You were asking where the Jamaicans have gone - as far as I can tell they have mostly moved to advertising agencies and work in TV, film, magazines, newspapers, every media that you can think of - there they are in the adverts and the programs 24/7. Good luck to them, but who the F is forcing this on us? There are more people from the Indian subcontinent in the UK, but they are not blasted all over the media, what's that about?! And media producers, are putting ethnic minorities in British historical programs, when they weren't even in the UK - history is being rewritten. Unless explained otherwise, I can only imagine that this is the work, of far left radical extremists! Great video, and I'm hungry now!
@@everest9707 I know what you mean. Because Jamaicans and even black Africans are being exploited because of their loud expressions, charisma and charm and mostly that ENERGY!... Even as a white guy I find that we are being channeled also but in another way. It's like they got a plan for every race and every people. We need to unite bro as that's our last salvation. Bless
I got chills when the homeless veteran said that the Jamaican women in the community give him food when his own people don’t even do that for him, that they were his people.
See it from a spiritual side: he loves Almighty God, and God has placed him among the TRUE House of Ancient Israel! They are God's OLD Testament chosen, and he is a Gentile that's been grafted in God's NEW Testament chosen.🙏✝📖🕊
Brixton is multi cultural, so why Wendell did not believe he would not be safe. What did he expect in the area? All he wanted to hear about the riots was not the progress. It shows his ignorance 'What a white man in a black woman shop'
I love the culture the Caribbean people brought to this country , i remember being a young kid about 12 years old in 1972 living in hackney and walking past houses with music shaking the windows with this deep sound and ive love all sorts of music ever since.
Albert made me cry 😢😢😢😢 our wonderful veterans,treated like this.......Jamaicans are wonderful people! I have met some wonderful people over the years through my work.....love them dearly....
The way Mr. Albert stood up instantly when you gifted him the food to shake your hand and say thank you. He deserves so much better from the country he sacrificed so much to defend. What a hero. What a legend. Hope his situation improves asap. My grandparents on my fathers side were born in Jamaica. My father and I born in England. With my mothers side being mixed British. When he said the local Jamaican women give him food all the time and he got emotional.. wow. Touching. We all need to be less judgmental, more loving, more kind, and giving. This is the London and UK i grew up loving being a part of
In Jesus Name. I am an American but this moved me completely. Love the love coming from the UK. Inspiring and a breath of fresh air. Much love and God bless you. ❤
Thanks, Wendall. We really enjoyed this episode on Brixton. We visited many times when my son lived there. We always enjoyed the vibe ,culture and food. Also good to see so many positive people. Fingers crossed for Albert. Keep up the excellent work.
Well done Wendall. We really need this kind of journalism. So many people want to report negative news. So nice to watch this wholesome video that even got some tears in my eyes in some parts.
I’m a musician and I’ve played in gigs all around the Brixton Estates. I can tell you the people and communities of Brixton are wonderful, welcoming and full of love. Brixton is a place I have so much affection for- thank you for showing how it really is !
I am also a musician. I think that i am better than the brixtonians. The jam's are certainly not intelligent people- the jam women are definately not attractive people.
I love jamiacan people. They are very hospitable. They know how to show you a good time. They are truly great people. We are lucky to have them in the uk. X
Wendall, you captured the true essence of beautiful Brixton ❤The place and the people hold a special place in so many hearts, a community and a vibe that is real and unreplicated. The continued surge of gentrification and overdevelopment has meant that my friends who once lived there had to move away so I no longer visit. You brought the joy of nostalgia through this excellent vlog. Thank you. Love to all who took part… the best souls ❤
Wonderful, Wendall. Having witnessed the more unsavoury videos/comment sections, so refreshing to see no negatives. Thank you so much - and good luck sent to Albert, such a dear man.
an incredible video wendall. Its brilliant I love how you show the best of an area and make people think highly of places that most do not want to visit. Nothing but respect and admiration for you
I was born in Brixton in 1977. I still live there off and on. It was a very interesting and unique place to grow up. I recognise a lot of the folks in this video. Thanks, great episode. Proper Jamaican food rules.
