(SACRAMENTO, CA) - Agron Belica is gaining a larger audience every day with his songs about disaster and human suffering. He is ahead of his time and the world is struggling to keep up with him. As his songs show, central to his thinking is the suffering of the Palestinians and the brave activists who have even given their lives in their work to aid them. From there, his songs have embraced the developments of what many call 'The Arab Spring.’ He has also written songs about my articles revealing the war crimes in Sri Lanka. It is hard work but the harder it gets, the finer this musician who uses the name 'Ace', becomes. Perhaps it is the ultimate lesson in following your heart. We all know right from wrong, but it takes courage to do anything about injustice. Agron’s music embodies that courage. He writes about the horrors of circumcision, female and male. His song "Leave Those Babies Alone" will be featured in an upcoming parade in San Francisco, the largest that city sees each year. This latest video released by Aldin Entertainment in collaboration with DBEATS Records, Unleashed, captures the spirit of an entertainer who is even better known as the author of the thought-provoking book, The Crucifixion: Mistaken Identity? John the Baptist and Jesus the Christ. Agron told me he wants to express a special ‘thank you’ to two hard-working activists in humanitarian causes with whom he has been in touch: Jo Mccoll in New Zealand, active in Palestinian and other causes, and Patrick Smyth in England (who prefers to be called an ‘intactivist’ for his stand on circumcision). Agron says, “I am very grateful for their support. Let the music begin! GIVE ME A PEN AND A MIC AND I WILL MAKE SOME NOISE Unleashed by Ace (Agron Belica) feat. Jo Mccoll & Patrick Smyth Published on Mar 26, 2013
