fascinating portraits of JA music & culture
I may be somewhat biased as a featured voice in these podcasts, but speaking as a scholar of Jamaican music and its travels, I find this series to be a fascinating and rich portrait of Jamaican culture in the modern era. Some real gems of oral history here, especially when Roifield brings in the voices of legendary practitioners and producers, as well as longtime devotees in the diaspora. These are also snappily produced and easily consumed. Well worth your time.