I'm white British I loved growing up in my teenage years in Brixton. I remember the Brixton riots in the 80s we would sit and watch people walking down the road with tvs 😂😂 I went to some amazing blues party's. I have to say I learnt living in a black community to really know how to dance. I remember the guy dancing in the market place for hours with the reggae music blasting every Saturday . So many great memories. They was also the best days for CB radios meeting people and going to party's to houses selling booze at a bar in the houses . We loved the wimpy too. Pubs was amazing at Christmas time. markets for buying presents everyone was free and happy we was all as one no one had more we was all equal working class people. Bring back the good old days. I loved all the lovers rock music playing through the market specially Carol Thompson. ❤️
As an English white man I’ll tell you now I’ve had more problems from my own people than any Jamaican or person from an ethnic background so I applaud & thank you for creating & uploading this very accurate video & hope to see many more in the near future 💯 there IS good & bad in each & every creed,colour & race (it’s fact) 👍🏻🤘🏻👌🏻🤟🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I think any race can say that about their own people to be honest 😅 I'm Black British, Jamaican heritage and id say the same thing. I've had more problems from Black people than anyone else. That's why I believe racism is a myth, it's a spiritual fight between Good and Evil.
@@blackedoutkillagaming8210I agree somewhat, more of blks my own have hurt me on a personal level than yts 50x more but asians be the most blatant outwardly nasty acting. A lot of British yts will still attempt to smile at you even if they deeply hate your guts but asians are more obvious with it.
ive had more problems from minorities than english people but thats probably because theres genuinely no young english people left -- coming from a mixed person

Omg! i love this vid Wendall, it was sooo uplifting and wonderful to see that wonderful Jamaican community and vibe! I felt truly happy after watching this and wanted to immediately come to Brixton to meet all those fab people, and taste the lovely food!! Thx Wenall xx
Brixton has changed significantly. Parts of Brixton with the large, beautiful Victorian and Georgian houses have become gentrified. Property prices are astronomical. A lot of black people moved out, and white people moved in. The centre of Brixton doesn’t have that nice vibe in the evening. You hardly see black people at night. It’s mostly white people partying in Brixton.
@juliechurley2716 If gentrification and social cleansing is your thing, yes. Brixton is like most of inner London, half ghetto, half yuppie, overpriced shithole.
You have made my day! What a beautiful flog. We need to take better care of our ex service workers. 17years in the armed forces and homeless☹️I’m happy to hear things are on the up for him
My girl, her son (14) and myself went to Brixton last easter. Rented a beautiful apartment, and stayed there for 6 days. My girlfriend and son, had never been to England before, so I took a chance and said " Have you ever heard of Brixton, near London"? They had not, so off we went. The culture, cafés, bars, secondhand shops, people and the music (everywhere!), made us feel sooo good! We found everything we hoped for. Nice and kind people. We even visited Bowies child home, and The Bowie Memorial. So many good memories, from Brixton.❤
Great video. I'm from Dublin and I lived in Peckham 35 years go. Spent a lot of time in Brixton. It used to be dodgy as hell. Nice to see it's changed for the better although it's a shame the Jamaican population is getting watered down .
"watered down"?? what about the english community that was completely replaced and felt that the community they loved and built over centuries changed so rapidly with them having no say. Guess you never knew about the yardie crack gangs that terrorised brixton for years.
It was interesting. I thought they’d knocked down a lot of the flats in Brixton. They’re knocking down a lot of the old high rise council estates in London. A lot of the Jamaicans sold up and moved out, and I think a lot did go to Croydon. Oh well…. they can’t afford their old houses in Brixton now, as it’s been gentrified. I’m glad there’s some residual energy in the place.
When you spoke to the veteran it bought me to tears. What a place Brixton is, it seems that it has the sense of community we all crave. Much love to you Wendall your videos are getting better and better. Keep up the cracking work. 💜
Came across this video and subbed immediately! What a heart warming and beautiful video displaying brotherly love and kindness! I am a Jamaican living in Miami and I have never been on that side of the world so thanks for this! If I wasn’t a Jamaican I would still love Jamaicans; very warm, friendly people with good food and even better vibes! Blessed Love brother you did your Big thing with this one! ❤️💛💚🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Really enjoyed this episode in Brixton, Wendall.. You're a naturally friendly and sociable fella and it's always fascinating to hear you chatting to local people.. One of my favourites to date.. 👏
Honestly u may see it as a small addition but man full respect for get the peoples socials and also putting it on the screen to allow people to actually find it. Alot of TH-cam's just say shout ur self out and no matter how bad the audio is, never put the socials on screen to actually help the person out. Respect man
Hey wendal, I live in the prison block 😂…I’ve lived there for 32 years…we all get along and in the summer there’s music and food…I love living here it’s home …♥️
@@maxngm8590 lol..yeah we hear music but you get that wherever you live especially on an estate…the fireworks are a problem I’m not denying that. Children are allowed to play that’s what kids do…About 20 years ago it was hell! I know most people around here so it’s home to me….🥰sorry if you don’t feel the same..
