Once a Slave, also called "Black Man's Inferiority Complex," is a song by the Ghanaian reggae band Project Monks. The song they made with Maulana came out in 2006, and since then, it has become one of their most famous songs.

The idea for this song comes from two well-known parts: a call to action and a word against slavery. The call to action is mostly heard on the opening scene, which has a call to arms that tells the black man to break the chains that have been holding him down since he was made.

The message of the song is to get the black man to accept his place as a slave in society and stop using his inferiority as a reason not to live up to his full potential. The track is driven by this message, which makes it a must-have for any young black guy who wants to become more independent and fully be able to dream big.

"Once a Slave" is a song that sets the tone for a powerful message that is meant to encourage black men to be proud of their culture and get over feeling like they are less than white people.
