Hi.

Welcome to my blog. I document my adventures in life through my thoughts on travel, style, food and even occasionally work.

Cross intersection of Dancehall and Afro Beat

If you have ever met a person from Jamaica or a person of Jamaican ancestry, they will be the first person to bring to your attention how many things have a Jamaican origin. Often times it comes down to Jamaica's musical and cultural influence. Afro Beat, though it holds it own in terms of being a genre of music, has borrowed a little bit here and there from its musical cousin Dancehall music. Now the two genres have decided to collide with new collaborations from between Vybz Kartel and Nigerian Afro Pop Stars Burna Boy and WizKid.
