We DO NOT say “Asian Jamaicans” in Jamaica. Miss Chin is a Jamaican! Hence our motto “Out of many one people.”
💪🏽👍🏽
Yeah, and Kamala Harris is Jamaican , NOT.
Ms Chin: fact CK ya do pls tell me who were Jimmy Cliff's road manager and who was Bob Marley's road manager? I wish the world could find this more credible had you come with this information earlier in light of all the things about the black against Chinese and you know the other way around. Hopefully we both know this is not a true thing it's just propaganda. So I want to make sure you're coming with the realness. She's educating the people within her own culture about reggae music more appropriation of our culture. Such a sad thing going on around the world. They won't let us be us, and I'm not apologizing for their fear Factor. I too am afro Asian Hispanic and all the rest of them mixed in. So I and very skeptical about this coming out 5 days ago not sure when it was recorded because that information is not here. However had this been recorded 5 days ago what took her so long to come forward with this? Whichever this flips to I appreciate at least you took the time for some accuracies. My people already know about all this so she's acclimating her people another form of appropriation because you already see the run over r&b and all the rest of the musical genres with this BTS by transsexual whatever it is band. Good for them they got over but I think this is on the verge of crossing the line. You say we hate you but you picture us with monkeys next to our photos, you say we randomly mow you down and hate you and all that but you have yet to bring a suspect and don't you know that there's a lot of dark colored people in this world that aren't necessarily African or African-American so there goes your stereotypes right out the door. I think Mr B's turning in his grave!yourr music?
Just like Miss KK or vice president would say I'm a Indian Jamaican nah baby you still Jamaican see they're trying to straddle the fence to find out whichever fits them. That's really concerning.
@@suffolk6311 only her dad is Jamaican. Her mom is Indian...
ok let's get this correct, WE (jamaicans) DO NOT differentiate our people like Americans do, she is jamaican, just jamaican. smh
this is beautiful
@aluvard632 has a Jamaican I approve this message
Facts. We don't differentiate at all
🙂
@@KarleneE that’s not what that saying stems from.
I noticed how she kept putting being Jamaican first she said My country My culture. Respect Ms Pat 🇯🇲
🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
@SHANOYA GORDON exactly!! 😂
Born n raise she a Jamaican
She is a Jamaican lady but not her Chinese origin
@@fatimaaskhkir6847 The true beauty of this story is that she is a Jamaican born Chinese, she was born and raised in Jamaica, the Jamaican people treated her as expected a Jamaican citizen, the love she got from Jamaica is shown when even having to leave home country, she dedicated her life promoting the country she loved and grew up in. If she had been born in Britain or in United States, she likely to have been spat at, bullied and beaten...
I met Miss Pat in the 70s at Randy's and her and her husband Vincent changed my life a great deal. I respect them to the Max.
Wonderful people, wonderful music. You are fortunate. 😊✌️
Mob b bb
So lucky! I'd love to meet her💜
Love how she kept saying my culture. If she doesn't open her mouth you wouldn't think she's jamaican.
Thats how it is for my aunt. I'm Jamaican and it blows peoples minds when my white aunt (by blood) visits. Hearing a white lady talk like a straight up Rasta takes some getting used to for people.
@Alex Weber because Jamaica is a Majority Black African Country.
Source: me a yardman
Lollllsss she definitely looks Caribbean to me. Jusy how she presents herself and her posture.
I think americans need to stop looking at Caribbean and thinking we are all black.
We are multicultural and we are one people.
@Alex Weber Don't forget indian... Or, "Coolie" as they would say.
@@jayjohnson8403 how does one "look Caribbean" she doesn't look indigenous to me.🤦🏿♂️ also how do Americans come into this? No one mentioned them.
This is the FIRST time anyone has showcased Ms. Pat. Why? She was a groundbreaker. Movie please!
YES! This needs a movie
Yes! 💯
Wrong, several Interviews, eg VP Record's Story uploaded 11yrs ago and interview by Corene Antoinette 4yrs, split in 4 parts, amongst many others!
