Best Answer

The Rastafari movement is an African-based spiritual ideology that arose in the 1930s in Jamaica. It is both a religion and a way of life. A number of musicians has been Rastas. But it would be incorrect to refer to Ras Tafari as music, as it is much more than that.

How has Rastafarianism changed the lives of its followers?

Rastafarianism rose out of an impovershed and violence-ridden Jamaican background where many citizens had lost their identity and faith. Rastafarianism (though Rastas would say it is not an ism) has brought a message of peace as a Christian faith while connecting themselves to modern Africa through their worship of Haile Selassie I (Ras Tafari.) Many find peace in ganja (otherwise known as "the healing of the nation) and in the Christian belief of salvation.
