From the nature island to the international stage, join us as we sit down with the multifaceted Jael Joseph from Dominica, whose journey is as rich as the music she champions. Our episode kicks off with tales from Jael's upbringing, her eclectic career trajectory, and her fierce advocacy for Dominican Culture, Music, Producers and Artists.

We also discuss her film on the Kalinago people, the indigenous inhabitants of Dominica. Jael brings to the fore the challenges they face, from the misrepresentation by colonizers to the pressing need to preserve their language and traditions. The Kalinago's sustainable agricultural practices and deep-rooted spirituality are central to understanding the richness of the Caribbean's diverse heritage.