Careful. The way Hollywood do a POC dirty, they may make a movie of Ms. Pat Chin... starring Scarlett Johansson.
loads of Jamaican artists do not like VP and how the have conducted themselvs... I don't know the ins and outs but ricky trooper has alot to say. along with loads of dancehall tunes and lyrics cussing VP
They lady is a Jamaican living in the United States, Miss Chin is the bomb.
Anyone who's Jamaican wouldn't be surprised or assume. It is literally our motto, Out of Many, One People.
This is literally not what the motto stands for and yes Jamaicans would assume because you hardly ever meet Chinese people who speak with the accent or mix with blacks here.
@@elisejackson2854
What does the motto stand for?
@@elisejackson2854 Would you care to expound?
@@tooprivate1061 Out of many, one means ultimately Africans. Got it.
That's really beautiful
She is 100% jamaican.. Thier is no asterix... That's the beauty of the island. Everyone is 1
@Rose Goddess you don't get it Bro
@The Immortal 2r3333 (ADOS) yes, I do my dad is Jamaican he loves her an tbh that is the beauty of the island he says the people are one
@Rose Goddess chinese have been here for over a century going back to colonial days ....u know nothing
She's Ethnically Asian-Jamaican, but her nationality's Jamaican, nothing wrong with acknowledging beautiful diversity.
@Rose Goddess She said she was Born there. So She is true blue jamaican. You don't have to be indigenous to be called Jamaican
VP is short for Vincent & Patricia giving the world the Gift of Reggae recordings to this day many thanks from all Reggae Music fans around the world.
Amen!
@@Ashelina 👍
Thanks for the explanation. While watching a friend asked What the 'VP' stood for? I had to admit that I didn't know. I just knew it as 'VP Records'. I never tried to find out, what the initials were, after all these years!
I was a Able to tell the person what the initials stood for, from your explanation!
@@juniorh9238 Respect man i noticed it was never mentioned except when Lady P was talking about moving from Jamaica & never mentioned the initials of the name just Vincent her husband. But as a fan of Reggae a little trivia on the History of Reggae is always fun learning.
She's Jamaican, no need to use her race as an adjective. She's Jamaican.
AMEN TO THAT!!!!
It’s not that deep obviously she’s not just Jamaican
@@Atribecalledsuccess You don't see the irony in your response and i'm not going to point it out to you.
@@Jamaicangmr1 I see it but with your mindset African Americans are just white people because that’s where they lived most of their life
That’s an Asian woman
@@Atribecalledsuccess Ok you don't get it. Her race doesn't matter it doesn't need to be a part of her identifier. We are all people. I am not African Jamaican i am Jamaican.
People come in all shapes, colors and sizes not stereotypes... 🙌
Hiw did you figure that one out.... lol
Tell that to most white people, mainly karens and toms.
@@blaquenoise Think you missed the point
You’re not Chinese Jamaican white Jamaican or black Jamaican you’re just Jamaican. Being a Jamaican it came as shock to me when I moved to the us everyone has these subcategories. Outside of the us they refer to everyone has Americans wish people here would do the same and treat each other with love and respect.
Nonsense! Jamaican is not an ETHNICITY. It is a nationality. You have Jamaicans of different ethnicities, with the overwhelming majority being of African descent. It is absolutely right that people should celebrate and be proud of their own ethnic identity!
What is there to be proud of your ethnic identity? Its just generic lottery. You should be proud of your own achievements not of your race or your country which all happens by accident.
@@tylerdavidson2400 Accident of birth or not... It is what you are. I have an identity and rich culture of which I am immensely proud. It defines me as a human being. What I do as a human being is an individual matter but my ethnic and cultural identity is what I have in common with other people like me. It's obviously not important to you and no doubt you have your reasons, but be under no illusion, that for many (if not most people) ethnic identity is a matter of pride in a way that mere nationality can never replace.
*You should come to Toronto*
@@Africa1000 Jamaican is not an ethnicity. We do not recognize it as such but it is an identity that is shared with over 2.7 million people. I am Jamaican and I understood what the commenter was saying. In Jamaica, we recognize people of different ethnicities. That is a given but when we refer to ourselves and others, being Jamaican - we usually dont add ethnicity to it. So I am Jamaican. I recognize other Jamaicans when I hear them speak or sometimes there is something cultural that help me to spot a fellow Jamaicans. So it would be odd to us to refer to someone as Asian Jamaican or Afro-Jamaican. It is not something we do in our culture.
