Ras has achieved international recognition winning the USA WAM Reggae/World Music Song of the Year Award in 2020 with his song Africa Oseeyeii and in 2021 with his song WOMBA. Ras is powered by his Band ‘The Hope of Africa’, a collective of talented Adelaide based musicians and together they bring World Music to the stage.
