“What made me sign on is just how it was pitched: the fastest people in the world. There's not many leagues that sign you on as contracted racers. That's new. And I like to be a part of change.” Grand Slam Track has confirmed that Kingston, Jamaica will be one of four cities that will play host to the action in the professional track league's inaugural season. In 2025, the first slam will be held at the national stadium at Independence Park on April 4th, 5th and 6th. Back in June when the league was first announced, Los Angeles was one of the four cities that was announced, but Kingston is the first city confirmed with dates. This is the same stadium that hosts the Racers Grand Prix and the same stadium that is packed for five days when it hosts the ISSA/Grace Kennedy Boys and Girls Championships in March. Grand Slam Track's events will take place over three days with athletes racing twice. Athletes will receive points for their finishing position in each race and then the athlete with the highest points total after both events will win the slam and the $100,000 grand prize. So what does this mean for the league? Grand Slam Track will have a host city where the Diamond League has not tapped into with one of the most devout track and field fan populations in the world. The fandom around the sprints is a national tradition from the high school to the Olympic level and the league has already invested in Jamaican talent with three Jamaican racers in Roshawn Clark, who will contest the 400m and 400m hurdles; Ackera Nugent, who will run the 100m and 100m hurdles; and Rushell Clayton, who will run the 400m and 400m hurdles. So to get excited about the league and the first slam in Jamaica, we caught up with two-time world championship medalist Rushell Clayton at the Grand Slam Track Racer Summit in Los Angeles.

Die Sendung steht natürlich im Zeichen von Reggae und Bob Marley, aber wir bieten viel mehr. Jasmin Wilson vom gemeinnützigen Verein Kingston Creative führt uns auf einer Water Lane Tour entlang von beeindruckenden Wandmalereien, die die Geschichte Jamaikas darstellen. Wir lernen dabei viel über verschiedene Stilrichtungen der Musik wie zum Beispiel Ska. Und natürlich geht es um die Ikone dieser Insel, dessen "One Love" eine Hymne geworden ist. Eine neue Heimat für die Kreativen und für die Künstler dieser Stadt zeigt uns Teische Shirley, die ebenfalls für Kingston Creative arbeitet. Dabei besuchen wir sie in ihrem Podcast-Studio. Unterwegs erzählt uns Michael aus Kingston von seiner Jugend in dieser Stadt auf der Südost-Seite der Insel und gibt Tipps für das Nightlife of Jamaica. Im völligen Kontrast dazu erleben wir den Park vor dem Devone House. Durch das Kulturerbe führt uns Rikawla Wassel und zeigt damit, wie das Luxusleben am Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts aussah. Denn wir sind am Anwesen von George Stiebel, der Jamaikas erster schwarzer Millionär war. Die Sendung garnieren wir mit dem Sound of Jamaica, mit den Stimmen dieser Insel in der Karibik. Dazu gehört natürlich auch der Song von Kingston Town von UB 40. Viel Spaß!

We had the pleasure of interviewing Brooke Annibale over Zoom video.Montego Bay, Jamaica raised vocalist, songwriter and producer Hezron Clarke released his album, M.O.A.M. (Man on a Mission), via Tad's Record (Ernie Ranglin, Tanya Stephens). Recorded in Reggae's birthplace, Kingston Jamaica, M.O.A.M. features some of Jamaica's greatest musicians including Dean Fraser (saxophone), Kirk “Kirkle Dove” Bennett (drums), Donald “Danny Bassie” Dennis (bass), Mitchum Khan (guitar), Carol “Bowie” McLaughlin (keyboards) and Robbie Lyn (keyboards). On a lyrical front, the album embodies feel-good vibes with motivational and inspirational concepts that encourage patience and resilience. With inspiration from classic soul artists such as Luther Vandross, Otis Redding and Sam Cooke, to 90's favorites KC and Jojo and Dave Hollister to iconic Jamaican singers Beres Hammond and Dennis Brown, Hezron has embodied his own classic vocal and musical style while taking notes from some of the greats. Hezron released his debut album The Life I Live(d) on Tad's Record in 2015. His return to the label with M.O.A.M. unites two established Jamaican brands, each committed to proving that quality reggae with the potential for widespread global appeal is still being made in the music's birthplace. Although many younger Jamaican artists embrace trap and hip-hop over indigenous reggae and dancehall, a stark contrast to the proliferation of young American reggae bands, especially in California, Tad's Record founder Tad Dawkins is determined to see Jamaican reggae restored to prominence internationally. It's an objective he firmly believes will be fulfilled with the release of M.O.A.M. We want to hear from you!

