Bonus cut this week: I'm just finishing up at the Caribbean Film Fest.Saw several docs about spirituality and music. I don't know enough about Caribbean music to post, but I do know African music. So here's some Garifuna music that developed in Central America (Guatemala Honduras and Belize) from African, Caribbean and Indigenous traditions. The video shows children making music and dancing, Enjoy. https://youtu.be/_KgzUkucqII
I got to spend a year working in Guadeloupe, so I bought some random CDs to hear what was local. Here's one; start your weekend with a bit of carnival!

(This is actually from Martinique, but there are strong cultural ties between Guadalupe and Martinique.)
@jztusk Thank you. As someone said in one of the docs. Our families were on the same ship and the enslavers went from island to island dropping people off, so there's no wonder that there are similarities among all the islands.
