  • Welcome back to another vlog. Come along with me as I head Spanish Town to see a little boy about a drum set...
    A massive thank you to Maharri, owner of Wellness Rebirth Retreats, who has helped me to make this happen! Also big up to Junior (aka 1 Chippo Dan) and DJ Kan (owner of Youths On The Rise) who helped me on the journey.

    Hey beautiful souls… so I never really ask for people to like or comment on my videos BUT it would really mean a lot to me if you did leave a comment and/ or a like to help push this video out there in the world. I think there is so much talent in this video that really just needs more exposure to help these kids and musicians get the recognition that they deserve. Love you guys so much and I hope you enjoyed the video!

      I think you are also helping to perpetuate the stereotypes by keep making it the theme of your videos.What you could do to counter is go to some nice ghettos and show the world that not all our ghettos look that ugly.You could have all so went to different parts of Spanish town such as ' the historical district,St Jago heights ,GC Foster to dispell some of the rumours.What you are doing is reinforcing the stereotypes by repeating and hyper-focusing.You offend Jamaicans if they think you pitty them.
      Lead with your heart not emotions.Love you ❤

    My beautiful caring daughter searching for her path in life which is already set. You shared with me you had a calling for Jamaica which i didnt understand and was very worried. You bravely went against all family concerns and travelled your path. It overwhelms me which i already knew your beautiful soul, connection with nature and caring soul. This video showcases the love and caring you want to share and give to others. Some people question why you doin it in Jamaica and not back home in Australia but we both know something in your life path called out Jamaica and thats how it came about. Love you and so proud of you.

      Yes.
      He was setting up the drum kits for the younger boy. And when the younger boy was playing, you could see that he was controlling the the yellow things. (Don't know what they name. Is it's cymbals?). You could see his foot moving up and down.
      And when he started to play, he was so good.
