Meaning
To fully enjoy — the Rastafari reshaping of 'enjoy'. Reasoning that 'enjoy' opens with a sound heard as the negative 'en', Rastafari remake the word to 'fulljoy', so that the joy named is whole and complete rather than diminished. To 'fulljoy' life, a meal, or the music is to take full, unclouded pleasure in it, and the word belongs to the wider Rastafari practice of bending language away from anything negative and toward the upful and life-affirming.
