Pierpoljak - Je Sais Pas Jouer | Review

Hello ReggaeSteemers,
Today I found a reggae artist from French; Pierpoljak. He sang Je Sais Pas Jouer from the album Kingston Karma in 1999.

About the artist; Pierpoljak

Pierpoljak, a French reggae star who has become known as the White Rasta, has not always espoused Rastafarism. Far from it, in fact. The singer has followed a fairly tortuous path to fame, with many ups and downs in his personal life, before achieving his current success.

Born in Paris on 7 September 1964, Pierpoljak (whose real name is Pierre) grew up in Colombes in the Paris suburbs. Pierre was a difficult adolescent who got into all sorts of trouble and in the mid-70s he got involved in the punk/skinhead movement. It was around the same time that he took his first steps as a musician, playing bass with a local band called Samu 92. Pierre's passion for punk eventually led to him moving to London in 1981 where he threw himself into the violent, aggressive sound of the "No future" movement. Living in a squat in Stockwell, in south-west London, Pierre gradually came to discover reggae through his Jamaican-born neighbors, listening to the likes of Desmond Dekker and Toots and the Maytals. This proved to be a big musical revelation for him.

Pierre eventually returned to France and got into trouble with the authorities, ending up serving time in Fleury-Mérogis prison. When he got out of jail, the young adventurer decided to take to the high seas, traveling around the Caribbean. Pierre signed up as a member of the crew of a cargo ship and spent the next few years sailing around the French West Indies and the Dominican Republic (an island he grew particularly fond of).

On his return to France, Pierre took up his old musical activities once again and began to make a name for himself on the Paris underground scene, performing under the pseudonym Brada Peter, then Peter Pan. I've managed to get two of his earliest tracks onto the 1994 compilation "Earthquake", an album that also featured up-and-coming reggae stars such as Sai Sai and Tonton David.

The lyrics

REFRAIN
J'sais pas jou-er autre a choisi que du reg-gae
J'sais pas dan-ser j're-mue que sur le reg-gae
J'sais pas reg-gae
J'sais pas chan-ter autre a choisi que du reg-gae
J'sais pas dan-ser j're-mue que sur le reg-gae

1. Les di-rec-teurs ar-tis-tiques ont
   la science en mu-sique
   Ils savent ce qui est bon ou pas
   Ils disent mon-sieur pé-kan
   Tu as une jo-lie voix
   mais pour-quoi t'en-tê-ter com-ça
   Prends plu-tôt une gratte sèche
   Laisse-toi pous-ser la mèche
   et ta cote va mon-ter en flèche

Refrain

Oh Oh é bla bla bla
Ils dis'des ouais ouais ouais ouais blah blah
Oh je les laisse par-ler et per-dre leur temps
Ils par-lent tout le temps
Oui je les laisse par-ler
et u-ser leur sa-li-ive
Ils par-lent tout le temps
Moi j'sais pas

1. En politique c'est…
