Hey Roots archivers !

I'm looking for a few songs i've heard recently in a roots dance :

The first one's chorus is "african warrior" (rocker stepper style). Can't find any song called african warrior in the database...

The second one has backing voices chanting "roots... roots... roots... roots... roots... " in the intro and in the chorus.

The third one mentions "hard times" in the chorus (the song could be called hard time) and is sung by clear and high women's voice.

I know this is really few to find out these songs... thank you all !

This for the first one perhaps?

No, this one is a mad prof dub version of channel one revolutionaries "kunte kinte" (vocal by creole called beware) !

I noticed the same tunes "the roots, the roots, the roots, dread lion !"

Upsetter, Dread Lion on Scratch The Super Ape

Actually, I noticed 2 other tunes :
the first is well-known but I can't remember the name or the artist, it goes like "I'd like to know somebody else, I'd like to ???????? I'd like to ?????????" (male voice but quite high and sweet)

and the other has the words "jah jah children babylon" in the lyrics, heavy roots but I can't remember the riddim (I just wrote those words on my cellphone).