Tarotkortleken "Waite Smith", även känd som Rider Waite (jag förklarar i det här avsnittet varför den inte ska kallas för “rider waite”!!) har sålts i över 100 miljoner kopior, motiven finns på t-shirts, kepsar och tatuerade på folks kroppar. Alla tusentals kortlekar som finns idag utgår från dess symbolik. Kortleken är kort sagt världskänd, det är dock inte kvinnan bakom korten. Waite Smith målades av konstnären Pamela Colman Smith, även känd som "Pixie". Hon skapade kortleken tillsammans med mystikern Arthur Edward Waite men hennes namn har i många år utelämnats ur både kortens namn och historien om dem.På senare år har intresset för vem Pamela var ökat och jag vill med detta avsnitt dela historien om henne med er. Pamela Colman Smith var hyllad illustratör, konstnär och kostymör och hon levde ett spännande liv i Kingston Jamaica, New York och London. Hon var omtalat medial och målade till musik. Hon var också initierad i det ockulta sällskapet The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn där hon träffade Waite och skapade tarotkortleken.Det blir ett avsnitt om tarot, konst, symbolism, London, en minihäst som heter Grok, älvor, trenddrinken nr 1 bland ockultister mmOm Häxtimmens sommarspecialHäxbränningar, trolldomsanklagelser och utanförskap. Häxan har genom historien varit utskälld och jagad. Idag ser vi en ockult trend, häxan har blivit en symbol för styrka, kraft, motstånd, både privatpersoner och kommersiella förteg intresserar sig för tarotkort, astrologi och magi. Hur hamnade vi här? För ett sekel sedan innebar förutsägelser och trolldom fängelsestraff och böter. I Häxtimmens sommarspecial lyfter Ebba några av de kvinnor som varit pionjärer inom den ockulta världen och som på sikt gjort det möjligt för oss att vara så fria i vår andlighet som vi är idag.

DJ Richie R.A.S. alongside DJ Lank (Code Red Sound) live audio from Janga's Soundbar in Kingston Jamaica, Friday March 11, 2022
Welcome to the Football Outside the Box Podcast! What the hell is this podcast? - The Football Outside The Box podcast is hosted by a Manchester United supporter Wonseok Lim and an Arsenal fanatic, Noah Seaga, who are above all avid football fans. As they discuss football from a broadened perspective, introducing new and unorthodox ideas, they explore the future of football and its advancement opportunities. Who are these guys anyway? - Noah Seaga, from Kingston Jamaica, has grown up watching football his whole life with a special affection towards Arsenal F.C. He became an Arsenal fan through the influence of family members also being Arsenal fans but also his idolization for Thierry Henry. “I remember when I played FIFA for the first time and I saw Arsenal as the first team that showed up as an option and I thought ‘this is my team'”. - Wonseok Lim, originally from South Korea, grew up idolizing Park Ji-Sung of Manchester United, in a way kids nowadays grow up idolizing Heung-Min Son of Tottenham Hotspur. Naturally, watching every Man United game, he developed a love for the club itself. Even after Park's departure from the club in 2012 he found himself supporting the team, and that's when he realized that he will forever be a Red Devil. Ok, So how do they know each other? - Wonseok and Noah eventually met each other at a boarding school in the United States where they realized their shared passion for football and their commonalities in their ways of thinking outside the box. Since then, they have always discussed football from all angles whether it be the mainstream topics that are discussed in traditional and modern day media but also topics that don't typically get discussed. - "A Humble Resumé, with a lot to say” What are they trying to get out of this? - Today, the two have come together with a goal to create a safe space for all sorts of thought-provoking and engaging football discussion as they look at all possible avenues and break down ideas and suggestions of all kinds so that we can make the football world better. - What if football had unlimited subs? What if football had an orange card, between yellow and red cards? These are the types of discussions they intend on sparking up while analyzing all of the possible outcomes with its pros and cons. - Our discussions might not always necessarily come to a final conclusion, rather, our aim is to open the minds of football fans by bringing these discussions into focus. Join the group to discuss and preview the weekend's PL actions, as well as the advancement topics to improve the game of football!