A beautiful and wonderfully strong woman!
Almost Complete Garage Lmao!
I'm Asian and I love reggae! Very vibrant, full of life and meaning. When the music starts you can't help but sway to the beat.
Big up yourself, nuff love from Canada 🇨🇦
This is INCREDIBLE. This shows unity between cultures, music, and shows how similar we really are. 😊
One love.
INDEED!
Well she's JAMAICAN Not that she's a Chinese lady from Beijing
You won’t see that in America. Unity. That’s the beauty of weed and music. One love
@@tooprivate1061 don’t wonder. Just come to china and see. Black people are paid higher salary than local chinese.
I love that black & white photo of her behind the counter
her head resting on her finger tips & poised high.
She's so full of confidence & defiance in a male dominated world
I’m Jamaican from Chinese decent and I always just say Jamaican. Only other nationalities find this unbelievable but like she says” My music,my country,my culture “🙌🏽👏🏽🔥
Same! I say I am Trinidadian, even if I look Chinese. Living in America, people asked if I was Japanese, or Korean. Someone thought my mother was Filipino. 😂😂😂
Because other countries need to make sure they isolate their whiteness. Jamaica isn’t a majority Caucasian country so they wouldn’t care.
Yaaaay VP Records!
❤❤❤❤
i love it when she said, "we don't use guns, we use songs"
It's nice that she's giving back to the community!
Proud jamaican right here 🎶
Respect my Jamaican sister you did us well and you did us proud..like our motto says Out of many one people..love your contribution to building our music,our culture and our country ..respect to the max...
She’s a beautiful woman big up miss pat still going strong one love
There is still a divide that is lessening from year to year … but many Asians and Blacks are actually closer than some ppl think . The younger generations are especially changing the narrative 👍
FALSE! Asian and Black relationship is STILL complicated EVEN in younger generation
@@misshelloareyouthere who said it wasn’t complicated. It is for all races Rob . Lol. I only said we are closer to them than you think and the younger generations is getting better. Who said there is no complications liar ? Lol. Rob the divider ✌️
I agree we are much closer than we and others think
@@misshelloareyouthere it is only complicated if people make it complicated. I'm friends with anyone who wants to be friends. It's when other people act badly that it is reflected on is as if we all act badly. Truth is we all are individuals and should not be defined by our race and how other people of our race acts.
Africans and asians are very connected tbh.
She only looks Chinese people. She's everything Jamaican ❤️❤️ Big up Miss Pat!!
I love chinese people. They bring good every where they live unlike Americans
Jamaican is a nationality not a race.... Jamaicans can be black, white, or yellow. Please leave your racially divisiveness away from this thread.
@@blardymunggas6884 yeah everybody in africa agrees with you! they are very very hapy with all the the good chinese bring to africa!
I'm stuck on her race, her background, her challenges. That is BEAUTIFUL! She is WONDERFUL! Her story is amazing, is there more stories/documentaries out there about her? She is inspirational for women everywhere.
Seriously? Lol.
Stuck on her race? In a place like Jamaica there is nothing noteworthy about it. IJS.
The caribbean is multiracial and cultural place.Her race is irrelevant and doesnt matter.Yall focused on the wromg things 🙄🙄 There is nothing surprising about her being an asian caribbean person
@@oneviwatara9384 no she didn’t. She just helped to spread it. Smh
@@oneviwatara9384 Are you foolish or are you foolish?
When you’re looking for the beauty in life, this story is what it’s all about. Pure, genuine and authentic expression and commitment over decades for the love of music and the good in humanity. Thank you Pat and all reggae musicians for one of my favourite genres. ✌️❤️🎶
I may not like all kinds of Reggae or many Reggae songa, but I did grow up listening to it in early 2000's and still enjoy it occasionally when I can hear my neighbor blasting some.
