Cry blood, cry blood
For my people, yeah, yeah
My people, people

Steel Pulse is one of the most successful British reggae bands, both creatively and commercially. Hailing from Handsworth, Birmingham, they began performing in the 1970s, blending authentic reggae roots with jazz and Latin influences. This unique approach earned them an international following, leading to the release of their debut album, "Handsworth Revolution", in 1978. Widely considered a landmark in British reggae, the album marked the beginning of a successful career. Before the end of the 1980s, Steel Pulse won a Grammy Award, cementing their status as prominent crossover reggae artists.
