How to make a ragga jungle nickname?

Multi-part nicknames in Jamaican reggae and British ragga jungle are a volatile mix of Jamaican gang slang, Rastafarian slang, musical jargon, and Patois. Everything is mixed up and written as it sounds: ruff—rough, tuff—tough, natty—cool, stylish, fyah—a joint, murdarah and kila—murderers, wailin—a liar, bomboclaat—a dumbass, ragga—clothed in rugs, selectah—a DJ, wax—a record, riddim—rhythm, dubplate—a test record for the audience.

Rastafarians, naturally, brought all the titles, such as General, Prince, Duke, King, and Admiral to match Ethiopian Haile Selassie, who was the first black crowned Emperor of Ethiopia from the Old Testament dynasty for nearly 50 years. This is where the words about black Zion, wicked Babylon (the rest of the world), Warriors/Soldiers who fight against it, and the lions, who were already depicted on the coat of arms of Jerusalem, come from. What does he have to do with it? Jamaican Marcus Garvey prophetically claimed in the 1930s that the most important are not those who are in Israel, but those who are from Ethiopia, the cradle of the black nation. When the black king ascends to the throne, we will quickly go from liberation to paradise on earth.
