Here after
When freedom, justice and equality will ring in the hearts and in the minds of all men
Here after
When man has consumed knowledge, wisdom and understanding from what he has overlooked for so long
Yes, there will be peace for all, here after (As-salamu alaykum)

Here after, when hate is gone
Here after, we'll sing a song of love
Here after, when hate is removed
Here after, no fear.. No fear
Just love

Here after

Kool & the Gang is an American jazz, R&B, soul, funk, and disco group from Jersey City. They were originally named the Jazziacs when they formed the group in 1964.

They went through several musical phases during their recording career, starting out with a purist jazz sound, then funk and R&B, progressing to a smooth pop-funk ensemble, and in the post-millennium creating music with a modern, electro-pop sound.

The group was becoming prominent in the music industry in the 1970s with hits such as “Holly Wood Swinging”, “Jungle Boogie” and “Summer Madness”. However they cemented their legendary status after the addition of lead vocalist James “J.T.” Taylor. With his help they went on to create classic hits such as “Ladies Night”, “Celebration”, “Get Down On It”, “Cherish” and countless others.
