Kumina聽is an聽Afro-Jamaican聽religion. Kumina has practices that include secular ceremonies, dance and music that developed from the beliefs and traditions brought to the island by聽Kongo聽enslaved people聽and聽indentured labourers, from the聽Congo region聽of West Central Africa, during the聽post-emancipation聽era.聽It is mostly associated with the聽parish of St. Thomas聽in the east of the island. However, the practice spread to the parishes of聽Portland,聽St. Mary聽and聽St. Catherine, and the city of聽Kingston.
Tumblr media
Kumina also gives it name to a drumming style, developed from the music that accompanied the spiritual ceremonies, that evolved in urban Kingston. The Kumina drumming style has a great influence on聽Rastafari music, especially the聽Nyabinghi drumming, and Jamaican popular music.聽Count Ossie聽was a notable pioneer of the drumming style in popular music and it continues to have a significant influence on contemporary genres such as聽reggae聽and聽dancehall.
The聽Kumina riddim聽is a dancehall聽riddim聽produced by聽Sly & Robbie聽in 2002. It has featured in recordings of over 20 artists including聽Chaka Demus & Pliers聽and聽Tanya Stephens.

Kumina is an Afro-Jamaican Religion and is not the same as Pukkumina or Pocomania.
Kumina emerged through the practices of indentured labourers who were brought to Jamaica from the Kongo region of central Africa after聽the abolition of slavery.聽In the second half of the 19th century it syncretised with聽Myalism.聽Kumina differed from Zion Revivalism in rejecting the belief that the聽Bible聽should be the central authority behind worship.
The practices of Kumina are primarily linked to healing.[4]聽Healing ceremonies utilise singing, dancing, drumming, animal sacrifice, and spirit possession, with the intent of summoning spirits to heal the sick individual.聽These elements are also found in Myalism and Zion Revivalism.
Organization of Kumina communities follows the general local character of African religions in Jamaica. Kumina communities are small family based communities or nations. Some nations include聽Mondongo,聽Moyenge,聽Machunde,聽Kongo,聽Igbo, and聽Yoruba. People from Kumina families are given the title聽Bongo. Marrying into a Bongo family is one avenue to become a part of a Kumina nation; special initiation is the other avenue. Kumina nations are led by a "King" and "Queen".聽Imogene "Queenie" Kennedy聽AKA Queenie III (c1920-1998) was a well-known Kumina Queen in the 20th century, born in St Thomas in the late 1920s she later moved to Kingston and then Waterloo, St Catherine.

The use of cannabis or ganja in Kumina may have been an influence on the adoption of this plant as a聽sacrament聽in聽Rastafari, a religion that developed in Jamaica during the 1930s.

Knuckles does what he does best and fights his way through to take the Emerald back. Knuckles and Donkey Kong began to fight leading to the begging to those two becoming Frendnemies.
Hope you like it ~ 馃挅馃馃

Headcanon about Lanky? (He's my absolute fab 馃グ)
Hiiii sorry it's taken what seems like a mcfreaking year to answer this! Here, have a few:
The general idea for most fans I've seen with him is that he was cast out of the Orangu-tan gang (or Utan Island, in some cases; I like the latter personally) for essentially being a silly little guy and not quite fitting in with the rest of the group. There's a bit more to it for me, in that I think Lanky was vocally opposed to some of the thought processes others in his village were voicing and trying to put into action, and so he was essentially exiled from the island. He wound up on Kongo Bongo and befriended the younger members of the DK crew between the events of DKC3 and DK64, which is what ultimately got him tied up in the events of the latter.
As a result of his origins, he understands why the others start out wary of him. It would be a lie to say it bothers him, but he doesn't let it show and would rather use that energy to gain their trust than mull it over. His openness about himself is what tends to earn it.
Lanky does not consider himself a fighter unless absolutely necessary, and would much rather spend his time entertaining others and making them laugh.
I'm not quite sure if the wording on this will make sense, but the Kong he would consider himself to be on "besties" level with the most is Chunky, who would agree.
Lanky quite likes oranges. He isn't sure how it keeps happening, but his enjoyment of them is to the extent he sometimes finds stray peels hiding in his fur.