This woman is indeed one unique & surprising blending in smooth unbelievable waves of cool & class.
This is the spot in Jamaica queens. Big up Jamaica Ave
THANK YOU MRS CHIN FOR WHAT YOU DID FOR JAMAICAN MUSIC, GOD BLESS YOU.
I feel good to see this as a proud Jamaican also
Miss Chin for the win 👏🏾👏🏾
Very interesting and intriguing story
How beautiful. We all need to be made aware that the world has a richness of stories that are to the benefit of us all. Love Reggae but didn’t know about Miss Pat. Peace
She’s so beautiful !
Wow. As a younger Jamaican I'm sad to say I didn't know about this lady til now and how she played a role in reggae. Thanks miss chin. That pic of young Bob caught me off guard lol
She's so inspiring, never stop trying to accomplish your dreams yall 💗💗
Jamaican and Jamaican no differential out of many is 1!!!! Big up miss Chin
Big up yuh self Miss Pat, doing us proud.
Out of Many One People 🇯🇲
Is a movie in the making? Wow what a beautiful enduring story of pride for one's culture!
I'm so Blessed to learn the TRUTH .... Much RESPECT to MISS PAT ❤️
I love how you can still hear her Jamaican accent even though she has been living in the U.S for so long. Big up Miss Pat 🇯🇲🇯🇲
One Jamaican universal love miss Pat .......Bless up !!!!
Miss Pat breaking boundaries in so many ways and bringing sweet reggae music to the forefront, thanks be to her. 🔴🟡🟢🦸🏻♀️
Bring out more content, the media is trying to separate races, Jamaicans don't see her as Asian...when you respect culture, you get honored, when you disrespect culture you'll just be forgotten like how DJT is slowly disappearing
People are diverse, so wouldn't it be better to see, accept, and celebrate people's differences instead of ignoring them?
@@gav1233 I don't think you got the point and no, it is not necessarily better.
@@gav1233 we can easily see what she looks like. Her nation and people are jamaican.
DJT will always be in your head.
TDS is real
@@milkandspice1074 Oh, I get it. They're trying to say that she's still Jamaican and part of Jamaican culture.
My mistake. I misunderstood and thought it was one of those annoying "I don't see color" comments.
Much love Ms Pat from one Caribbean Queen to Another...never forget your roots! 💕🌹👍👏❤💌
Thank you Miss Pat! One love❤
How COOL would that be to meet her in this day, with that Jamaican accent?!😄
@Brenda Sunshine Her accent. You don't hear it?? Its not thick but absolutely there. Once a Jamaican moves from Jamaica to America people can't understand the thick accent. So when this lady or my mother or father talk to anyone in America that is not Jamaican then they gotta turn their accent off as best as they can. So basically if you can't hear her accent, then the fact that she suppressed her accent enough to the point that you can't hear it means she was successful at suppressing her accent enough so that you could understand her. Soo...for that...your welcome. You understood her. She only had to turn off a huge part of her culture (speaking normally and comfortably without judgement) in order to do so. Cause once the cameras turn off, Once my mother hangs up the phone, once my father stops talking to his boss, the accent comes back out in full force. My fathers is really really thick. My mothers....not so much. Nobody would understand them otherwise. Hence the reason they have to turn the accent off for people. When I first moved here people would ask me if I could speak English. I was speaking English. But my accent was so thick. I was 6 years old getting told to learn English before coming to an English speaking country....by my teacher amongst others. I was speaking English. I just could not understand why this was happening. I had to learn to tone it down. It took a lot of years, bullying and depression to get to a point where I could actually talk to people and they understand me. So could we give her a break because changing your vernacular is very difficult. Like....its hard to change how you talk.
@@blackryan5291 I've heard similar stories from Jamaican friends/colleagues
@@blackryan5291 hey Black Ryan 🇯🇲 dont waste u time with jealous brenda ....
I LOVE REGGAE! Reggae influenced our culture so much that we branched off this genre and make what we call "Island Reggae". Music from the pacific islands.
Merenge and salsa have a definite “reggae” kind of jive... African influence as well...
