The episode "Let Babylon Burn" presents a compelling critique of the rise of AI in the music industry, particularly within the reggae genre that has long been a bastion of human storytelling and cultural expression. Henry K and Sia engage listeners by illustrating the contrast between the soulful, lived experiences of reggae artists and the algorithmically generated music. The episode unpacks the implications of such technology as Henry reflects on the historical journey of reggae, celebrating its origins while lamenting the potential loss of its authenticity in the face of algorithmic creations. Sia contributes her insights on the cultural significance of reggae and its representation of Jamaican identity. Ultimately, the hosts call for a renewed commitment to support real artists who carry the weight of their experiences in their music, emphasizing that while technology can simulate sound, it cannot convey the essence of the human condition.Produced by Henry K in association with Voice Boxx Studios Kingston, JamaicaROOTSLAND NATION Reggae Music, Podcast & MerchandiseLegends of Reggae | FacebookPetition to re-open the Peter Tosh murder case https://chng.it/29TPQ9FWZs

d'bi.young anitafrika knows that it takes a lot of nurturing and mentorship to become an artist of any kind. They credit their mom, the pioneering dub poet Anita Stewart, with inspiring their passion for storytelling. Now, d'bi is celebrating a major milestone as a playwright, performer and director. Their “Sankofa Trilogy” is in its 20th year. The three solo plays of the trilogy follow three generations of Jamaican women from their experiences of growing up to motherhood. Ahead of the anniversary stagings of the plays, d'bi is doing a little experiment — they're putting on the plays as multi-cast productions to test out new ways to tell these stories. d'bi sits down with guest host Garvia Bailey to talk about 20 years of “The Sankofa Trilogy,” getting their start in theatre in “Da Kink in My Hair,” and how they bring Black stories to the Canadian stage.

In this true, blue interview with Lucas Bols Co. Master Distiller Monique ten Kortenaar (@distillermo), some of the topics we discuss include: The history of the Curaçao liqueur category, how it differs in production and flavor to similar products like Triple Sec, and how the color blue first entered the picture about 100 years ago. How Bols Blue 1575 separates itself from non-premium Blue Curaçaos by incorporating signature botanicals and fruity Jamaican rum into its production and blending process. The role that bartenders, sensory panels, and distillery guests played in the development of this and other products that Bols brings to market. We also take the time to have a very open conversation about the nature of “additives” in the spirits world. Given the striking hue and excellent stability of the Blue 1575, it should be no surprise that Bols uses a food grade dye. But there's a lot that goes into the R&D and testing process for such an important component of the product, especially in the EU, where food standards are notoriously stringent. Along the way, we plan out an epic day-long food and culture tour to experience the best and most interesting cuisine and drink that Amsterdam has to offer, learn why Monique's perfumer Grandfather was known as “The White Giant,” reveal which Bols product is criminally underappreciated by bartenders and consumers, and much, much more.

Send us a text message and tell us your thoughts.What drives someone to pick up a camera and document untold Caribbean history with no formal training? For Richard Vaughn, it was a simple realization: the political stories that shaped the modern Caribbean were either missing from film archives or told through a heavily biased lens. Vaughn takes us on his remarkable journey from curious Jamaican-American to award-winning documentary filmmaker. With us, he describes what would become "The Love Trilogy" – three powerful documentaries examining pivotal Caribbean political figures: Michael Manley of Jamaica, the Grenada Revolution, and Cheddi Jagan of Guyana. The trilogy's name emerged organically from Manley's own words about his political movement: "The word is love."The conversation weaves together reflections on Caribbean self-determination, the connection between political movements and cultural expressions like reggae music, and practical advice for aspiring documentarians. Vaughn's simple guidance resonates beyond filmmaking: identify what needs preserving in your community's history, start with whatever resources you have, and persist despite obstacles. Listen now to discover how documentary film serves as both historical preservation and a tool for balanced understanding of the Caribbean's complex political landscape. What stories in your community deserve similar documentation?Richard Vaughan born in New York to Jamaican immigrants in 1980. Driven by a passion for his culture and determination to educate and tell stores that history often forgets. Winner of the Madrid International Filmmaker Festival 2017 for Best Editing of a Documentary and the 2017 Van Gogh Award: Prodigy Auteur at the 2017 Amsterdam Film Festival for his second documentary Rolling Along: An Inline Movement. Previous credits include The Word is Love: Jamaica's Michael Manley (2012), Rolling Along: An Inline Movement (2017), Four Years of Love: The Grenada Revolution (2021), The Price of Love: Cheddi Jagan (2024).