What are some of your favourite parts/moments about your version of DK family? 馃馃Η馃悞馃惖
My pal get ready for one of the best moments of my version of the DK Family you will get to know.
Two members of the DK Family, Donkey Kong SR/Cranky Kong and Donkey Kong Junior got into a rocky start were captured by the corrupted circus owner and taken them prisoner and left them abused *Mostly Cranky*. Chaos ensued when the DK Sr escaped and wreaked havoc in New Donk City until confronted by the enigmatic "Mario Sr/Jumpman." Once the Both Sr and Jr were returned home, they were able to live in peace until the聽Kremling Empire settled on the island across Kongo Bongo Island called, Kremling Island.
Knowing his Grandson Donkey Kong the third will be next in line for the throne, he was distend to put him into amount of training to make sure he and his Allie鈥檚 can be the best Clan they could be until he was ready. had a huge grudge aganst Mario Jr because it sets a reminder about his foe Mario Sr and along with Jr's Brother and Sister. Even though they helped him out along with other Kongs sometimes but that didn't make a point.
The Kong Family struggled from tragic events were both Scar Kong and DK Jr disappearing and Wrinkly dying after the "DKC3 arc" Making Cranky's mental state worse than usually. That is why he helped raised his gran and great grankids to be heroes, taught them so hard to not make the same mistakes as he did.
When DK III and Diddy Kong has first single handedly defeated The Kremling Empire at the "DKC1 arc" The DK Clan grew as they contunued over coming threats together as well as that. Even though foes like The Koopa and Kremling Empire *Mostly* kept coming back to invad. The Kong Family will stick together and always be a strong family.
Mario Jr along with DK III might plan to bring Mario Sr and Cranky on good trems one day.

I mentioned a headcanon a while back about how each village on Kongo Bongo/in the Jungle Kingdom had a council of elders that served as a local form of government or lords of the land. While I don't necessarily have a thought-out plan for the one in Kong Village in present day, since I do a lot of thought-processing for the island when Cranky and Wrinkly were younger, I do have something of a plan for the council of elders of that era.
Behold, the then-current elders of Kong Village during Cranky's prime. Better known as the fruit juice trio, since their main clothing colors invoke those colors.
There's some more info beneath the cut. :)
-Gahrm
Second oldest of the elders
Has Kindly Old Grandpa Energy; local village grandpa because of it
Really only harsh with the king and those who cause disturbances in the village
Makes a mean batch of cookies
Big fan of theater
-Aiko
Oldest of the elders
Also the second oldest sister of Cranky's grandfather, the king before the previous one
Butts heads with the king more often than any of the other elders, even the ones from different villages
The main target of the pranks pulled by the king's sons
Generally not well liked by the village as a whole
-Mischa
Youngest of the elders
The only elder of the village who owns the king's full respect
Always ensures all the village children are keeping out of trouble by providing safer alternatives and help where he can
A kindly old man only outmatched by Gahrm
Tries to see things from everyone's point of view

"Well it's good to know that you were able to find it. After what you have all done for me, I know at least the Crystal Coconut is in good hands. Maybe it's a sign that our paths were meant to cross. After all, I don't know a whole lot about the Kongo Bongo island. With your help I can reconnect with the land, and grow my magic." Andy said with a hopeful smile.
"I just...don't know how I can do that. I mean, it has been a really long time since my family had to flee the island. And no one in my family really remembers how Shamus got his magic powers."
A Squirrel's Protector [Closed RP with @smashingveteransandnewcomers ]
After weeks of sailing, the squirrel finally had the island in sight. A stroke of luck for her because her rations were now running low. Also she had been battered and bruised after getting hit by a major storm a couple days ago. Despite her weakened state, she knew she had to make it to Kong Island or she'd end up in a worse state.
The only reason she would have even considered taking this journey, was because years ago her ancestors lived either on or near the island. Since the days of her Great-Great-Great Grandfather, Shamus the Seer. Legend says that her ancestor created the powerful Crystal Coconut to help people. But this creation soon caught the attention of Kremling pirates. Knowing the danger he and his family would be in, he used the last of his magic to teleport them far, far away from Kong Island.
But as their home was being attacked, he dropped the Crystal Coconut without realizing and closed the gateway just as the pirates broke in. And now Andy was going back to claim what her family had created. Though her potions were powerful, her magic was still fairly weak compared to Shamus' magic. Her father told her that once she reconnected with their homeland, her magic would grow stronger and she would be the next Seer.
At long last, she finally arrived on the sandy shores of Kong Island. But once she climbed out, she collapsed to the ground and had to drag herself into the forest just a few feet away. Once she had hidden herself as best as she could, she passed out from exhaustion.
