Exactly. There isn't a Caribbean country that one can go to where there isn't Jamaican influence. Reggaeton now is highly popular in Cuba, the DR. PR and elsewhere.
Some one screaming that Trinidadian culture dominates the Caribbean is a simpleton and even a xenophobe.
Caribbean cultures overlap and so cross over and some countries have a more dominant music seen for a variety of reasons. But to suggest that Caribbean culture is only reggae or soca can only be made by some North American raised kid who has a very narrow notion of what Caribbean culture is.
In fact one can go to the Seychelles or Mauritius and see Caribbean type cultures. Does this person think that Trinidadians conquered there as well. Or is that the cultures arise under certain conditions no matter whether it is in the Caribbean or the Indian Ocean.
ofcourse we know Jamaican culture is worldwide no one denying that, but you ever think you will see Japanese repping a Guyanese flag? neverrrrrr! look at trinidad getting props
Grenada gets more props, a little spec of an island have more swag than Guyana
no shame, trinis have links to Venezuela but its still Caribbean and Guyanese hate that the Caribbean sea never touched them.
Guyanese couldn't give a damn about whether the Caribbean Sea touches them and are proud of being on the South American continent. The fact that you are ashamed to be proud of being a South American island and prefer to run behind Jamaica which does have the Caribbean Sea is your problem.
FACT. Trinidad, Guyana, Suriname, French Guyane, though linked to South America are CULTURALLY Caribbean. Trinidad shares the flora, fauna, and geological base of South America which is DOES NOT with any Caribbean island.
Soon you will scream that Trinidad took over French Guyane as well.
what you talking about Jamaicans, rep your country you have no arsenal so you deflecting lol
I am not the xenophobe that you are. BTW I am waiting for you to discuss why in 2005 UWI students had to protest that they were BARRED entry to a nightclub in TRINIDAD. Is Trinidad like the South circa 1960!
Guyanese flag like a dutty rag everybody does step on and wipe their sweat on labor day
it worth nothing
Oh Lord., Why don't you go waive a Confederate flag. Oh I forgot Trinidadians waive the Confederate flag when they cannot find a T&T flag. No wonder in 2005 racists still barred blacks from entering some nightclubs on that island.

you deflecting, why you don't discuss Guyana Indians and blacks does fight and kill each other that's why all the Indians run up Richmond hill cuz the blacks was beating them and killing them under Forbes Bunham? answer that.
In 1964 blacks and Indians was killing each other
culture stealers!
