Per Pato, "From "Never Give In" to"Life Is A Miracle" my main goal has always been to spread Truth, Beauty & Goodness through reggae music. My life has been an evolutionary adventure of many ups and downs, but through it all I have never lost focus of my purpose. I have been blessed with the gift of Revelation, seen and been a part of many miracles, but nothing compares to the beautiful personalities I"ve met along the way."
