    I am JAMAICAN. But from 12 to 51 grew up in the USA on HOUSE MUSIC. I am now 59 living back in JA 8 years and now just re-discovering reggae culturally. This is VERY new information for me. Great interview. Humble Lady. Old School Chinese Jamaican are way more entrenched in our culture than the new school knock off merch and grocery imports business Chinese on the island .

      Her bank account is also "golden". Naifs everywhere I look. A people perish for want of wisdom.
      The Chinese don't seem to lack in the shrewdness department.
      Meanwhile you talk shit about giving them props because they outsmarted us and still sound "Jamaican" (really! is this supposed to be some supremelly redeeming attribute of this exploiter?) after moving to the US, where they can rip off reggae music more efficiently.

    FYI, VP Records was not the only Record Label in Jamaica, in the 1950s & 60s. There was Downbeat, Trojan Records and few others, created by Coxson & Duke Reid. Di Sound System Man dem was recording songs in Studios and pressing the records, so that the Vinyls can reach Di Sounds Systems to play Inna Di Dancehall, Di Same Night. What made VP Records Special was that they were the only Outlet to release Jamaican Music in The US. As most Jamaican Artists got their Big Break through UK Record Companies, Like Island Records & Blue Beat Label.

Basically how I kept current with dancehall pre internet. On the other hand Jamaican artist are the most hustled, theifed, internationally famous but dying broke artist of all the world over.

      You have to realize that their are two sides to it, producers spend a lot sometimes in artist development,digging deep in their pockets using their personal funds before many of these artists became famous.Its a business and the producers had to recoup what they spend.Remember too, it's the producers who have the link and who have to do the legwork and go knocking on musical doors to get the artist shows, concerts and record deals. That a lot of work and a lot of rejection especially the latter.Its true some of these producers are dishonest, too many of them but we have to be balanced in our argument too