He discusses the challenges and potential of basketball in Jamaica, emphasizing the need for infrastructure, funding, and community support. This conversation highlights the growing interest from NBA players of Jamaican descent and the importance of building a sustainable basketball program that honors Jamaican culture and athleticism.BaddestChaplain's Newsletter is a reader-supported publication.

Send us a textWhat happens when your language becomes a battleground for identity, education, and cultural sovereignty? When Oneil Madden, a Jamaican linguist who speaks five languages, joined me for this conversation, we uncovered the profound connections between language, heritage, and self-perception that shape the Caribbean experience both at home and abroad.Oneil shares his journey to becoming a lecturer at the University of Technology, where his passion for language education has fueled groundbreaking research. The revelation that really struck me was his experience of being told by a French supervisor that he was bilingual—something he hadn't fully internalized until his twenties despite growing up speaking both Jamaican Creole and English. This moment mirrors so many of our experiences as Caribbean people, where our native language is often dismissed as merely "bad English" rather than recognized as the sophisticated linguistic system it truly is.We dive deep into the challenges facing Jamaican Creole today—from standardization efforts by the Jamaican Language Unit to the fascinating paradox that while most Jamaicans speak Patois fluently, many struggle to read it in its codified form. The translation of the New Testament into Jamaican Creole serves as a powerful example of both the progress made and the distance still to travel. As artificial intelligence increasingly enters the language landscape, we confront complicated questions about who "owns" Jamaican Patois. Is it something to gatekeep, or should we celebrate its growing global influence? .Language shapes how we see ourselves and how the world sees us. If you've ever felt your accent was a weakness rather than a strength, or if you're curious about the future of Caribbean languages in a digital age, this conversation will resonate deeply. Resources Mentioned:Jamaican Language Unit at UWI MonaJamaican New Testament (via Bible app)UN Decade of Indigenous Languages (2022–2032)BBC article on Patois in Toronto Subscribe to the Newsletter Support How to Support Carry On Friends Donate: If you believe in our mission and want to help amplify Caribbean voices, consider making a donation.

Travel transforms us in ways we rarely anticipate. When we step outside our comfort zones, something remarkable happens – not just philosophically, but neurologically. The brain forms new pathways, rewiring itself in real-time as we navigate unfamiliar territory.My journey with travel's healing power began unexpectedly in 1996 when I traveled to Jamaica just eight weeks after losing my mother to breast cancer. We had been extraordinarily close – best friends, creative confidants – and her two-year battle had consumed my life. Though the timing seemed questionable, this trip provided precisely what my grieving process needed most: space.Back home, I was surrounded by familiar places and people that held countless memories of my mother. These comforts, while necessary, made it nearly impossible to process my grief fully or envision life without her. Jamaica's unfamiliar environment – driving on the opposite side of the road, witnessing different living conditions, experiencing vibrant local culture – forced my brain into new patterns. During an evening service at the dance conference where I was teaching, everything broke open. Kneeling on a hard linoleum floor thousands of miles from home, I finally released the anger and disappointment I'd been harboring. I emptied myself completely and felt a divine reassurance that joy would return to my life.The science explains why: new experiences activate the brain's reward system, boosting dopamine – the motivation chemical depleted during depression. The Jamaican sunshine certainly helped! Additionally, navigating new challenges activated my prefrontal cortex, helping me consider future possibilities I'd previously been unable to envision. When I returned home, though grief didn't disappear, something had fundamentally shifted. I had a renewed sense of purpose and clarity about moving forward while carrying my mother's memory.This experience shaped my understanding of travel's healing potential – something I now help others discover through intentional travel coaching. Whether you're navigating grief, transition, or seeking transformation, travel offers unique tools for healing unavailable in familiar environments.

In this powerful and necessary episode of Soulfood and Lemonade, we respond to ignorance with truth. When someone told a Jamaican to “go back to your country,” they likely didn't realize how deeply Jamaica has contributed to the very fabric of America. From military service and music to public service, healthcare, and civil rights, Jamaicans have earned their place—not as visitors, but as vital threads in the American story. This episode is both a reminder and a celebration: we belong here.

