having seen his brother killed through the violence in his drug and crime infused community and having grown up listening to the sound of bullets as he fell asleep at night, anderson decides that he has had enough - he asks himself, what can he, or one person do, to provoke some sort of social change - and the result is his turning to music.

holding much musical talent, he along with a group of friends begin fusing the sound of hip-hop with the grooves of reggae, creating a new sound called afro-reggae, which leads to the formation of the hugely popular grupo cultural afro reggae (afro-reggae group).
