- Greetings my loves,
In today’s video we sit down and talk to our friend who we met at a family owned farm called Earth Family Farm in Ochos Rios in Jamaica 🇯🇲 This is an up close interview of Jah Mikes, a chinese man raised in Jamaica , with rich history and culture in his lineage - he goes into the reality of what it was like growing up in Jamaica as a Chinese man . He also has a rich history working in the music industry and he goes into his experiences working as a music producer in the 1970s reggae era in Jamaica… I hope you enjoy this video and learned something new!

Jah Mike said it and I can confirm it --I never knew what racism was until I came to America as a 15yr old boy.
Me too. I came at 15yr old also and went to high school. I woke up fast about racism. New Jersey. Still a deal with it.
I can confirm that...I have experience any such thing in jamaica until living in America...the most hateful place on earth...if you know you know!!!
Me too
@@leighgg7239agree
I never have a clue that people could hate on each other till I came here and experience racism first hand
Who see the same vibration in him as a Bob Marley. Jamaica is a mystical place that bridge all races. We don’t think about race in Jamaica, we invite all to come back to humanity.
Hog wash!
Jamaica has the biggest problem with bleaching in the Caribbean.
You have a colorism problem which is a derivative of racism.
Facts
i was gonna say his voice kinda sounds like bob too
One people, one God, one love. #JamRockStyle
true... until politics comes in
Real Jamaican old school rasta talk.
Big up.
" Out of One People, comes Many people".
Your statement of “Out of one People come Many People “ should’ve been to begin with. We need to change, what we have been living with. “Out of Many one People”
@@jewallorvick233In all honesty, Jamaica motto doesn't apply anymore as most Chinese, Whites, Indian and Brown people have migrated especially in the 70s during the mass exodus. The motto was true when we had independence when the island was more diverse, at one time there was nuff White people in Saint Elizabeth, Manchester and Kingston/ St. Andrew, now very rarely unless u go to an uptown party.
So true, so true.
@@celticmulato2609u also have to remember there was huge influx of Chinese an Indian immigrants come to ja during early 80s and early 90s an also ja has 3rd most indo-jamaicans in d caribbean an d most Chinese jamaican in d caribbean dat sounds diverse to me
wow!...he sounds like Bob Marley..lol..I can listen to him talk all day...love his accent.
yes he was a blessing to meet and reason with 🤍✨
It's a Kingstonian accent, notably old school folks.
It's a Jamaican common accent.
This is a really nice Jamaican man. Calm and soft spoken, clean and decent..Earth people, I love that, also his chuckle.
God bless you mister 😊
He looks well, great skin..must be the weed and herbs.
No one can make you sad, happy yourself! wise words from the man himself.
I wish the world had more unique people like him❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😂❤😅😅😅😅😅
You stated that he is a Chinese man growing up in Jamaica. But he is actually a Jamaican man grow up in Jamaica. With Chinese heredity . I never described my self as an African/British girl growing up in Jamaica. I am a Jamaican girl that grow up in Jamaica. All of us that grow up or have family from this island are just blessed. None of of are original to the island.
Agree. The original people are the Arawak and Taino people. "Out of many one people" ❤
He has a Jamaican spirit
Thanks for putting it into perspective
😂😂😂 I am so proud of my culture chines Indian black white no matter what u are as long as u have a jamaican accent ur jamaican.
Are you British?
I love this man because of his humbleness and his ability to reason intelligently and being truthful and candidly.
Respect.
💯 real jamaican to BUMBOCLAAT out of many we are one ❤

Wait, let me go back guj listen for the river.
Word 🔥
What green landscape, oh, and that hammock is so pretty.