I know, and I am friends with a lot of people originally from the Caribbean. They are honestly absolutely lovely, kind, friendly people. The amount of hate they get sometimes is horrendous. Massive respect to these people, and their culture is so interesting. And I really love caribbean food too. Also I am ashamed that our own government won't help that poor veteran. Well done to the Jamaican people for looking after him.
This is a very important video. We are told we would be killed if we visited this area. The truth is you would be welcome. Jamaican people are friendly. You get the exception in all places. Well done, sir. This is real journalism.
Wow ..who told you that ?! Let me.guess Media ? Don't fall for the Division... make it a day out ..book a local hotel ..loads of pubs and bars around here and creative space and friendly people. I hope you enjoy Brixton when you come ! ❤
Yes lovely feeling I had when I visited with my Jamaican colleague in 2020. I'm Trinidadian, I had doubles in one of the restaurants too. I had something like snowcone while walking through a park. Pure joy listening to music as we walked along the street.@@dancingverona1281
Hard times create hard men, hard men create easy times, easy times create weak men, weak men create hard times. Guess where we are right now……. For those who are a weak man, become a strong gentleman and make things better, we should allways be leaders in being good and righteous.
From what I remember of my life hard times creates hard men- 1980's hard men create easy times- 1990's easy times creates weak men- 2000's weak men create hard times-2010's which brings us to now. And gives me a little hope
Brilliant video man personally I think this was your best yet really enjoyed seeing the vibe of the community being so welcoming makes me happy to see great stuff !
The 13 Black youths that died were at a party in new cross not Brixton.I was in the same year at school as Gerry Francis one of the "Kids" that died in the fire,and yes I never liked him but no one deserves to die like that,and it's surreal looking at his picture now tbh
FYI - The Jamaican patty is a derivative of the Cornish pasty - a baked pastry filled with meat or vegetables. The Cornish pasty was brought to the Caribbean by British settlers and was enhanced and modified by the African, Chinese and Indian people of the Caribbean.
@@VinaTaurus88 Incorrect actually. The Chinese were the main influencers of the Patty in Jamaica till this day the Jamaican-Chinese own the large Patty Companies.
In Jamaica it was enhanced mostly by the Chinese Immigrants despite what some may say on the Internet. Tastee Patties (Vincent Chang) being the flagrunner in its evolution over the past 60 years. Thereafter the Chin's have taken the title with Juici Patties. Every other patty company locally emulates these Patty Companies.
tbh in the 80s and 90s jamaicans from london would go to new york and when jamaicans from nyc would get deported from ny theyd come to london so theres a strong link and connection
Lived in Somerleyton Road Brixton when I came over from Jamaica, started my career in Brixton through the house blues dance, I owe a lot to living in Brixton for keeping me rooted. For me this was home away from home..Great Video!!
I so loved this video and the highlight of my Jamaican people and culture. This is who we are. A tiny island in the Caribbean and yet we leave our mark anywhere we go all over the world. Thank you. As a Jamaican who moved to Merida Mexico Jamaican food is one of the ways I established myself in the community there
I’m off to Brixton tomorrow! You’ve given me good vibes! This video was so needed coz of the negativity we British of all backgrounds have had to watch , feel and endure!! PEACE & LUV ! WENDALL X
Absolutely amazing video capturing the beauty of the jamaican community in Brixton. It makes me wanna go for the food. Felt extremely sad for the homeless man and hoping his circumstances have changed.
love the jamaican community!! proper genuine giving people, find me a jamican who doesnt raise your spirit and make your soul happy. the vibes from these guys are so contagious
Loved this video, much needed at the moment Wendell. I live in Chester now, if you ever fancy a visit let me know, I used to live in Bromley SE London but only ever had positive experiences in Brixton. The only sadness was Albert, no one who fought for our country should be hungry or homeless. Shame on the government! One love ✌🏻
I’m also 60 years old and remember the Brixton as described. Good times with the Jamaicans, reggae was massive all over London and Brixton was its heart. 🙏Happy daze!
