IJenNeh pronoucned (eye gin nay) means Heaven. IJenNeh is an unique combination of Reggae, African, Gospel, and blues. Our music is lively & positive.
IJenNeh is an unique combination of Reggae, African, Gospel, Blues and Beatbox. Echoes of the Blind, was the first group organized by Lasana Kanneh (music director of IJenNeh), and based in Monrovia, Liberia. This group was composed of eight blind men who sang for food on the war ravaged streets of Liberia. Lasana remembers singing in the midst of rebel fighting with bullets flying over their heads. At different points, he was forced to sing for infamous war lords. While the former groups were all acappella, IJenNeh has added instruments and our signature drums. This has created our unique sound with outstanding vocals and pulsating beats.

Lyrics
War No Good My brother look around you What do you see? There is fighting everywhere My sister look around you What do you see? There is trouble everywhere My friend look around you What do you see? There is suffering everywhere Innocent people are dying everyday We don’t want no more war We don’t want no more destruction Everywhere you turn there is war War no good Chorus Everywhere there is war, war We don’t need no more fighting Everywhere there is war War no good (2x) We need to love one another We need to care for each other Too many lives have been lost When there is war, people die When there is war, people suffer Everywhere you turn there is war War no good Chorus Nation against nation Tribes against tribes Brother against brother It is time to come together We don’t want no more fighting All we need is peace Everywhere you turn there is war War no good Chorus Heavenly Father send down your peace We need your peace from heaven I pray for peace for the whole world Only you can bring us peace Lord My friends, let us stop this hate It is time to love one another It is time to look to the Savior Everywhere you turn there is war War no good Chorus Total destruction War no good We don’t want no more war War no good People are dying War no good Oh Lord, we need you Jesus Everyday, every night we need You Only You can save this world From total destruction Jesus only You Can bring peace to this world Words & Music Lasana Kanneh