This episode of The Late Night Restaurant Show is pure gold for anyone in foodservice. Jay, Dom, and Beck welcome Alton Watts, from Sysco Food Services, and the conversation swings from hilarious stories to hard‑earned lessons. Alton talks about growing up as the youngest of ten in Jamaica, learning to cook at his mother's side, and eventually moving to Canada.

In this episode of Visual Intonation, we sit down with director and cultural provocateur Giselle Bailey, a Jamaican-American filmmaker whose boundary-pushing work blends documentary, narrative, and contemporary art. Giselle's artistry isn't just about creating films—it's about sparking cultural transformation. Her lens explores the power of Black imagination, reshaping narratives and championing revolutionary perspectives. From directing the HBO documentary The Legend of the Underground to her ongoing project Seen & Heard—an in-depth exploration of Black creatives in television, executive produced by Issa Rae—Giselle is on the front lines of reshaping how Black stories are told on screen. Giselle's portfolio of impactful works includes the Hulu docuseries Hair Tales and Ladies First, as well as her co-creation of the video installation Shadow Work. She uses her craft to disturb dominant histories and elevate the complexity of Black life, continuously challenging mainstream norms and dismantling binaries. Through her work, she seeks to amplify the voices of underrepresented communities, creating space for nuanced, authentic depictions of Black identity and culture. The conversation dives into the unique ways she disrupts pop culture with visual storytelling that both engages and challenges. In this episode, we explore the heart of Giselle's artistic mission—one rooted in cultural liberation. Reflecting on her own experiences as a Jamaican immigrant raised across multiple nations, she shares how her family's leadership in the Jamaican Rastafari movement shaped her view on revolution and cultural transformation. Through her lens, she pushes for a world where the Black diaspora can express their stories freely, without restriction. For Giselle, revolution is not just a theme in her work—it's a guiding principle. As the conversation unfolds, Giselle also delves into what still needs to change for Black representation in television. From fighting for creative ownership to cultivating equitable spaces for financing, Giselle underscores the importance of Black creators not just participating in the industry, but owning and shaping it. Tune in to this inspiring and thought-provoking discussion, where art meets activism, and where every story told is another step toward cultural liberation. Giselle Bailey's Website: http://gisellebailey.com/Giselle Bailey's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/giselle.bailey/?hl=enGiselle Bailey's IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm4054614/Support the showVisual Intonation Website: https://www.visualintonations.com/Visual Intonation Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/visualintonation/Vante Gregory's Website: vantegregory.comVante Gregory's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/directedbyvante/ To support me on Patreon (thank you): patreon.com/visualintonations Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@visualintonation Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@directedbyvante

This mix dives deep into the crucial transition period of Jamaican music during the early 1980s—those rich, rugged years when the roots reggae era evolved into the raw pulse of early dancehall, also known as rub-a-dub. The 17 tracks featured here capture the stripped-down riddims, streetwise vocals, and echo-laden dub textures that defined this moment in time. These were the years when roots consciousness met sound system swagger, and the groove got heavier, slower, and more bass-focused. As political tensions rose in Jamaica and the optimism of the ‘70s roots began to fade, artists and producers responded with music that reflected reality—gritty, direct, and dance-ready. About This Era (1979–1985): The Roots–Dancehall Crossover Why It Happened After nearly a decade of deeply spiritual and political roots reggae, a younger generation pushed for change. They craved music that could still carry a message but move the dancefloor and reflect everyday life. The result: rub-a-dub and early dancehall, a style with emphasis on drum and bass, minimal overdubs, and toasting (a rhythmic, talk-over vocal style) alongside melodic singing. Who Shaped the Sound Sly & Robbie (The Rhythm Twins): Their Taxi label and riddims drove innovation—combining militant basslines with minimal, hard-hitting drum grooves. Henry “Junjo” Lawes: A towering figure of this time, producing massive hits for artists like Yellowman, Don Carlos, Michael Prophet, and more—often backed by the mighty Roots Radics band. Roots Radics: The go-to session band for rub-a-dub—slow tempos, dubbed-out textures, and basslines that could anchor any vocal. Joe Gibbs, Channel One, Jammy's, Techniques, and Volcano were the key studios and labels shaping the sound.