The Govt turns its back on them especially but also on general members of the public. Look how they just caused civil unrest to introduce facial recognition and Shariah through the back door. Very sad.
Born 1977 and used to get the bus from Pimlico to Brixton with my mum on a Saturday to do a bit of shopping. Heavy shopping bags that cut into my little hands but funnily enough the reward of pancakes in syrup from the Turkish run Wimpy was worth the suffering.
Same here but born 1979, I was the muscle for my gran as she bought tons of food from Brixton Market. Brixton has the heart we always went back to, even though we lived down in Mitcham

The culture, cafés, bars, secondhand shops, people and the music (everywhere!), made us feel sooo good! We found everything we hoped for. Nice and kind people. We even visited Bowies child home, and The Bowie Memorial. So many good memories, from Brixton.❤
Great video. I'm from Dublin and I lived in Peckham 35 years go. Spent a lot of time in Brixton. It used to be dodgy as hell. Nice to see it's changed for the better although it's a shame the Jamaican population is getting watered down .
"watered down"?? what about the english community that was completely replaced and felt that the community they loved and built over centuries changed so rapidly with them having no say. Guess you never knew about the yardie crack gangs that terrorised brixton for years.
The gentrification of the area has seen many Jamaicans migrate to Croydon. 🙄
It was interesting. I thought they’d knocked down a lot of the flats in Brixton. They’re knocking down a lot of the old high rise council estates in London.
A lot of the Jamaicans sold up and moved out, and I think a lot did go to Croydon. Oh well…. they can’t afford their old houses in Brixton now, as it’s been gentrified.
I’m glad there’s some residual energy in the place.
@@Levi-ol4zv yeah. expecially the thornton heath part of croydon. its a mini brixton
Albert your a star ⭐️ keep Shining bright!
Dear God 🙏🏾
‘ What can I do for you today’
I love these words from Albert 🙏🏾
Big up 🇯🇲and Brixton 🙏🏾
Jah Bless You O'Neil. Thanks for your services Albert.
Love that Cook Oneal......seems like a very sincere and likable Chap..
That was a terrific video. Really refreshing and omg soooo want the food !!! Subbed
When you spoke to the veteran it bought me to tears. What a place Brixton is, it seems that it has the sense of community we all crave. Much love to you Wendall your videos are getting better and better. Keep up the cracking work. 💜
Came across this video and subbed immediately! What a heart warming and beautiful video displaying brotherly love and kindness! I am a Jamaican living in Miami and I have never been on that side of the world so thanks for this! If I wasn’t a Jamaican I would still love Jamaicans; very warm, friendly people with good food and even better vibes! Blessed Love brother you did your Big thing with this one! ❤️💛💚🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Really enjoyed this episode in Brixton, Wendall.. You're a naturally friendly and sociable fella and it's always fascinating to hear you chatting to local people..
One of my favourites to date.. 👏
I love the spirit of the true good Jamaican’s and Albert
Albert- I wish you all the best you deserve.
Feel sorry for the homeless ex veteran, living on the streets,😒
Wars are for politicians to gen power and $ , those who fight in wars are just puppets , they use you then they trow u away like garbage !
He was so happy when he got that fresh Jamaican food.
Brilliant people, thanks for this episode Wendall, Jamaican sauces are my favourite too!! Greetings from Sth Australia 🦘🦘
Bless that war veteran man. Bless his heart man. May god bless him and keep him safe. Made me choke up listening to him the poor man. 🙏🏾😢
thank you wendall what a great video
It's a shame that ex army guy is homeless.
But atleast the locals don't let him go hungry.
I hope he gets his own home soon.
love ur videos man and all the light ur shedding to these misunderstood areas and showing the true energy of these people and spreading love!
Wendall, I always enjoy your videos, but this is one of your finest.
More power to you sir. Keep the love flowing, bro.
I appreciate that
Honestly u may see it as a small addition but man full respect for get the peoples socials and also putting it on the screen to allow people to actually find it. Alot of TH-cam's just say shout ur self out and no matter how bad the audio is, never put the socials on screen to actually help the person out. Respect man
Hey wendal, I live in the prison block 😂…I’ve lived there for 32 years…we all get along and in the summer there’s music and food…I love living here it’s home …♥️
You don't get the Facebook group posts then like I do here with people moaning about kids playing out or bonfires or fireworks loud music etc lol
@@maxngm8590 lol..yeah we hear music but you get that wherever you live especially on an estate…the fireworks are a problem I’m not denying that. Children are allowed to play that’s what kids do…About 20 years ago it was hell! I know most people around here so it’s home to me….🥰sorry if you don’t feel the same..
