i've been wondering this for a while that why do some rastas use "yesI"? What does the I in the end change? Is it the same as "yes" except with some rasta thing in the end?
:)

It means "yes, Neonate". The "I" is switched for "you" symbolizing that there is no difference between "I and I", only unity. There is another layer of symbolism as well, however; the number "I" appears at the end of Haile Sellasie (I) title, like Jr, Sr, etc. except for rasta, it is read as a personal pronoun, not a number. This symbolizes I and I connection to the holy "I", His Majesty.
