Martin Jondo, ½ German (father) and ½ Korean (mother), was born 1979 in Berlin. In the mid 90's Martin got in contact with the belief of Rastafar thereon he adapted the cult of reggae singing as well. Now with his new belief he was seeking his past through the nature, with guitar in his case and his new religion he created his first songs.
The Rebel - (*Wake up* from the album- Statements outa Babylon“), feature-tracks („Bloodhunter“ feat. Mellow Mark from his album „Sturm“, „Rainy Days“ with Gentleman, „Wunderlampe“ (Wonderlamp) with Silly Walks Movement) are some of his first tracks.
Although Martin Jondo seems like someone who just came out of the blue, but before his brakethough with his song Rainbow Warrior - he did a lot of background music with a lot of people. Due to his short present on these songs, people couldn't really get a hold of who it was. But he as been working for a long time wiht a lot of well known artist.
He was also two year on tour with Gentelman. So the short chubby guy you might have seen on Gentelmans tour videos on stage -. jup that’s Jondo alright.
(Silly Walks Movement) Soundsystems (Pow_Pow_Movement, (Phlatline Sound), (Redemption Sound)
(Kingstone Sound), (Concrete Jungle),
(Outayard International) and Smoking Tuna)
Believe it or not, but it wasn't before his tour with Gentelman on the year 2002 that he was accepted as a professional artist. Before that Jondo, this charismatic person, had been a bit shy guy and didn't take the shot he deserved. But on his own tour " Journey To Jah" Jondo totaly let lose and showed the world his true self. And with the song "Rainbow Warrior" he killed the crowed with passion and made them his for all eternity.
List of prizes he has conquered:
Best of Dancehall Reggae Dub Ska (2003).
Newcomer of the year (2004).
He was signed to do the music for the movie Golden days by the producer Peter Thorwarths.

There´s a well deep down in your soul my friend but no one knows now how this used to be
So if pink flowers cover the earth my friend
Well if pink flowers cover the earth till the end
So if pink flowers cover the earth my friend
Well if pink flowers cover the earth till the end
You will be free
You will be free
You will be free
I´m in jail down in captivity ´cause I´m a man who talks reality
Lord this hells will never burn my wings you see and I know one day we will be free
So if pink flowers cover the earth my friend
Well if pink flowers cover the earth till the end
So if pink flowers cover the earth my friend
Well if pink flowers cover the earth till the end
You will be free
You will be free
You will be free
You will be free
Hear Jah bell you don´t need eyes to see heal your soul and you will always be
Mystical spell all around my heart so sweet no more pain and bloodshed on the streets
So I blaze da chalice ´cause all I ever know
Is that if you´re not loving this world is going down
Dem say I´m going crazy but tell me where dem go
So he without sin come and cast the first stone
So if pink flowers cover the earth my friend
Well if pink flowers cover the earth till the end
So if pink flowers cover the earth my friend
Well if pink flowers cover the earth till the end
You will be free
You will be free
You will be free
You will be free
The lyrics to Martin Jondo's song "Pink Flowers" speak to the idea of freedom and hope in the face of captivity and despair. The first two verses are reflective and introspective, speaking to the idea that there is something special within each person, a well deep down in their soul, that can bring them out of whatever predicament they may be facing. The chorus suggests that if there were pink flowers covering the earth, the world would be a better place and we would all be free.
The third verse is a call to action, urging listeners to "Hear Jah bell" and heal their souls. This mystical spell around the singer's heart is "so sweet" and can lead to a world free from "pain and bloodshed on the streets." The final lyrics speak to the power of love and the necessity of it in the world, with the singer proclaiming that only those without sin can cast the first stone.
Overall, the lyrics paint a picture of a world strained with conflict and oppression, but one in which there is still hope for freedom and redemption. The pink flowers serve as a symbol of this hope, representing a better world that could still be achieved.

Smoking marijuana (blazing da chalice) is a way to connect with the world and spread love, despite what society may say. Those who judge others should consider their own flaws before casting stones
