God keep our Caribbean islands safe during this hurricane season. Cover us and may no wave, depression, storm or any category of hurricane touch our shores, Amen.
Proud to have written this song! Arthur and Rankin guided the writing as well. A collaboration that produced a top tier production! #PicturePerfect✍🏽🎶

The audience is slowly building. The performative think pieces, AI images and captions are growing also. Bro acting like he more affected than everyone mwen menm
There's someone who appeared recently in Saint Lucia on SLU IG who is giving big colonizer energy with their AI-generated posts about Saint Lucia and Caribbean life and I think y'all need to be careful about how y'all accept this person into the culture.
Seeing a lot of “not all men” energy and some of you need to read the room and stay quiet because it’s not the moment or point. A young woman is dead. People are grieving. We’re looking at accountability and a system that keeps failing women. Anything else is just noise…
Highly insensitive. Where is the HUMANITY? We acknowledge the act but I’m sure there are ways to facilitate a safe and organized protest. Y’all want to fail us every time and then pull out archaic nonsense to overrule compassion and it’s upsetting!
The Royal Saint Lucia Police Force advises that no official application or approval has been received for the advertised protest march. Organizers of public marches are reminded to comply with the Public Order Act by obtaining permission from the Commissioner of Police.
Bro West Tech go start with “I hope this email finds you well” and proceed to mention that my 3 pairs of sneakers were shipped to Vincy by accident 😭 ????
So yhhh, I am genuinely appalled at how LOUD that opinion is, because it completely ignores the history behind why we move the way we do. Somehow, this amplifies why I cannot relate to white creators in the region… No shade.
I just feel like, as a region that is overwhelmingly Afro descendant, of course we are going to connect more deeply with our skin, our people, our… Black identity!
So when a white person feels entitled to complain about that lack of connection, as if it’s unfair treatment, it’s wild to me. The Caribbean didn’t just randomly become this way, the legacy of the Atlantic slave trade shaped everything about who we are and how we interact
A full national experience would be impossible but I am generally pleased with the organisation and attempt to ensure that Saint Lucianess was featured from the luxury to local experience.
