As fate would have it, Royal developed a special relationship with Daniel ‘Bambaata’ Marley (son of Ziggy Marley) at school. His friendship with Daniel proved to be fuel to the fire as they shared a deep passion for music and football. Blessed with a voice that captures the pain and hunger of a ‘downtrodden’ people; Royal’s militant character and profound lyricism caught the heart of heralded reggae producer, Philip ‘Fatis’ Burrell. Fatis Burrell, affectionately called ‘Father’ had a great and pure impact on the ‘old soul’ of Jesse; as he credits him as an invaluable inspiration and one of the most influential individuals that he has ever encountered. He started releasing his first official songs in 2011. Working with musicians such as Sly & Robbie, Donald Dennis, Earl ‘Chinna’ Smith and Monty Savory; Jesse is currently in the studio putting the final touches on his debut album with producer Kareem Burrell of the XTM.Nation. Jesse Royal also recently released his debut mixtape dubbed ‘Misheni’, which means ‘The Mission’ in Swahili.

Modern Day Judas
Jesse Royal Lyrics
Now in comes the musical thing
From the King's offspring
Jesse Royal
Some people you'll rate and them still choose to show you hate
Run dem out a yuh yard
From dem a play bad card
Dem a backbiters
Hypocritical two-side lass
We call them modern day Judas
The spreaders of rumors
Oh dem a backbiters
Hypocritical two-side lass
We call them modern day Judas
Spreaders of rumors
Aye, aye, so why should I be afraid of you
When you bleed just like I do
The more you try fight Jah Jah light keep shining through
So I've got no time for you
'Cause in my view you wanna step in mi shoe
You wish you never live a luu and feel so damn confused
Oh every day you wake, you ache because you know you fake
And every step you take a bring you closer to your grave
But I am like a column we no easily shake
Mi certain say fi mi no a unnu can't take
We guided by the Master
Defender of the Fate
Yes, ordained to be Great
Oh dem a backbiters
Hypocritical two-side lass
We call them modern day Judas
And spreaders of rumors
Oh dem a backbiters
Hypocritical two-side lass
We call them modern day Judas
Spreaders of rumors
But you teeth and tongue gonna let you down
Reward for your words shall be profound
Oh screw all you want but go low and drown
Mi slew you like Goliath with a stone from mi crown
Not even the dog that pisseth on the wall of Babylon
Shall escape in this time
So words to the wise choose the right side
And don't be hindered by you foolish pride
I say no weapon formed against I-n-I shall prospa (prospa)
So tell Mr. Force ripe and mawga dog
Disrespect and face disaster
'Cause dem a backbiters
Hypocritical two-side lass
We call them modern day Judas
Spreaders of rumors
Oh dem a backbiters
Hypocritical two-side lass
We call them modern day Judas
Spreaders of rumors
But I man denied concoctions you brew
You can gi mi spliff eh mi neva see a sluu
You can't gi mi stew not even cashews
Some a say mi paro, some a say a narrow views
But I can't forget what Adolf did the jews
And what his friends did to the Tuff Gong too
All in the name of suppressing the truth
But I absolute mi them can't polute
'Cause dem a backbiters
Hypocritical two-side lass
We call them modern day Judas
Spreaders of rumors
Oh dem a backbiters
Hypocritical two-side lass
We call them modern day Judas
Spreaders of rumors
Oh dem a backbiters
Hypocritical two-side lass
We call them modern day Judas
Spreaders of rumors
Oh dem a backbiters
Hypocritical two-side lass
