There have been some pretty discouraging reports on Jamaica in the news lately, regarding business taxes and the perception of corruption in the country. According to a recent article on Jamaica Gleaner.com, the 2008 Doing Business Report published by the World Bank, cites that most companies in Jamaica are paying more than half of their [...]

Ok, this is the last video for today (unless I find something else:)). Anyway, I can’t remember what magazine I was reading (or maybe I was watching TV) but I remember Jimmy Cozier saying that he was no longer on J Records and was going to go back to his roots (I didn’t even know [...]

I found this today while doing my normal “yawd research”. I’m not sure who it is that’s singing back-up, but she sounds great. In spite of it all, Beenie’s still putting in work, as is D’Angel, she’s featured on the remix of No One by Alicia Keys. As soon as I get wind of it, [...]

54 years ago today, the world welcomed one half of what would become one of the most influential reggae production teams ever, Sly & Robbie. Robert Shakespeare was born in Kingston, Jamaica on September 27, 1953. In the mid 70’s he began working with Lowell “Sly” Dunbar and together they rocked the landscape of reggae [...]

If you haven’t seen this video or heard the song, shame on you! It is even in rotation on VH1 Soul’s Island Soul, which is one of the few new videos they play. I really like this song and the video is nice and makes me wish I were in JA right now. You can [...]

Several weeks ago I was surfing the internet looking for Jamaican magazines when I stumbled upon (what I believe is the now defunct) First Magazine. I initially had two reactions: #1 I missed out what looked like a beautiful and culturally informative magazine and #2 The photography was breathtaking. I also got excited because this [...]

This has been floating around the internet, so I thought you guys might like to hear it:

I’m excited today, there is a ton of hot music dropping! A couple of weeks ago, it was all about the 50 cent and Kanye face off, well for the rest of us who prefer something on a lighter lyrical note, today is the day. Just some of the albums dropping today include, Keyshia [...]

My husband hated when I used to sing this song (I mean what man does like it?),but I couldn’t help it, it was so catchy and Blacker in the background combined with Macka’s pleas just cracked me up. Well, for those who loved the song, enter now… what is being deemed the first “dancehall novel”, [...]
