Background notes
Archive material and source history
Majek Fashek was born in 1949 in Benin City. He started playing music with a local band called The Jastix in the mid-1970s, where he worked as both a guitarist and vocalist.
His 1988 album 'Prisoner of Conscience' included the track 'Send Down the Rain,' which earned him the nickname 'Rainmaker.' The album blended reggae and Afrobeat with spiritual themes. He recorded a version of 'Hotel California' that appears among his most recognized songs.
Fashek faced personal difficulties in the late 1990s, including struggles with addiction and mental health that led to time in rehabilitation. He kept performing and recording into the 2000s, working with other artists occasionally. His later albums included 'Spirit of Love' and 'Unlimited Dreams.'
