On the One Love Peace Concert he sings Peace Treaty and then he repeats "take no pictures" do you know why??

and by the way. The Song "I'm A Rastaman" he sings Natto Dreadlocks. But he should be singing natty dreadlocks. What is it all about

Joshua,

Jacob miller is acutally saying take nuff pictures, cameraman take nuff picutures these are the leaders of the peace committee. He was urging to the camera man to take a lot of pictures of caludie massop, bucky marshall, tony wales and one other person who were responsible for creating the peace committee to stop gangs from both sides of the political fence to stop fighting.

Give thanks.

completely right woldesemayat.

And the other point natto dreadlocks: Morgan Heritage said that Jacob Miller meant not a dreadlocks. Meaning that you don't have to have to dreadlocks to be a Rasta. I don't know if their interpretation is right.

"Cameraman tek nuff pic'tah!" "Nuff!"

do you mean with "natto dreadlocks" he means "nót a dreadlocks?"

"Natto dreadlocks" means "Natty dreadlocks".
Rasta man would take a word and then make it sound RASTA MAN TALK example "Natt up dreadlocks" means "Natty dreadlocks" its mixture of jamaican language "Irie"

i think maybe he is saying natural dreadlocks, but sometimes i hear not a dreadlocks, both make some sense

Yeah....he is saying: not a dreadlocks.
Many Rastafari do not wish to be addressed as a "dreadlocks"but as a Rasta.
Dreadlocks became a style in the 70's - Natty Dreadlocks became a fashionable catchphrase. Many Rastas wish to distance themselves from the fashion-style dreadlocks.

If the killer didn't died in 1980 in that f...ing car accident he would be ne next bob marley.
peace and love from i&i rasta

Yeah, I'm pretty sure he says Natt Up Dreadlocks....maybe meaning, "get your locks growing people"

Jah Love!