A super eventful 8th round of CONCACAF World Cup qualifiers give us a new leader at the top of the table to finish out 2021 as Canada bests Mexico 2-1 on a frigid night in Edmonton to get 16 points. The game had drama from the 1st minute until the 95th minute and so much happening in-between too. Elsewhere, the United States Men's National team only manage a draw at The Office in Kingston Jamaica as once again some Michail Antonio magic helps the Reggae Boyz pick up another point, as the USA suffers yet another lackluster showing away from home. Considering the US have more away games left than home games, is there a way to solve this problem? Sean Garmer and Erik Watkins go through the talking points and performances from both of the big games on the night. Plus, a customary trip around CONCACAF sees things get even tighter at the top and another squad creates a small window of distance from the other squads at the bottom. There's plenty to talk about as it is past the halfway point in CONCACAF World Cup Qualifying.

Visit our website https://psycho-killer.co for exclusive videos, photos, articles, and transcripts.Two musicians; two murders, separated by hundreds of miles. On the face of it, ex-Beatle John Lennon and Reggae star Peter Tosh were gunned down in very different circumstances. Lennon was shot by an obsessed fan; Tosh a victim of 1980s Jamaican gun culture. On closer examination, however, their deaths have more in common than first meets the eye, not least because they were both peace-loving men who wanted mankind to live in harmony. Jacques Morrell and Simon Ford unpack the archives and their vinyl collections in this investigation.Featuring the voices of C.C. Anderson, Tim Bryn Smith and Denroy Shakespeare.The Six O'clock Knock is a Psycho Killer production.Transcript[Music] This podcast contains descriptions of death and violence that some listeners may find upsetting. Hello and welcome to the Six O'clock Knock the true crime podcast that takes a fresh look at murder I'm Simon Ford a journalist and broadcaster with 20 odd years in the business and I'm Jacques Morrell 30 years of British police officer and detective I spent many an hour on the press benches of various courts reporting on the kind of crimes that Jacques spent his career detecting now the English legal system has influenced many others around the world our system of common law or case law originated in the practices of the courts of the English kings following the Norman conquest in 1066 and to be clear Scotland wasn't conquered by the Normans which is why the Scottish legal system is different from the one in England and wales absolutely and comparisons as the saying goes are odious now the British empire imposed that English legal system on its far-flung colonies many of which retained the common law system today these systems give great weight to judicial precedent today of course there's no British empire but one third of the world's population lives in common law jurisdictions including Jamaica and that other former colony the united states of America [Music] Jamaica declared its independence from Britain in 1962 but remained a member of the commonwealth and it's to Jamaica that we are heading today then we'll look at a second case also from over the Atlantic both cases are very different but both involve the murder of prominent musical artists and both involve firearms our main focus is that of the murder of Winston Hubert McIntosh better known as Peter Tosh Jamaican reggae artist [Music] Peter Tosh was the baritone who left Bob Marley and the Wailers went solo and worked with the Rolling Stones among others the one who learned how to ride a unicycle and rode onto the stage on it that's him his other claim to fame he was shot and killed in 1987. We'll compare his murder to the fatal shooting of John Winston Lennon British musician founder member of the Beatles shot and killed seven years earlier in 1980. I suppose everyone remembers where they were when a celebrity gets murdered I'll be honest though Peter Tosh was less well known in our household but John Lennon now his murder took place on the evening of Monday the 8th of December 1980 in New York five hours behind London time so I woke up to the news on Tuesday the ninth now my dad had bought a colour tv in time for Christmas and John Lennon's murder was one of the first stories I saw in colour on the tv news John Lennon is dead shot several times by a young American as he was going into his home in New York the former Beatle who was 40 was returning home from a recording studio with his wife Yoko Ono when he was murdered it took a few days for the enormity of what had happened to sink in the significance of the talent that had been lost but there was a school assembly I remember where John Lennon's music was played in tribute and even some of the teachers were moved to tears it was one of those moments that made me want to record significant events and I guess set me on the path to becoming a journalist now I know very little about Peter Tosh but you're a fan aren't you Jacques tell me