GRENADA SPICEMAS 2024 - PART 2: Discovering Jab Jab
Jab Jab: raw, powerful, and deeply Grenadian. 🖤
I know this is well overdue, but I really wanted to get this right. I really hope I do Jab and Grenada even an ounce of justice. I LOVE this vlog, this episode feels so real, so authentic, almost like a documentary!
This episode is all about uncovering the heart of Spicemas through its most iconic tradition. With the words of a Grenadian friend, we dive into the meaning, history, and vibes that make Jab Jab a cultural cornerstone. From mud, oil, and drums to the stories behind it all, this vlog captures the essence of Jab Jab while sharing highlights from a first timer’s POV.
This episode is packed with insights and unfiltered moments:
00:00 - Intro
00:30 - Pre Jab Confessionals + Getting Ready
2:36 - How to Prepare for Jab, why baby oil?
4:45 - First oil up!
5:42 - "Jab Jab is not an establishment"
7:30 - "To be Grenadian, is to be a Jab"
8:35 - Time to play a mas!
9:21 - "You have all kinda Jab"
11:15 - In the mas, in the Jab
12:14 - Jab Thoughts with Tahira and Franco
14:05 - Ole Mas (Traditional Mas)
15:48 - "Are there any rules to Jab?"
18:06 - Time to scrub down.
What’s your favorite Jab Jab memory or moment? Tell me in the comments! 👇
Thank you again to Vibemas for this experience and to everyone who shared their energy with us.
Stay tuned for the finale, where we hit the ROAD for Monday Mas and Pretty Mas on Tuesday!
Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for all the vibes!
xx, Sim

This duffle bag was by far one of the most fun and rewarding bags, things for that matter, that i have made in a long long long time. Making it fro...
