First, Jamaicans need to make music that the world wants to hear again.

[@abrahammuliro3938]

I am in Kenya , i listen to Jamaican music all the time ,so the world is listening

[@juelz713]

Wyclef is right, I think a lot of Jamaican artists would be rich if they own there own music

[@EightyFour-s3z]

If they studied their trade, they would, as well. Instead they create mixup and get involved in violence and degradation.

[@TROYD9669]

They don't want to learn that part of the business they want the hype first then and quick money then when it's not working they talking about business when it's too late

[@andrereid4937]

its more complex than that we are not a culture of business yes people do business in jamaica but we are not a culture of business thats is why even the most economicaly impact business in jamaica the very Goverment dont have a strong hold on it

[@douglasjoseph2097]

Facts this man is a genius money 💰 maker

[@kurtwalters4754]

This why I said the government must invest more in the youth through music.Teach more youths to play instruments.Apart from becoming a gangster most jamaican youths are interested in music which is very marketable worldwide.Just like track and field don't be afraid to invest in music.more Bob Marley are around,just Give them the opportunity.

[@bjvu9460]

The government didnt invest in bob marley, beenie man, bounty killer, sean paul, TOK, lady saw, capleton etc and for some reason they made it to the top . So, why would the government now need to invest in music when music had done well without them. The reason why music is creative is due to the fact that people invested in themselves and had to struggle to make it ... Bringing the government into the equation will only screw it up

Wyclef left out a MAJOR part of that Killing Me Softly story! Like the part where they used Roberta’s song without any permission! That resulted in a huge lawsuit where Columbia Records was ordered to sign over 100% of the publishing to Roberta and the other original song composers. So please take what Wyclef says with a huge grain of salt. He is omitting a few facts here and there🫣

[@sophiawilly25]

Them obsession with Jamaicans is major crazy claiming and believed whole heartedly they helped Jamaica 🇯🇲 gain independence it’s crazy in new York in the US with Haitian Americans of Haitian descent parents

[@nickdominic9103]

First things first big up Wycled but as a black production why are you feeling the need to mention Haiti’s Economic struggles as a premise to this interview? It’s unnecessary and not very indicative of educated forward thinking black people being part of your production team.