Respect to the jamaican community god bless you all. Love & peace 🇯🇲🇬🇧👍
I disagree
I would love to live in a community like that. Give me real people anytime. It's heartwarming ❤
I live in east London and I just love the Jamaicans,they can be some of the kindest people you can meet,particularly the older generation👍🏻great vid 😎
I know, and I am friends with a lot of people originally from the Caribbean. They are honestly absolutely lovely, kind, friendly people. The amount of hate they get sometimes is horrendous. Massive respect to these people, and their culture is so interesting. And I really love caribbean food too. Also I am ashamed that our own government won't help that poor veteran. Well done to the Jamaican people for looking after him.
God bless you Oneil may your store basket never empty 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲✊🏾
This is a very important video. We are told we would be killed if we visited this area. The truth is you would be welcome. Jamaican people are friendly. You get the exception in all places. Well done, sir. This is real journalism.
Wow ..who told you that ?! Let me.guess Media ? Don't fall for the Division... make it a day out ..book a local hotel ..loads of pubs and bars around here and creative space and friendly people. I hope you enjoy Brixton when you come ! ❤
Yeah ago in the 80s and 90s u would of but now totally different xx
Who told you that nonsense ??
Yes lovely feeling I had when I visited with my Jamaican colleague in 2020. I'm Trinidadian, I had doubles in one of the restaurants too. I had something like snowcone while walking through a park. Pure joy listening to music as we walked along the street.@@dancingverona1281
Literally no one has ever said that; this isn't South Africa.
Hard times create hard men, hard men create easy times, easy times create weak men, weak men create hard times. Guess where we are right now……. For those who are a weak man, become a strong gentleman and make things better, we should allways be leaders in being good and righteous.
From what I remember of my life
hard times creates hard men- 1980's
hard men create easy times- 1990's
easy times creates weak men- 2000's
weak men create hard times-2010's
which brings us to now.
And gives me a little hope
Cyclical as all.
We gotta be strong again ❤️🔥
@@natashafletcher600Time to be hard again❤️🔥
@@natashafletcher600 too quickly, the cycle happens over generations not decades
Brilliant video man personally I think this was your best yet really enjoyed seeing the vibe of the community being so welcoming makes me happy to see great stuff !
❤❤❤❤❤❤ I love this video great commentary. Love my Jamaican people 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲. PEACE AND LOVE ❤
The food that guy was cooking looks amazing. We need more street vendors like him. Love and blessings from Manchester 🙏❤
Havent visited Brixton yet - but this video made my mind clear… Next time I am in London, Brixton is a must go
It’s one of the only locations I can stand, in London now
The 13 Black youths that died were at a party in new cross not Brixton.I was in the same year at school as Gerry Francis one of the "Kids" that died in the fire,and yes I never liked him but no one deserves to die like that,and it's surreal looking at his picture now tbh
FYI - The Jamaican patty is a derivative of the Cornish pasty - a baked pastry filled with meat or vegetables. The Cornish pasty was brought to the Caribbean by British settlers and was enhanced and modified by the African, Chinese and Indian people of the Caribbean.
Nice!
Pretty accurate, Chinese had nothing to do with it though.
I do not think the indians was part of patties, it is mainly african people as Indians and Chinese stuck to their ways, cuisine and culture.
@@VinaTaurus88 Incorrect actually. The Chinese were the main influencers of the Patty in Jamaica till this day the Jamaican-Chinese own the large Patty Companies.
In Jamaica it was enhanced mostly by the Chinese Immigrants despite what some may say on the Internet. Tastee Patties (Vincent Chang) being the flagrunner in its evolution over the past 60 years. Thereafter the Chin's have taken the title with Juici Patties. Every other patty company locally emulates these Patty Companies.
