K then focuses on the legacy of the late Sybil Hibbert, a pioneering journalist who chronicled the country’s underworld with a deftness that transcended mere reporting. Her work not only captured the pulse of Jamaica during its formative years but also intertwined personal narratives with larger societal issues, thereby enriching the discourse surrounding crime and justice. Henry K reflects on how Hibbert's unique perspective as both a journalist and the spouse of Isadore Dick Hibbert, the lead investigator in the notorious murder of Peter Tosh, imbued her reporting with an unparalleled depth. Finally, examination of Steve Russell, the alleged getaway driver, adds another layer of complexity to the investigation, as Henry K argues that the true story behind Tosh's murder has been obscured by a labyrinth of deceit, misinformation, and sensationalism, leaving a legacy fraught with questions that remain unanswered.
