I married a Jamaican heritage lady in England and emigrated to Canada with her in 1986. Visited Jamaica in '88, staying with the family in Red Hills, Kingston, which admittedly is one of the better neighbourhoods. Being a white guy with the family I got overwhelmingly good vibes. We travelled all over the island on the mini buses with the locals, Milk River baths, Spanish Town, Lucea, Mo'Bay, just a beautiful people in a beautiful country. But of course it is a poor country and it has a high murder rate even now. Now my kids take their kids down to visit family and enjoy Hellshire beach, festival, bammy and fish fried on the beach. Unfortunately hurricanes are a thing, which effects my desire to live there.

We need that Wendall visits Medellin, Colombia travel vlog. It's hectic out there. Cheers

Really enjoyed this one Wendall. My favourite of the Jamaican series so far. Has a really good vibe about the place and the music is good too.

[@Dadeets]

Absolutely stunning episode these guys at 1Brinks studios so proud of their productions and ambitious. It’s a travesty that so many people with wealth pass thru these areas as tourists and could kit out such a studio. That’s a genuine tourist , someone who wants to support the Jamaicans of today as well as the memory of a past legend. Your so right Wendell - celebrating marleys memory etc is great but visitors should step out of the tourist comfort zone and go seek the people trying to achieve greatness and using music NOW to speak to the rest of the world. These young lads are the voice of Jamaica today. They should be heard and they should be supported by the people visiting (and beyond). The state is determined to force poverty on the very people who have the drive to be so much more and the creativity to make Jamaican culture relevant again.

[@WendallExplores]

Great comment

[@Britec09]

I walked all round Trenchtown and many other places in Jamaica. Never had any major problems.

[@stringybarkin]

Thanks for taking us on this journey Wendell, respect to all and regards from the sth of Australia 🦘🦘

[@BigdazzaC]

Wow what a great vlog Wendall got me wanting to visit Jamaica especially Trenchtown. The people and the vibes are something you don't get everyday and some very wise words spoken by the residents . Mouth was drooling over the food one big reason I want to visit the areas. I have been brought up listening to reggae and dance hall music my children love it and me too my little boys 4 and 7months old love when the reggae music or dance hall plays. Probably the best vlog I've watched of yours yet keep up the good work and bless up Trenchtown and Jamaica

[@Samoraclarke]

Love the vibe bro ❤❤

[@drumstick74]

Thanks, Wendall! It's good to see the young guys going for the music, it seems to come natural to them. Warming to see they embrace the legacy of Bob Marley. 👍 Good vibes from the elderly gentleman at the end😀 Impressive that Casio actually hired individual musicians to program the first drum loops.♫🥁

[@liamwatt3691]

Big up yourself for promoting the talent in jamaica boss man .. nuff talent deya! 🫡🙌🏼

[@bionicnichola9251]

Great vlogg Wendall, great adventure 👍 Reggie is certainly enjoying himself over there with Nigel. Glad you caught up with him, Reg is a lovely lad. Just a shame you never put him on your video.

[@pwhittak88]

What an awesome video, one of my favourites yet. I’m enjoying your exploration outside of the UK.

Old gentlemen at the end full of wisdom. That’s why we should always listen to our elders. Not all but most. I’m English but now that older gentleman is now my Jamaican grandfather

I visited Trenchtown in 2004 when in Kingston to watch West Indies v England Test Match. It's pretty rough but I'd say that Tivoli Gardens and Jones Town were worse.

Such a shame the Jamaican government keep their tax paying citizens in poverty when their 2022 gdp was 14.5 million and the main export is oil. You know the government and western nations are making serious bank from this idyllic nation. Corruption is a sin. Great vid Wendell

[@albin2232]

It's a failed state. A failed state: * Loses control over its territory and borders * Cannot provide basic security and services * Lacks effective governance and institutions * Experiences widespread corruption and crime * Suffers from economic collapse and poverty * May have internal conflict or civil war

That guy is talking nonsense! Most normal Jamaican people with pets do name their dogs! You’ll find names like Shaggy etc. - normal dog names!

[@fab3368]

Lots of desperation and not much music I am afraid, cannot share the same enthusiasm. Sounds like people need more a political uprise, rather than complacency on such poor conditions. Seems like the good old days of reggae are really gone.

[@EscapeWithMe82]

I'm nearly halfway through this video, I watched the first one in Jamaica and in the first 2 minutes I said nah, this man gon die in Jamaica he ain't coming home! 😂 looks so good over there though I can't believe the amazing reception you're getting from people!