Great content. I wont be suprised if he is in his 70s. Like they say people who are more connected to nature have higher level of awareness and well being and have a better out look towards being satisfied with simple things in life.
💯
Jah know I would love to just sit and reason with this bredda !! Big up Mr chin
Happy 2 Link On Greetings Blessied ❤💛💚👍Jah Mike Great ls The Almighty Blessings Love An Mercy ..
Love this man love the way he talks and laughf real jamaican roots man down to earth and all.
Agreed, i never knew racism was until i went to the U.S, i grew up in Miami and made friends with loads from the Caribbean, Chinese Jamaicans as well as afro Jamaicans, Trinidadians Guyanese Haitians bagians etc. We always lived as one.thats the way it should be. Blessed.
Daaa izzzzzz. Usa great faaaa de
Are you kidding me? I remeember the uproar on the part of some Afro-Jamaicans when a Chinese young woman was crowned Miss Jamaica. The poor young lady had to say that although of Chinese race, she didn't know anything about China and ate only Jamaican food, a defence she should not have been forced to take. All people arw capable of discrimination. It depends on who has the upper hand.
@@bernadettefarquhar1453 i also remember when a dark skinned Jamaican was crowned miss Jamaica and there was a big uproar among many Jamaican of all ethnicity. Jamaicans want to be labeled as Jamaicans first and foremost, before being label according to their ethnicity. And that is what set us apart from all other countries with race problems.
@@bernadettefarquhar1453which Chinese Jamaican? Which year? Please do tell.
@@barrylloyd5864which dark skinned Jamaican woman was ostracized or criticized when she was crowned Miss Jamaica? Which year? Do tell.
Jah bless Jamaica! We love you 😍 from a brother in Iran 🇮🇷
We are a earth family..love that line.
Non-Jamaicans find it hard to understand why Jamaicans are not used to racism. Kids notice differences and will tease each other: too tall, too short, too black, too white, Chinese etc. So teasing a Chinese classmate was about perceived differences and not racism. That was usually fleeting as well. I bet as they knew him he became accepted in the group. Very very different situation from racism in US and UK for example.
Exact description of the Jamaican mind 😊
Well said!
When I first went to the States, is realized the difference with my 20 year career as a Marine I had one roommate from California who was racist to black people and he was Hispanic; that I found strange out of all my experiences that was the moment my blinders were moved. But, 23 years later I am still with my Japanese wife and she loves my Jamaican culture and drive.
The divide is along economic lines: classism, not racism. We don’t have that in Jamaica.
Classism is what is practiced in JA , but in the U S and European countries, Racism is what is practiced. Classism is the base from where Racism came,
My dream…to live life to the fullest - naturally and freely. Thanks for doing this interview and introducing us to this gentle and wise soul!
Big up RS, keep these uplifting stories coming. There are so many Jamaican born intellectual both on the island and abroad.
yes! give thanks for the love and support 🤍
Love jah mikes vibes am a black Jamaican with Chinese Jamaican in my family
Good to See my brethren Jah Mikes, looking good my brother. 👊🏾🙏🏾
I like this man, full of knowledge and has a higher sense of understanding. Ive learnt alot from him and this video.
Blessings from the uk..
Real authentic human being.❤a love
Love this !!!! Would listen to the brother all day,every day.
The Chinese first came to Jamaica in the 1850’s as indentured laborers after the abolition of slavery.
Yeah. Others came after.
educate the people, key word (came) to Jamaica. children born after these people came will be citizens of Jamaica. You can't go to China and say I'm Chinese. Why.... bcuz the Chinese won't aloud you to be called Chinese.
Hail Jah Mike. Living the simple life after the hustle n bustle of life.❤🎉😂
I’m in nursing….n I feel so proud telling co-staff that my country has a diverse nationality, because we have Chinese Jamaican, Caucasian Jamaican, Indian Jamaican, Lebanese Jamaicans etc that actually born their . The biggest question is always “do they speak the broken language?” and when I say yes, they are shocked, now most of em are more excited to visit Jamaica 😂❤❤❤ out of many one people 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
In England all the School kids from different nationalities speak Jamaican from the Midlands down to the South East & London 😂
I just love that Jamaicans from whatever heritage, speak with the same variant of English. In fact, a major ancestor of the Jamaican accent is the English spoken in County Cork and County Kerry, Ireland.
Amazing story, what a humble man, watching this is a joy to my soul.
A real joy to my soul too! Wow!
Would love to meet him! He's next level.
Interesting Jamican...Would be good to know more about his childhood & his schooling etc.
Enough regarding these jam Chinese.What’s their story may i ask.They were in colonial days horrible to the negro jamaicans.I did a factual research .Get lost the lot of you.
Good reasoning Mr Chin man Jamaican out of many one people 💯🇯🇲❤️❤️❤️
One people alone poor while the others rich.
@@patriciahercules6852do u think he's rich?