something about the man and his music well from what I know his childhood was one of survival he was abandoned by his parents and moved around between relatives now this was rural Jamaica and when his aunt died he moved to trench town in Kingston aged about 15. his introduction to music was amazing though he used to sit and watch a man playing guitar in the street now this man only played the one tune but Tosh was mesmerized after seeing him many times Tosh picked up the guitar and played the song back to the man the man asked him who taught him to play guitar and Tosh replied you have he'd learned by watching Tosh then learned some singing skills from a guy who gave free music lessons to young people and it was there he met Bob Marley and Bunny Wailer who were doing the same thing and as they say the rest is history that's fascinating and do you recall where you were when the news of these deaths was reported yes and no I was working full-time in 1987 and while I have some Peter Tosh records at home I don't remember where I was when news of his death broke I guess as a young cop working shifts I was just too busy to follow the news I can remember clearly when the news of Lennon's death happened the difference is that I was 17 years old in 1980 and there's something about teenage memories that seem stronger isn't there that's very true yeah I'd agree with that my memory of the first colour tv and the teachers in tears that kind of thing it's just frozen there somehow that moment crystallized and when I think about it it's as though I'm back in my tiny box of a bedroom it's just big enough for a single bed wardrobe a chair and a bedside cabinet I had a radio alarm clock I can picture it now it had an illuminated red digital display classic seventies I was listening to the morning show on radio one the DJ I think was Mike Reed and I could hear something different in his voice he was emotional and struggling for words I knew then how much of a big deal it was as the whole show was a news item with a few John Lennon songs for those people who do not know and it may have just joined us John Lennon died earlier today as the result of what seems to be one of those idiotic and pointless attacks by someone who probably didn't even know him he was shot dead in New York about four o'clock GMT yes I remember now we had the BBC news on in the kitchen and John Lennon was shot four times in the back his killer Mark David Chapman waited for the police to arrive and immediately admitted what he'd done well Peter Tosh was killed on the 11th of September 1987. he was shot during a robbery at his home in Kingston Jamaica his killers though didn't hang around for the police to arrive they were arrested later one man was convicted of the crime Dennis Lobben although he still maintains his innocence now these murders were seven years apart and happened in very different circumstances the only connection being both were musicians and both were shot in cold blood and both men shared the same full name of Winston don't forget yes that's an interesting coincidence isn't it I wonder if it's significant the motive for their killings is very different while their respective killers are still in jail what would have happened to them if their victims had not been famous artists almost certainly released I guess what we also want to do is to expand on the detail and then consider whether there's a similarity in the mindset of the killers the killers of both Peter Tosh and John Lennon I guess it's hard for us in the UK to appreciate the place that guns have in society in both the USA and Jamaica but the fact remains that nearly 40 years after the murders of John Lennon and Peter Tosh firearms are disproportionately used in killings in both countries the united states relationship with guns and gun control is well documented and according to a survey in 2017 Jamaica is one of the most armed countries per head of population in the world it seems so alien to us in the UK we have some of the strictest firearms controls in the world although to an extent some of that gun culture has spread over here Jamaican law allows firearm ownershipRead more:

Born in Kingston Jamaica and raised in the Carribbean section of Brooklyn New York, Sim Campbell has poured all of his life's experiences into a career as an author and rapper. His book "The Factor: When Death Before Dishonor is Tested" is a gritty, realistic account of an explosive drug war reminiscent of "New Jack City", "Kings of New York" and "Boyz in the Hood". Sim's cinematic style and skills with dialogue give this book a page turning easiness, and many of the scenes involving the lead character Too-Real and the love of his life Vanessa are especially moving. In addition to the book, we also dive into Sim's music with a couple tracks Sissi and I really liked, "Who's To Blame" and "Waste My Time". Describing himself as an old school rapper, Sim's eight track "Pops Dedication" released earlier this year demonstrated a style that fuses reggae, pop melodies and rap with gritty lyrics. We really enjoyed our time with Sim!
