This track was released in October 2006 on Jah Sun's album Height Of Light through More Love Productions. As you can guess from the title the track is a pro-vegetarian/vegan song.
Tracks like this are inspiring to Ital living, especially when you look at all the people in the video and notice that none of them are fat and all look healthy! Seeing the old Rasta man is evidence that Ital is Vital. Plus the kai in the video looks amazing!
This track has a very catchy chorus. The quality of the lyrics are high and all three artists also come very strongly in their verses.
I particularly like Ras Attitudes lyrics when he bluntly says:
'You are what you eat
That's why you walk like pig
You are what you eat
That's why you [snort] like a pig
You treat your body wrong your own a grave you dig'
In today's society everyone needs to be reminded of this fact as there is so much propaganda (advertising) that glorifies food that is clearly very bad for you.
Jah Sun's lyrics - 'this the one for love all of my vegetarians, raw fooders and vegans and all the breathetarians' - prompted me to look into what a breathetarian is from Wikipedia;
'Inedia is the alleged ability to live without food. Breatharianism is a related concept, in which believers claim food and possibly water are not necessary, and that humans can be sustained solely by prana (the vital life force in Hinduism), or according to some, by the energy in sunlight. The terms breatharianism or inedia may also refer to this philosophy practiced as a lifestyle in place of the usual diet.'

So there is lots of interesting information and thoughts around concept. But back to the tune...I would be very interested to hear this tracks instrumental as I feel with its bass line it could fit into a hip-hop set very easily.
Other tracks from Lutan Fyah concerning ital living are Natural Herbs and the title-track from the same album Healthy Lifestyle on Xterminator Records (2006).

Nice work Hawk i!
I reckon quite a few people could benefit from giving
'breathetarianism' a go for a couple of weeks. Especially the philistines who frequent Courtenay Place...
Wow, that egg and courgette pie really did push you over the edge! LOL. Well said all in all though,I look forward to hearing this track.