Happy music... that makes you vibrate from the inside out! “... of melodies pure and true...” ✌️❤️🇯🇲
That actually explains a lot! I grew up in Hawaii and I remember a lot of the music on the radio had a similar feel. I never made the connection before, but that's awesome!
And great music it is!!
Glad this is getting attention. In my time in America I’ve noticed Americans think all Jamaicans are black. WE JAMAICANS DONT DIFFERENTIATE BASED ON RACE. If you’re Jamaican you’re Jamaican. It’s really as simple as that for us 🤷🏾♀️ unlike America, Jamaica takes its motto of “out of many, one people” seriously. MUCH RESPECT MS PAT 👊🏾
If you are that stupid to think that Jamaicans don't differentiate on race then you dont know Jamaica or its history. The vast majority of Jamaicans are of African descent and most are proud of that. You are deeply confused between nationality and ethnicity!
Most Jamaicans ARE black. I understand the covid situation has put a spotlight in unfair treatment of Asian groups but we don’t have to pretend something is more than what it is. I feel like this comment section is pandering given what I mentioned above.
Jamaicans do make reference to racial differences (ie/ browning, coolie, chiney...).
Most of Jamaican culture constitute African culture remixed. Asian Jamaicans are an extreme minority but constitute as mainly as the business class of the island (ie/ shop owners, etc...).
The relationship between Chinese and the larger black Jamaican community hasn’t always been smooth sailing.
Are there personalities who have broken the mould, but it doesn’t change the historical reality.
Reggae would have still been reggae without Mrs. Pat Chin because Afro derives music is popular everywhere (soca, reggae, dancehall, rnb, blue, rock n roll, Afrobeats, hip hop, merengue, bachata, salsa, samba, kizomba, Kompa, etc....)
@@livingfinance This is a brilliant, clear and well thought out comment. What you say cannot be argued against. If anyone tries to contradict what you are saying then one can only assume that they have an agenda.
@@livingfinance girl thank you. They’re running up and down this comment section coming at everyone who calls her Asian Jamaican😭throwing that motto around like dirt and catching a fit🤣

BOOP BOOP!!! Ya a chinese jamaican as my mother would say and we love you!!... i love em!
Was visiting Jamaica in '73 & stayed in a hut in Nigril. I went to the local parties & danced to the music off reggae. Fell in love with ur country & the Rastafarians. I will always hold those memories near & dear. Thank u Ms Pat for ur love..💕💕💕
I always heard of Miss Pat but never knew her story. Nice.
Looove her! What a fantabulous human being 😁
Awwe what a cute old granny, please respect the elder, put yourself in their shoes, we will be like them one day.
She's a real one
MUCH RESPECT , THERE IS LOTS ASIANS DOING IT BIG IN JAMAICA .
But if you know, then you’d know there was Asians from nearly every background living in the Caribbean for generations 🤷♀️ it’s not that surprising to me but I commend her
@Messy half of my family is from trinidad and literally there’s more chinese/indian than black ppl there supposedly
@Messy but this doc is about Jamaica not T&T
@Messy Caribbean constitutes of many islands with their own respective ethnic demographics due to historical migrations. Just because two islands are part of the caribbean does not mean they are the same culturally or demographically.
This isn't a story about the islands where indians and chinese are a majority this is a story about an island where black jamaicans form the vast part of the culture and demographic and a jamaican woman of indian/chinese descent woman had in distributing the art form.
it's commendable and she deserve recognition but the excessive accolades of many indians and chinese in jamaica is exaggerated and misplaced because some people have an agenda.
@@livingfinance Where are you from?
@@suhocidal The East Indians have a slight numerical advantage in Trinidad and a larger advantage in Guyana. Though the largest groups there are certainly other groups of people in those countries.
The fact that she moved from Jamaica to America to live in Jamaica, Queens is hilarious

U can take the girl out of Jamaica but u can't take Jamaica... It's just meant 2 b! Good 4 u the amazing Miss Pat, jump up!

I mean I think there’s a reason it’s called Jamaica Queens right? New York City has many areas that are hubs of specific immigrant groups.