Superb vlog Wendall. Thank you❤💛💚
We need this amazing community spirit spread across the UK. Heart-warming ❤
Videos are getting better and better mate, really enjoy watching. Thanks
Appreciate that 🙏
What an amazing upload Wendall! Beautiful people ❤
Brixton is literally. The sister neighborhood of East Flatbush, here in New York, with the Jamaican community.😂
tbh in the 80s and 90s jamaicans from london would go to new york and when jamaicans from nyc would get deported from ny theyd come to london so theres a strong link and connection
@@t9878 Facts, London Caribbeans and NYC Caribbeans and Toronto Caribbeans are really linked in. CaribTriangle
So true I am from Flatbush I would definitely take a visit Brixton and Toronto to see the similarities and enjoy the people and culture
@t9878 lived Nyc all my life, never met someone from London there
@@abc876 ok what am I supposed to do with that info
Lived in Somerleyton Road Brixton when I came over from Jamaica, started my career in Brixton through the house blues dance, I owe a lot to living in Brixton for keeping me rooted. For me this was home away from home..Great Video!!
I so loved this video and the highlight of my Jamaican people and culture. This is who we are. A tiny island in the Caribbean and yet we leave our mark anywhere we go all over the world. Thank you. As a Jamaican who moved to Merida Mexico Jamaican food is one of the ways I established myself in the community there
You can't mess with Jamaican food, loved all over the world😋
Great video, just what we need now. Cultures can come together and thrive.
I’m off to Brixton tomorrow! You’ve given me good vibes! This video was so needed coz of the negativity we British of all backgrounds have had to watch , feel and endure!! PEACE & LUV ! WENDALL X
Great video 😊 I’m so proud to be from South London
Sout Londen is nice place to be👍🏾👋🏾
Sammme big up South Londonn
Same here
Absolutely amazing video capturing the beauty of the jamaican community in Brixton. It makes me wanna go for the food.
Felt extremely sad for the homeless man and hoping his circumstances have changed.
love the jamaican community!! proper genuine giving people, find me a jamican who doesnt raise your spirit and make your soul happy. the vibes from these guys are so contagious
Loved this video, much needed at the moment Wendell. I live in Chester now, if you ever fancy a visit let me know, I used to live in Bromley SE London but only ever had positive experiences in Brixton. The only sadness was Albert, no one who fought for our country should be hungry or homeless. Shame on the government! One love ✌🏻
Least you’re putting the blame where it belongs. It’s governments who aren’t treating the ex servicemen properly. Not black people, or immigrants.
@@jaijai5250 no one blames black people for veterans being homeless. or maybe im missing something
I love Brixton. Used to DJ at the Dogstar. The Market is amazing. Brixton Academy my all time fave venue. Well done on this. Fantastic video.
Loved the dog star 👍
Loved the Dog star..used to go to drumnbass events there roughly 15 years ago
I’m also 60 years old and remember the Brixton as described. Good times with the Jamaicans, reggae was massive all over London and Brixton was its heart. 🙏Happy daze!
Soul was big back then too, with bands like Soul 2 Soul and Loose Ends. 😇
Love this.Welldone!✊🏿💝🇿🇼🌍👍🏿
yeh man. I have just shed a tear, the world needs more people like you
Thickos? the world is already chocka block with idiots...
The government has no soul when they turn their backs on our soldiers and veterans 😢😢
The Govt turns its back on them especially but also on general members of the public. Look how they just caused civil unrest to introduce facial recognition and Shariah through the back door. Very sad.
Born 1977 and used to get the bus from Pimlico to Brixton with my mum on a Saturday to do a bit of shopping. Heavy shopping bags that cut into my little hands but funnily enough the reward of pancakes in syrup from the Turkish run Wimpy was worth the suffering.
Don't talk about wimpy highlight of my week as a kid,loved it😊
@@didwest1249 Oh yes 🙏
Sweet memories from your young age❤
Same here but born 1979, I was the muscle for my gran as she bought tons of food from Brixton Market. Brixton has the heart we always went back to, even though we lived down in Mitcham
Jamaicans I tell you are a special people. You can’t deny it
Yes we are! Maybe it’s something to do with the 12 Tribes of Israel. Although I’m a British born baby boomer to Jamaican parents.
Nit just Jamaican love most caribbean ppl are
@@jaijai5250 Ergo, not Jamaican. Nice that you tried to claim the compliment for yourself, though.
They certainly are not intelligent, hard working or attractive people
October 2024, Watching from USA. Jamaican here. Love my Jamaican 🇯🇲 people.
Amazing video Wendell, I used to work in Brixton I really miss it.