Good content he is true to himself i know of the half Chinese who were rejected i grew up in an area with five different Chinese families and there were a number of mixed ones 🔥❤️🇯🇲

Risingserpentian, You're the real jamaica Empress ,not the new one that is just coming around. Risingserpentian, you have a humble sprite, blessings to you 🙏
His mindset reminds me of my own father.
☺️🇯🇲I was born and raised in Jamaica and my mom is from Venezuela and my dad is Jamaican, very great video. Out of many people, one people indeed. I speak patwa,English,Spanish and Italian. Very interesting with the stories about the past how it was .
Are there Venezuelans in Jamaica?
@@AzureKite191 yeah lol, many different people in Jamaica
@@tiandrajohnson9353 I never heard of Hispanic Jamaicans. So what race do you consider yourself?
@@AzureKite191 bruh wym? Lmao I’m black
@@tiandrajohnson9353 What other type of Latinos are in Jamaica ?
Here because of what I learned from the Rohan Marley interview on Drink Champs. Learn something new everyday
Love you always love Jamaican. Chinese,love Chinese all over

His words are full of deep wisdom. Easier said than done to change from a destructive lifestyle into an Earth-based one, in my opinion. Thank you for sharing his thoughts with us.
Out of many one people Jamaica
What a lovely chilled out man.
I love how Jamaica literally represents multicultural unity. 💖
Give thanks for every day! Such wisdom, give thanks for sharing with the world 🙏🏿!
I enjoyed your story, real thing it's great .❤❤❤❤
A Jamaican Chinese man is just as chill as I expected, Waguan
“Waguan”…is that a Chinese Province?
So who is this person, what's his name? Where in Jamaica is he from? What primary school did he attend? What high school did he go to? What's his journey? And, basically, what is he doing now?
Him wi call budda 😂
@@patriciahercules6852 Patricia it is not about "looking for friends," but it is actually meant as a constructive criticism. In media, journalism or any form of print or electronic communication, the story, news or idea should have 6 key elements: Who, What, When, Where, How and Why. When those elements are addressed in the story (or video as in this case) the audience is usually satisfied with the delivery.
What a dope soul 💯
dope soul indeed, it was a blessing🤍
@@RisingSerpentina defo need more content from him! You’re super dope to 💯
He was damn unjustifiably privileged why.Because of the evils inflicted by British Colonoalism.That has scared so many of us negroes
That’s what we are all about the vibe it’s a thing that Jamaican exudes
Jah Mike, staying true to his life long beliefs.
I fully understand his experience and totally respect it✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 bless
Fantastic interview, he has a beautiful soul 🙏
Big up 🇯🇲 out of many but one people 🇯🇲🇬🇧🇩🇲👏🏾☝🏾⬆️
Out Of Many One People. Jamaica is just that!!
He is so grounded and level...
I was told that my father's father came from India and he too had a shop in Annotto Bay, St. Mary on the main road.
Who is this person you are interviewing. She has limited questions she needs more experience. I would love to hear more about his life , schooling and much more .
Though I'm black Jamaican, this man reminds me of my Chinese cousins - through my great aunt whose husband was Chinese.
Respect to humanity. And I'm praying that God will reveal himself to us personally. God bless 🙏
Respect Jah Mikes everytime!
🙏🏽One Love💘🗽🏙Brooklyn Love 🇺🇸🇯🇲🏴🇮🇪🇮🇳🇵🇦🇨🇦🇬🇧💙❤🖤💛💚🧡Big Up To Our Westindian Massive!
Greeting, i remember growing up in Jamaica seeing Chinese people and it wasn’t strange, I love the Chinese food different from the food in USA love this video blessings 💯💯💯🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Nice Video Serpentina alot learnt
Humans are like vessels to carry out the function of this universe. Some are the catalyst to the inevitable end, and some are the catalyst to the start of something new. It dictates how they interact with each other, and the way they perceive themselves and the world around them. It's incredibly how a man can go around creating conflict wherever he can, however he can. And why some might be dim-witted or devoided of logic. We are all apart of the process that will lead to its fulfillment, it's deep rooted in our subconscious minds, many people aren't even aware of it, they operate on a low frequency. Rastafarians seem to have a higher sense of consciousness about this, that's why I respect them.
Ras Chin speaking wisdom 💯👑