@@qtpie488 actually no I don't know? U talk as if I should know? If it's because of a large population of Jamaicans living there, then I'm happily surprised n very impressed! So enlighten me please!

I'm loving these i feel inspired
She's making a difference in culture.
We all are one and equal.
No one is higher then the other.

People don't realize that Chinese people have a huge influence in Jamaica.
It's more than that. Most people have very ignorant perceptions of central and south America even though information is literally 1 google search away.
Yeah chinese people are the ones that toke all the work away from jamaicans and that resulted in them being poor. thats what happens when you praise globalists.

Big up miss pat..what a great ROLE MODEL for everyone ..
I love all of the comments from Jamaicans here - just show you how big their hearts are. Miss Pat Chin is like their auntie and they are proud that she is a Jamaican like them.
Jamaica. Out of many. One People!
I had an elderly Jamaican American professor years ago who shared that his best childhood friend as a kid was a Chinese Jamaican girl that was the first time I learned of an Asian Jamaican community. What a great life story -and what wonderful music to spread in the world!
She doesn't see herself as Asian jamaican... just Jamaican... American love labels too much. Have a blessed day
The British Empire, after the end of slavery had people from all over the world moving to the Caribbean, my grandparents included. Out of many, one people.
In Jamaica we just call everybody Jamaicans. We dont have a term call Asian Jamaican and those things. Everybody is just straight Jamaican
As a jamaican woman, ill tell you there are many different races as jamaicans.
Thank you for all your hard work and dedication Mrs Chin to put reggae music on the world stage much appreciated love and respect ✊
One country, out of many ❤️🇯🇲 love this and she is such a kind soul

If you talk about caste system that 's a whole different story. I hope this helps.
@@AlliDell Ik that’s what we call them. That’s their nationality but is doesn’t change the race behind it. Jamaica is a Black Country. The motto refers more to culture than the ppl for that reason.

Black people being upset that others refer to her as Asian Jamaican is just as weird as being offended with calling someone Afro/African American. That’s what they are the race doesn’t change a thing😊.
Lovely woman, Thank You!
Yes Miss Pat!!!
I'm so happy to see and hear Ms. Patricia on You Tube giving some truth about herself and Jamaican music.
I first met her in 1968 at Randy's music in KIngston, where she became one of my favourite people. She was always the nicest of people, and although always busy, never failed to answer my questions.(I was about 12 years old)
I grew to appreciate and admire both her and her husband as well as many of their staff and visitors. Many of their visitors were later famous musicians like Peter Tosh,
Leroy Sibbles, URoy, and many others. It was always fun to talk to them(the musicians and the Chins) as a youth and get to know more of the music business.
Around that time I started attending Kingston College, where her son Clive, and a young
Agustus Pablo also attended.
One of my most notable purchases at Randy's was the album Stand by Sly and The Family Stone. My record collection ( when I was in Jamaica ) numbered in the thousands
and encompassed almost every style of music I could imagine and most of it came from Randy's. The Wailing Wailers, Marty Robbins, The Heptones, Gaylads, Segovia,Ken Boothe, The Beatles, Patsy Cline, among others. The good thing about Randy's especially on a Saturday aftternoon was that most times you could meet a( later) famous musician there.
The stories I could tell. I have to thank The Chin's specifically Patricia for her kindness and patience with me over the years as a teenager.
I last saw her at the VP store in Jamaica New York a few years back, and her son
Clive Chin at a showing of the Skatalittes movie at Lincoln Center a few years back
I Thank Patricia Chin .

Because there aren't as many people that know she exists then there also won't be as many volunteers at Wiki that know she exists and put effort to write a whole wiki page correctly and factually for free. Thus making it impossible for someone to write a wiki page for her for free. But its ok because she still gets the credit. Snoop is hugging on her. Not her husband. Her husband ain't even get a pic fist bumping Snoop. And that says a lot
M'am, on my behalf, thank you so.much for reggae, it helped build my own personality in a hard time, specially Bob that was the most precious for me❤️❤️.
She did not create reggae music. Thank the creators which are the artists. She was a distributor and promoted the music, but wasn't the only one at all.
