About My Name Is Pato Banton: An Autobiography
Pato Banton, aka Patrick Murray, was left for dead at the age of five, an orphan at six, a doorman and “lookout” for illegal late-night parties by eight, a DJ on a Jamaican sound system by twelve, and dropped out of school for good by thirteen. He was winning rap battles by age fifteen, became the father of three children at seventeen, and was incarcerated for the first time at the age of eighteen. By nineteen he was touring with UB40, and by twenty was at the top of the music charts in the UK. He spent his twenties and thirties recording album after album and touring around the world tirelessly, culminating in a Grammy® nomination. By forty, the middle-school dropout became the Head of The Music Department at one college and Assistant Director of Creative Studies at another, even creating his own school and music program for disadvantaged youth. By fifty, Pato was homeless (by choice), living in an RV in a parking lot in Los Angeles. Now almost sixty, Pato lives simply but comfortably with his talented and beautiful wife Antoinette Rootsdawtah, still makes beautiful music, still continues to tour the USA and the rest of the world extensively, and has become an internationally renowned minister and teacher of the Urantia Book. Throughout it all, he’s never stopped being a father to his eleven children, never stopped touring, and never stopped spreading his message of Positivity & Love as far and wide and loud as he is able. This is Pato’s story.
