One of The Gambia's leading reggae musician, Royal Messenjah was captured buying ram at the Abuko Livestock Market. 

The video, which was shared by the award-winning singer on Instagram, garnered more than 3000 views. He wrote: "My favorite spot, Abuko." 

In the video, Royal could be heard saying he is looking for a ram that would be easy to grill. 

Isn't the singer a real RASTA? 

"I don't think Royal knows the beliefs and principles of Rastafari. Having dreadlocks doesn't make one a rasta. But he is a brilliant reggae singer," said a Gambian music enthusiast. 

To stay healthy and spiritually connected to the earth, rastas only eat a natural diet free from additives, chemicals, and meat. They believe eating pure, organic food increases one’s natural connection with nature.
