One of the earliest songs of RAM and was even a soundtrack to the 1993 Tom Hanks' movie "Philadelphia".

The Ibo or Igbo is an ethnic group in West Africa. In Haitian vodou, it is a "nation" honored and recognized within the practice that some Haitians trace their ancestry to. It is said the song (rhythm) is of the Igbo people who lived in Elele, Nigeria and were transported to Haiti as slaves. Hence the title "Ibo lele" and the hommage.

Background: RAM (stands for the initial of its founder) is one of the most prominent vodou-themed bands in Rasin (roots) music. Created in 1990 by Richard A. Morse (mother is Emerante de Pradines, Haitian folklore dancer and singer) who moved to Port-au-Prince, seeking to explore Haitian and Caribbean music, RAM is known for its interesting fusion of traditional music and rock n' roll. As beloved as they are and known for being the people's voice, the group has survived kidnapping threats, assissination threats because of their tendency to speak out against government regimes in their music.

Richard, and his wife Lunise are the group's lead singers.

You are talking about song but I am not talking about song. We are questioning the root of the words 'Ibo lele' If it is a spirit of vodou , what is the origin of the spirit. The word Ibo is not a native of western hemisphere. It is from west of Africa at the ancient kingdom of Biafra that is the arguement. it is not a spanish word neither is it a creole word? Therefore, it shows Ibo presence in your music and culture.

Google the Igbo and Haiti relationship and hear from other Haitian historians. I am not begging you to be Igbo. Igbos are in Belize, Haiti , Georgia(USA) and many other places in the western hemisphere. In Haiti , our descendants constitute appreciable percentage of your population. I know that there are other people in Haiti with Spanish link and etc.

If you want to know about the relationship between Igbo and Haiti, please go and read Dr Duavaliar Papa Doc address to Igbo delegation (Dr Ikejiani and Mr Chukwuma Azikiwe of Biafra -Igbo Country) to Haiti in 1968-69.

Haitians need to turn away from that hamitic religion called voodoo and return to there true religion the knowledge of the most high and his commandments and realize that they are hebrew israelites if they don't will continue to be beaten with many stripes every one worst than the other.
