Fantan Mojah was born in the parish of St. Elizabeth, the "cockpit country" of the Maroons the runaway slaves long famed for their resilience and resistance. Their unbroken link with their African ancestry has resulted in a latent culture that has retained much of that African oriented past and this is most audible in the music coming from the region and exemplified by the music of Fantan Mojah. One listen to “Stronger” should leave the listener in no doubt as to the importance and significance of Fantan Mojah to Kingston's current resurgence of roots and culture.
