A word from Ranking Roger...

In my eyes, Beat music has always stood for diversity, we are forever incorporating new styles into our music as we move along. The Beat wasn't originally meant for everyone, but over the years the music has lived on and earned a certain respect for basically being innocent, brave and honest.

Nowadays, I see the same problems we had nearly thirty years ago coming back. This is why we still play Beat music, it is timeless appealing to the future as well as now.

There are not enough real issues out there in music helping to guide the up and coming generations, who need to be re-educated in these times, it's as if some gangster rappers have influenced the youth of today pushing them towards violence and guns, and sending them totally in the wrong direction.

We are here to promote peace, love and unity in the hope that it will uplift the people once more, and offer the realisation that there is always hope out there.
