    All that including the high notes is all FIJI the godfather of island pacific reggae, Da GOAT. Every artist from the south pacific will tell you the same. He paved the way for all other artists that came after him. His songs are all staples here for us in polynesia and all the south pacific.

      He helped bring it to the masses. Many consider him the Marvin gaye of the Pacific. Jawaiian music started before Fiji.
