Rest easy, Benjamin 🙏 such a brilliant poet🙏🙏
I came across him literally at the lights when I was waiting in my car in East Ham . I recognised him and he laughed when he realised I recognised him . He seemed to exude joy
You never sold out and always kept it real. RIP a true man of the people 💜
Mr. Benjamin Zaphaniah,
RIP Benjamin. Conscious Rasta, poet, musician and freedom fighter. We've lost three rebels in a very short space of time. Sinèad O Conner, Shane Macgowan and now Benjamin Zephaniah. All aged 65 (6 +5 =11 which is the ultimate angel number) and all angels on earth in their own different ways, but all rebels at heart. Safe upwards journey brother. 🙏🏼 🇪🇹 🙏🏼
I can't believe he was taken from us so abruptly. A great orator and writer. The UK is very own Linton Kwesi Johnson
I remember he came to my primary school when I was a kid and gave his book out to my older sister which I stole and then I saw him live when I was doing GCSE English. There was such a motion and rhythm and a brilliant sense of humour to his poetry and he was a lovely, humble, hilarious guy. Definitely inspired my love for poetry and reggae/ska music from an early age. R.I.P Benjamin. ❤
The news hasn't sunk in yet. Truly heartbroken. RIP 💔
Rest in peace Brother. Your work is done! You did an amazing job. Your voice will be heard for entirety ! You will be truly missed. Your legacy will live forever.
a loving open musical rebellious authentic soul...may he rest in everlasting peace
We worked at Benjamin's House last year and we became friends and stayed in regular contact with him.
man.. i've witnessed death among family and friends.. and i don't cry easily at death anymore. but this guy... his death broke me. not just because of the person he is, but for all that he had left to give to the world.
Rest in Power, BZ.
A proper fella. He could agree to disagree without the need to insult. RIP Benjamin and UTV. 🦁
He came to my school about 7 yrs ago, and he seemed like a genuinely nice guy so sad to see hin go RIP
Sorry to read this news. I met him when I was 9 or 10 and he hooked me on poetry and rhyming. I concidered him as one of my teachers in rhyming and definitely he is one the teachers of lowkey the rapper and activists and Akaala another brilliant poet, rapper, author and activist. One of he roots of UK BLACK MUSIC RIP.
